The Great Idaho Show

The Heart and Mind of Idaho

Idaho is changing.

The Great Idaho Show exists because understanding Idaho requires both heart and mind.

The heart of Idaho is found in its people, communities, values, and traditions.

The mind of Idaho is found in the ideas and decisions shaping our future.

Each week, host Dylan Stocker talks with leaders, experts, and everyday Idahoans about the issues shaping the Gem State—and the people who make it worth protecting.
