Description

It's hot in the Skate Shack, Joanna's glasses are fogging up, and we're running on fumes — welcome to our last episode before the primary. Andy takes the agenda for once and Joanna delivers a much-needed PAC 101: what an IE PAC actually is, how coordinating PACs differ, and how independent expenditures can sometimes backfire on the very candidates they're boosting. Plus: a campaign outing to Bolton Valley (fire tower, chairlift, and yes, an orange creamsicle Creemee), and a deep dive into Vermont's mysterious two-camel population. Then we replay our conversation with Tim Ashe, candidate for State Auditor. #TheresNoAInCreemee #VTPoli #VermontPolitics #VTPrimary #VTElections2026 #PAC101 #CampaignFinance #IEPAC #AllieRichards #BeccaBalint #TimAshe #StateAuditor #BoltonValley #LakeChamplainIslands #VermontHealthcare #Creemee #SkateShack #VermontCamels
