Show Notes

Skip Rutherford’s back for his first 2023 appearance on the Southern Fried Podcast. 

On the heels of Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ 100th day in office and the close of a whirlwind Legislative session, Skip and Rex Nelson discuss the highlights of the new administration thus far. 

With former Gov. Asa Hutchinson set to officially kick-off his presidential campaign, Rex and Skip analyze the field of White House hopefuls. They also discuss past presidential bids by Arkansans, including former President Bill Clinton’s improbable rise to the Oval Office. 

Shifting gears, Rex and Skip round out the episode with a look at recent economic developments across Arkansas.
