On this West Virginia Week, protesting federal cuts – who’s protesting and why. We’ll tell you about the push to stabilize the state’s public employees insurance agency, or PEIA. Also, the governor’s efforts to change what SNAP benefits can buy. And, tips for telling a tall tale, if you plan to enter – or attend – Vandalia Gathering’s popular Liar’s Contest.

Maria Young is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
