Far-Right Plea Deal, Early Voting, and Boise’s Lackluster BBQ
Happy Friday! Emma’s chatting about the stories of the week with KTVB’s Brian Holmes and City Cast Boise’s very own Blake Hunter. We cover the news about white nationalist leader Kyle Chapman’s plea deal, early and absentee voting so far, and the one year anniversary of Zachary Snow’s killing by Boise Police. Plus, we get into what’s pissing us off — and what’s making us happy — about Boise this week.
