We’ll hear why the state employee health insurance plan canceled a trial with a popular obesity treatment. We’ll take a look back at the two years since state lawmakers enacted a near-total abortion ban. And we’ll learn about a West Virginia queer film festival.

Plus, why are schools receiving so many threats? Congress honors a West Virginia space pioneer. And the Mothman Festival is upon us.

Curtis Tate is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
