  • Big City Verdict, the Best Pumpkin Spice, and Are Boiseans Rich Now?

    Big City Verdict, the Best Pumpkin Spice, and Are Boiseans Rich Now?
    Sep 20 2024
    Host Lindsay Van Allen and executive producer Frankie Barnhill are rounding up the biggest stories of the week. First off, they have lingering questions about the $4 million verdict in favor of Big City Coffee. What does this mean for Boise State University? And we’re feeling some economic whiplash after news that Boise-area family income now tops $100,000 — even while our housing is less affordable than California. Plus, Lindsay finds the best pumpkin spice coffee in the Treasure Valley and Frankie suggests a nerdy movie marathon to mark the start of fall. Want some more Boise news?

    Goathead Fest is Dead. Here’s What’s Replacing It
    Sep 19 2024
    On Sunday from 12-5 p.m., no cars are allowed on a mile-long stretch of Latah. That’s because the Boise Bicycle Project is holding a new event called Open Streets Boise — replacing Goathead Fest that’s long been held downtown. But will this festival be as popular among cyclists? We’re chatting with BBP’s Nina Pienaar to learn more about the lofty transit goals behind this new version of the event.

    Sep 18 2024
    It seems like everyone’s buzzing about the “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” the hit reality show. But are these women really telling Mormon stories, or is it sensationalized drama? Host Lindsay Van Allen is an ex-Mormon and has a lot of thoughts about how the show portrays her former faith. She’s chatting with City Cast Salt Lake’s Ali Vallarta about whether the women are actually Mormon and if this show is actually a good thing for the LDS church.
