On this episode with Neal and Julie, the duo dive into a whirlwind of political, cultural, and local topics. Neal discusses the importance of agility in leadership, especially during crises, and shares his support for a line-item veto to preserve the governor’s emergency fund. The conversation also touches on proposed SNAP restrictions that would eliminate soda and candy purchases, and Governor Little’s surprising full-throated support for parental choice in education—leaving some of his usual allies feeling sidelined.
They explore the disconnect between the Idaho Democratic Party and Idaho voters, reflect on media bias, and joke about CNN’s reluctance to share positive Trump poll numbers. Julie and Neal also analyze the optics and public reaction to Jeff Bezos sending a group of high-profile women—including Katy Perry and Gayle King—on a brief space trip, and question whether it did more harm than good in advancing women’s roles in space exploration.
From playful impersonations and critiques of social media habits to deep discussions on immigration self-deportation apps and concerns about judicial interference in deportation cases, this episode is packed. They also touch on property listings, lawn care timing, the Illuminate the Night event at Town & Country Gardens, and end with a lighthearted note on taxes, candy nostalgia, and reading “Cat in the Hat.”
Always unpredictable, often insightful, and thoroughly entertaining—this episode is a true slice of the Neal and Julie experience.
