The show begins with a look at the Practical Farmers of Iowa conference, with board president-elect Mark Peterson of Stanton, Iowa, and audio from the keynote speaker, John Kempf. Greene County farmer and KHOI member George Naylor responds to Kempf's ideas. Then we turn to politics, with Cecile Richards of Planned Parenthood Action Fund in support of Hillary Clinton and Kim Weaver, Democrat from Sheldon, in support of herself as the candidate who might topple Steve King from his post as District 4 representative to U.S. Congress. We conclude with studio guests Allyson Walter and Crystal Davis of the Ames Convention and Visitors Bureau, which is revamping its look online and in print. Get updates on all the events you'll want to attend this February.
