On today's show...
SDPB's Lee Strubinger shares his interview with Sen. John Thune. The senator is one of the top contenders for the Senate minority leader position.
Thune discusses why he's running, his unique leadership style and the South Dakota values he says he'd bring to governing the Senate.
Our Dakota Political Junkies offer their analysis on Thune's leadership bid. We talk about the other candidates in the field and the difference between Senate and House leadership.
We then visit the University of South Dakota's Virtual Reality Lab. Young Ae Kim, Ph.D., shares how it helps art students visualize and immerse themselves in their own work.
We'll hear from a graduate student who uses the technology for her studies.
Plus, you can sweeten your pancakes or your coffee with South Dakota tree sap. We talk to John Ball, Ph.D., about his upcoming maple syrup workshop and learn his recipe for "sap on tap," a drink he says is better than soda.
