Host David Roth thinks the solutions are closer to home than you might think. On the Bold Ideas podcast, he'll be joined by co-host Meg Polyte and guests with deep experience in Vermont and around the nation to discuss the bold ideas, grounded in Vermont know-how and guided by our State's motto "Freedom and Unity," that can help us not only survive... but thrive.
