Then, Shane had a conversation with State Auditor Rob Sand about his priorities and the ideas he’s working on as Iowa’s new state auditor, his recent town hall tour, an upcoming investigation into spread pricing with Iowa’s Medicaid program, and why he doesn’t want the federal courthouse in Des Moines to move. 

Former Congressman David Young, R-Iowa, joins Shane to discuss why he is running for Congress again in 2020 and what he hopes to accomplish if elected.
