Show Notes
Join Mark and Joleen on Happening in Boise as they navigate the growing pains of the Treasure Valley with a healthy dose of skepticism and a side of dry humor. This week, the duo dives into the Idaho Legislature's latest budget maneuvers and their impact on National Guard tuition, alongside a troubling trend of DUI incidents involving patrol cars in Nampa. They break down the February 2026 real estate data--where "strategic normalization" still feels like a stretch for the average buyer--and celebrate local success stories like Boise High's own Olympic star, Sammy Smith. From reviewing new dining spots like Pig Latin and Raibu Sushi to previewing BSU's must-win basketball matchup against Wyoming, this episode covers the headlines that matter to locals while bracing for a "volatile" late-winter weather pattern. It's an honest, informative look at life in the city, whether you're dodging I-84 traffic or just trying to find a decent taco in Eagle.
