In the Moment

Poetry, populism & purchasing power

On today's show...

We speak with two Aberdeen Central High School students about their award-winning news production. We learn what led them to the anchor desk and where they're going next.

Jon Lauck and Jon Schaff recap the 56th annual Dakota Conference. They talk about the history of "big-P" and "small-p" populism and how knowing your history helps you view current events in context.

Joe Santos, Ph.D., dives into the U.S. dollar's purchasing power at home and on the international stage. We also look at the likelihood of future trade wars.

The president of the South Dakota State Poetry Society talks about the community she's found through the solitary act of writing poetry.

Plus, we get a peek into South Dakota's Brand Book and preview SDPB's "Dakota Life Detours Branding South Dakota."
