With ski season approaching, Utah resorts are hoping for more snow after a disappointing winter. The hosts discuss upcoming openings and what a stronger season could mean for skiers, snowboarders, and the communities that depend on winter recreation.

Salt Lake City is considering changes to its “complete streets” ordinance as it adjusts to new state requirements governing road projects.

With Greg's experience as an avid cyclist, he shares some interesting ideas on how local governments could strike a better balance between vehicles and non-vehicles on the road.

Following KSL’s exclusive investigation and reporting on a Utah officer’s misuse of automatic license plate reader data, lawmakers and advocacy groups are discussing new safeguards.

A new warning from White House that congressional Democrats’ planned investigations could be illegal has many legal scholars scratching their heads.

Topics on this episode of KSL's Inside Sources include: 

The average new vehicle now costs more than $51,000! For that price, the heated seats better cook dinner and the backup camera better find some hidden treasure, right!? At the same time, a new review of data from TransUnion and the Federal Reserve found that people living in Utah added the most debt to their personal finances between the beginning of July and the end of September. What's driving Utahns to take on so much additional debt? WalletHub writer and analyst Chip Lupo explains.

The West built two giant reservoirs: Lake Powell and Lake Mead. But what if there isn’t enough water to save both? Which one gets priority, and what would that mean for Utah? That’s the question raised in a new Deseret News story. And it puts a pretty stark choice on the table: How do you manage a river when everyone who depends on it needs more water than it can deliver? For details on this idea, Holly and Greg turn to Utah's Colorado River commissioner, Gene Shawcroft.

Housing remains a top priority for Utahns in terms of both affordability and inventory. Two stories in the news caught our eyes today, so we turn to Russell Faucette, owner of The Stern Team and co-founder of Omada Real Estate. He discusses a rise in condos being for sale plus a downward trend of home prices across the board.

Utah ski and snowboard resorts are preparing for what will hopefully be a really good snow season. We obviously want a good winter for the water, but snow sports are so popular that it's good for them too. Ahead of the season officially starting, SkiUtah held a news conference today previewing the season. Greg and Holly talk about their excitement for winter and dip into a part of the conference.

There are some sacrifices we can see: a uniform, a deployment, an empty chair at the dinner table. And there are others we may never fully understand: time away from a child who’s growing up, the strain of being far from home when someone you love needs you, memories that don’t fade when the uniform comes off. On this Veterans Day, we pause to honor the men and women who have served. Not because we know every part of their story, but because we recognize that service asks something of a person and of the people who love them.

On this Veterans Day, Inside Sources takes some time to honor those who've served. We discuss some of the specific challenges veterans face and the reason why community is so important for those leaving active service. Then we get insights on the specific resources and support available here in Utah; Utah Veteran Affairs Deputy Commissioner Cory Pearson joins the hosts to explain. The conversation wraps up with Inside Sources executive producer Andy Cupp explaining the significance of the red poppy on this important day.

After an amazing run on the radio -- 40 years on the airwaves and close to 37 years here at KSL -- our own Amanda Dickson is hanging up the mic and is taking a well-deserved break in retirement. You've listened to her on Utah's Morning News for decades, but she'll sign off one last time tomorrow. Ahead of her final day, Inside Sources chats with KSL NewsRadio's Amanda Dickson about her long career, her best memories, why radio is still important in 2026, and her message to the thousands of faithful listeners who've followed her for so many years.

As Republicans prepare to be in the minority in Congress next year, they've picked their leadership. And let's just say the more things change, the more they stay the same. At least that's how Greg and Holly feel about the choices. Senate Republicans picked Senator John Thune to lead them -- he's been the Senate minority leader for a while now. In the House, Republicans picked Representative Jim Jordan. Holly and Greg believe these choices ignore what happened in last week's election, but also hypothesize that upcoming leadership elections for Democrats won't be much better.

41 years behind bars — much of it on death row. Now Douglas Carter is out on bail, and tested crime-scene DNA doesn’t match him. But Utah County prosecutors are still pursuing charges in the 1985 killing of Eva Olesen. Carter's conviction was overturned and now a judge is weighing whether his disputed confession can be used at trial. So what does that DNA evidence mean and what would justify taking this case back to a jury? KSL Legal Analyst Greg Skordas answers Holly's questions.

A child tells you someone in their video-game chat needs help. Do you assume it’s somebody making up a story, or do you take it seriously? This story floored us this morning -- it's an update to a story we first brought you last week about a Utah teen who was found in Oregon after being missing for a year and a half. According to NBC News, she was found after reaching out to another teen through an online game. The teen lived in Colorado but told his mom about this call for help. Within 24 hours, the Utah teen had been found there in Oregon. Missing for 17 months… and found thanks to a conversation inside an online game. It's absolutely crazy!

What do we hope our kids carry with them when they leave home? Not just a packed suitcase, but faith, purpose, and the confidence that they belong. Believe, belong, and become -- those three words guide the refreshed Latter-day Saint youth program and invite a bigger conversation too: How do we help the next generation build a faith of their own while knowing we’re still standing beside them? Deseret News faith reporter Amy Ortiz joins the conversation.
