Legendary Democratic lawmaker Frank Kloucek returns to the Lounge, this time as a candidate for the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission.

Reporter Todd Epp, a regular contributor to The Dakota Scout, also makes a special appearance.

With Scout founders Joe Sneve and Jonathan Ellis, the men discuss the 2026 election, the 25 year anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001, and take a walk down memory lane to discuss horse slaughter and smoking ban legislation of yesteryear.
