The Show regularly checks in with the Editorial Board of the Arizona Republic to talk about the big issues facing the state and the region — featured in the newspaper’s Viewpoints section.

Republic Editorial Director Phil Boas has a new column that addresses an effort by the Evanston, Illinois, City Council to put tax revenues from legalized recreational marijuana sales toward reparations for African American residents.

Boas joined The Show for his weekly appearance and began by explaining what Evanston leaders are hoping to accomplish.
