This Christmas, we wanted to reflect on the year that was and the year that's ahead of us. On this episode of Plain Talk, Chad Oban and I talk about the highlights (and lowlights) of 2024.

The Doug Burgum era of North Dakota politics came to an end, and the Kelly Armstrong era has begun. The North Dakota Republican Party went through a bruising primary season but emerged after the general election as dominant as ever. At the national level, former President Donald Trump became president once again.

We talk about all that, and more, and look ahead to what 2025 might have in store for us.

And, most of all, Chad and I and everyone involved in producing the Plain Talk podcast hope you and yours have a wonderful holiday.
