Cox's New Groove, Proper Brewing Moving, and Good Grass
Mitt Romney for president? Maybe in out-of-touch Democrats’ wildest dreams. Host Ali Vallarta and executive producer Emily Means localize the big political news from the weekend: Utah Republicans respond to Biden backing out and Gov. Spencer Cox endorses Trump. Plus, Proper Brewing’s for-sale sign, Salt Lake Tribune reporters unionize, and Utah drops a new lawn.
