Trump’s $5,000 Checks & Some Guy From Idaho Todd Achilles Joins BBB

This week on Beer, Buds & the Big Sky, Todd Achilles crosses the border from Idaho and joins the boys.

Achilles is an independent candidate for U.S. Senate in Idaho and an Army veteran who argues that the two-party system isn't working. We talk about why he's running as an independent, the national debt, affordability, healthcare, public lands, and what he thinks both parties are getting wrong.

Then Mike, Ryan, Ed, and Steve dive into Trump's proposed $5,000 dividend checks, John Fetterman's appearance at a Republican convention, what the latest midterm polling does — and doesn't — tell us, new Montana political ads from Kurt Alme and Aaron Flint, and Costco rationing motor oil.

Plus final thoughts and the usual chaos.

No script. No filter. Nothing's off the table.
