utah things to do

Episode 139 Snotty Folds

Standard

Chris apologizes in advance for his nasty cold and snot filled everything during the show. Sadly our interview had to reschedule last notice, but we had plenty of Utah related things to discuss.

Sundance Film Festival is right now! Jess accidentally became an Indie Supporter of the festival in her fervor to buy tickets this year. Not a terrible mistake at all. If you are here for the festival and want to get away from the crowds in Park City, we discuss the many winter activities Utah has to offer. Thanks to the Provo Daily Herald for giving us an amazing list. The number of snow shoe trails and ice skating rings in Utah County is truly impressive.

We discuss the upcoming legislative session with our first dive into potential bills already set to be discussed in the session. Don’t worry, many many more will be coming. Representative Ben McAdams holds the first open town hall for the 4th district in years. He is met with a lot of questions about the shut down.

Utah has quite the colored history it turns out too. It turns out that in recent history our government has made huge boneheaded mistakes, like installing pumps in the Great Salt Lake. Jeremy asks the question “are the whales responsible for the floods of the 80’s?” We discuss some of the biggest blemishes in Utah’s history including the Japanese internment camp and Topaz Mountain and not one but two different massacres. There is more, but you have to listen to find out.

We wrap up the show with something amazing, that needs more attention that it gets. The Utah Cheese Awards, no that isn’t a mistake, there is actually an award competition for cheese made in Utah. We are on a mission to make sure more of the amazing cheese makers in Utah are included and participate. It turns out the FLDS folks in Southern Utah make some of the best cheeses (and the only of some types).

Utah’s One Thing: Dr. Henstrom, Utah Facial Plastics

Standard

Since we started our show in 2016, we have been asking our guests at the end of every New Utah interview, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

Dr. Doug Henstrom told us in episode 118 that there are just so many amazing things in Utah to do. Dr. Henstrom is a little biased with his football background and told us that the one thing someone visiting Utah should do before leaving is go to a BYU football game.

He said besides the setting that by far, the atmosphere is absolute tops!

Utah’s One Thing: Richie T. Steadman DJ, Actor, Podcaster, and RFH Producer,

Standard

At the end of every New Utah interview we like to ask our guests, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

We were super excited to finally be joined by the busiest man on the planet for episode 57. We actually didn’t think there was anyone busier than our own Jessica, til we met Richie Steadman! Richie had two things that people must do before leaving Utah. Richie said that if you’re visiting Utah, take time to talk to someone who is LDS (aka Mormon) because it will give a better understanding of the culture. He also said head south and hike the Narrows in Zion and the Delicate Arch.
