Episode Details

Yesterday morning, Governor Tim Walz announced that he will no longer be running for a third term so he can spend the rest of his term addressing issues of fraud and serving Minnesotans to the best of his ability. Host Sean McPherson is joined by local host, performer, and business owner Tane Danger to break down what this means for the governor's race, statewide politics, and local politics this year. Later, Sean hears from five other City Cast Twin Cities contributors and executive producer Anna Weggel on what they think the biggest news stories will be in the Twin Cities this year.
