The MoLeg Podcast

It’s Groundhog Day at the Capitol. We break down Senate rule changes, resurfacing legislative fights, and leadership shifts—plus fallout from the canceled State of the Judiciary and what the Missouri Constitution actually requires. Executive updates, judicial news, gas prices, political headlines, Royals chatter, breakfast rankings, and a big America 250 spotlight bringing America’s founding documents to Kansas City.
Same Capitol. New week. Very familiar vibes.

The latest episode breaks down recent developments involving the Missouri Supreme Court and its evolving dynamic with the legislature—most notably the ripple effects that led to the cancellation of the State of the Judiciary address. Rachael and Jake also cover committee action on income tax proposals and MSHSAA-related legislation, check in on winter weather and road conditions across the state, and discuss the ongoing conversation around the Kansas City Royals stadium. As always, the episode wraps with some lighter Capitol chatter, including standout burger recommendations in Jefferson City.

“On this week’s episode of the MoLeg Podcast, Jake and Rachael cover ethics votes, early budget action, and stalled appointments at the Capitol. They check in on MoDOT’s winter prep, preview upcoming judicial news, run through gas prices and headlines from around Missouri, and wrap with an America 250 road trip stop and the week ahead under the Dome.”
