THE SIXTY-SIXTH INSTALLMENT OF WIDE RIGHT TURN FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE...

- Tom Kelly and Joey Correnti team up once again and dive into some of the potentially problematic policies of the President.

In his second term as President, Donald Trump has shepherded forward many policies that are epically beneficial for the nation and its people, but how you get somewhere is often as important (if not more important) than if you get there at all, and the ends don't always justify the means.

- What's with all the doom scrolling and outrage addiction? Are your digital interactions designed to being you despair?

It's time to push away from the table and quit gorging ourselves on what we’re being fed!

THE LATEST EPISODE FROM OUR SERIES "RURAL WYOMING MATTERS!"

JOEY SITS DOWN WITH HOLLY LAKE AND THEY DISCUSS:

Troy Lake, born in Newcastle and raised in Rawlins, who lived for years in Dubois, is the owner of Elite Diesel, and was convicted of conspiring to violate the federal Clean Air Act for disabling EPA-mandated emissions systems on diesel trucks.

These systems are notorious for causing engine failures, slashing fuel efficiency, and burdening truckers as well as small businesses with costly repairs. Troy’s modifications weren’t about breaking the law, they were about keeping essential services and livelihoods operational while actually reducing emissions, not converting the emissions into something that isn’t tested for (such as urea instead of nitrogen oxide) successfully increasing the fuel efficiency, operational capability and dependability of the vehicles he worked on to include many municipally and government owned vehicles.

His work directly supported:

Despite these contributions, Troy was sentenced to 12 months and one day in federal prison, fined $52,500, and branded a felon for life. He’s currently held at FCI Florence, a federal prison facility, for a non-violent regulatory offense, a punishment that far outweighs his actions.

THE SIXTY-THIRD INSTALLMENT OF WIDE RIGHT TURN FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE...

- Wyoming Going Nuclear! (Part 2) There has been a lot of heated debate on the nuclear future for Wyoming. Campbell County Commissioner Scott Clem pens a tongue in cheek op-ed that combines concern with comedy and some people just don't get the joke.

- Expressions in the Minerals Committee caused “nuclear meltdowns” bringing into question adherence and application of decorum on both sides of the dais, as almost no one addresses the draft legislation directly and the question of "is this the Wyoming policy we want regardless of Radiant's involvement" remains on the table without committee discussion.

The 2025 legislative session saw House Bill 121 (Hospital Pricing Transparency) end up only a couple of votes shy of heading to the Governor's desk. The bill's chief sponsor, Representative Daniel Singh, believes in the necessity of this legislation and sits down to talk about the hurdles the bill faced, the intent of bringing such legislation to the floor, and possible changes to the previous proposal in its potential resurrection in 2026.

THE SIXTY-SECOND INSTALLMENT OF WIDE RIGHT TURN FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE...

- The political ideology of the NEA, the WEA, and the U.S. Department of Education have been on full display for decades as they claim to be focused on improving education and the environment in which our children learn, yet what has been openly displayed is a money machine focused on hiding behind children in order to carry out their political intent on your dime. Yes, even here in Wyoming, all the way down to the local district level.

- Tom and The Jailbird make some predictions on the outcome and effects of the lawsuit against Wyoming's Superintendent of Public Instruction Megan Degenfelder regarding Wyoming's school choice scholarship program a day before a Laramie County Judge issues a ruling to continue to block the distribution of funds.

THE SIXTY-FIRST INSTALLMENT OF WIDE RIGHT TURN FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE...

- Senate Leadership is continually taking heat for things no one seems to be able to clearly quantify, turning down the volume may be the key to having a successful and productive budget session in 2026.

- Wyoming Going Nuclear! There has been a lot of heated debate on the nuclear future for Wyoming. Some expressions have even caused “meltdowns” over jobs, money, dumping nuclear waste down abandoned mines, and even the fear of creating Ninja Turtles. However, this is not a single issue with a single answer. Tom and The Jailbird dissect what we know, and more importantly what we don't know, about the many projects and concerns about Wyoming going nuclear.

And now for something a little different…

OUR FIRST ITERATION IN A SERIES OF MONTHLY INTERVIEWS WITH WYOMING'S LONE VOICE IN THE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

- HR1, also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, is a "Budget Reconciliation Bill" but what is a reconciliation bill and what rules govern it? 

- The public land sales provisions of HR1 are confusing, concerning, and in many instances vague, Harriet Hageman clears up some of the processes mentioned in specific provisions and answers a few fairly direct questions about the proposal.
