Show Notes
Welcome to Happening in Pocatello, where hosts Mark and Joleen navigate the construction zones and quirky contradictions of Idaho's Gate City. This week, we're dissecting the logistical mystery of Presidents' Day garbage pickup, Sunnyside Elementary's potato-fueled fundraising, and the "catastrophic" Medicaid cuts facing the community. From a local MMA fighter's legal troubles and the heartbreak of the ISU Bengals losing the "King Spud" trophy to an honest review of the 5th Street Bagelry's parking nightmare, we provide a grounded yet slightly cynical look at the news that actually matters. We also dive into the latest on the eternal Center Street Underpass project, the reality of the 2026 local housing market, and a weather forecast that proves winter isn't finished with us just yet. Join us for a balanced mix of community updates, local drama, and the occasional reality check on life in a town that's basically one giant construction zone with a university attached.
