Rep. Dennis Riddell is known in the General Assembly as legislator for his effectiveness, persistence, and his Christian faith.  However, the Alamance County Republican was on a far different path before he was brought to his knees at age 21 and was transformed forever.  Rep. Riddell also talks about how he met his wife Polly, a family tragedy they endured, and his career as a social studies teacher, a merchant marine, and as a state legislator.  

Skye and Brian also unpack a relatively quiet spring break week in North Carolina politics, including the continuing Rep. Tricia Cotham news, a lawsuit filed, a high profile political endorsement, TOTW, and more.
