On this West Virginia Week, we take a look at the dramatic ending of the state Legislature’s 2026 regular session. We’ll hear from Gov. Patrick Morrisey about his legislative successes, as well as from lawmakers and our reporters about what did and didn’t make it out of session.
Also, we hear about Marshall University’s reversal on the dissolution of its swim team. And we’ll learn about the state’s data center developments, including a major agreement and residents’ frustrations.
Inside Appalachia also gives us a look at the tradition of locally-made chocolate Easter eggs.
Chris Schulz is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
