    Resort towns across the west saw record-breaking real estate prices last year. Housing has always been hard to come by in the region, but new data shows the problem is getting worse.

    Will Walkey of the Mountain West News Bureau reports.

    Last Thursday, depositors were lining up outside Silicon Valley Bank in California after pulling out $42 billion before the bank closed down and was taken over by federal regulators.

    Then on Sunday, New York's signature bank went under the control of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. So what does that mean for Idahoans and Idaho banks and credit unions?

    Jason Norris, the Principal of Research and Portfolio Management at Ferguson Wellman, joined Idaho Matters to help answer those questions.

    A closer look at where our water comes from and why rates could go up Mar 14, 2023

    The company that provides the water for much of the Treasure Valley is asking for a 24% rate hike to help pay for improvements to the large system that provides drinking water to over 105,000 homes and businesses.

    Some of that includes paying for a new tank for the Columbia Water Treatment Plant, plus the Whistle Pig Storage Tank, and for something called “ice pigging” on the Bench. All that is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to getting drinking water to your tap.

    So we wanted to start with a question, where does our water come from? And how does it get our kitchens and bathrooms?

    Madeline Wyatt, the Manager of Communications, Community Relations and Conservation for the Idaho Operation of Veolia North America joined Idaho Matters to help us out.

    How do you bring Amelia Earhart and a haunted radio to kids in all parts of Idaho? Plus, teach them about trust and taking chances, with a little bit of history thrown in?

    Theater For Youth is doing exactly that, with a traveling production for 100,000 K-5 students, including refugees from Africa, Mexico, and Columbia - many of whom are watching their very first theater production.

    Our Morning Edition host George Prentice got the unique opportunity to watch this roadshow and Idaho Matters tags along as he heads into Silver Sage Elementary to find out more.

    'Clean Food, Messy Life:' An author interview with Jamie Truppie Mar 14, 2023
    Show notes
    ( Jamie Truppi)

    Food can act as a bridge, bringing people together. But it can also be a barrier, especially when food limitations cause conflict in your life.

    Author Jamie Truppi has been on a food journey since she moved back to Idaho in her early 20s. As she went from being lactose intolerant to vegetarian to vegan - she also became a wife, a mother, dealt with career changes, travel and death and she’s written about all this in her new food memoir "Clean Food, Messy Life: A Food Lover's Conscious Journey Back to Self."

    Truppi will be at Rediscovered Books "Read Local" gathering at the Boise Towne Square Mall on Friday. She joined Idaho Matters to talk more about her book and the upcoming event.

    Native American law is a complex and complicated section of law for any college legal student - with the intersection of state and federal agencies and tribal courts and nations.

    The University of Idaho has created a College of Law Program with a Native American Law Emphasis, which students can only apply for after completing one full year of law school. The U of I says the program is “for indigenous people instead of simply about them.”

    Director of the Native American Law Program, Dylan Hedden-Nicely, who is an associate professor at the College of Law, along with three students who graduated from the program, Cody Artis from the Navajo Nation and Jeannette Moody and Winter Hayes with the Nez Perce Tribe joined Idaho Matters to talk more.
