We also get an overview of what's different for this year's extension of the 2018 Farm Bill with Harvest Public Media reporter Rachel Cramer.
Then, we discuss the lives and legacies of Iowans Bill Knapp and John Colloton, who recently passed away. We also hear about the questions that will headline a December event held by the new University of Iowa Center for Intellectual Freedom.
