Buckle in, geeks, because the Utah Supreme Court is hearing a case that could have mega impacts for Salt Lake County voters. Lead producer Emily Means joins host Ali Vallarta to break it down and get you hyped on redistricting. Plus, put this scorching-hot weekend to good use and help heat map Salt Lake City. And donate some blood, while you’re at it.


Volunteer to heatmap with Salt Lake City one day between July 11 and 31.


ARUP will begin accepting donations from men who have sex with men on Tuesday, July 18. Donate any day in July and receive a $10 Megaplex gift card.
