This week we kick things off with a holiday double-header — Passover at the Grossman/Cramer house and an epic Easter egg hunt at the Julows new addition.

Joanna also shares what it felt like to finally be the candidate at the mic for the first time on Kurt Wright's show. Then things get a little more serious: the ongoing fight over Democratic Party neutrality in primaries, the memo, the apology to Ryan McLaren, and why Joanna is pushing for a codified resolution in May.

Then we bring you live from Barr Hill in Montpelier, where over 200 people packed in for the launch of Aly Richards' campaign for Governor of Vermont — kids, families, old teachers, ex-boyfriends' moms, the works.

We sit down with Aly for a deep dive into why she's running. She brings her decade leading Let's Grow Kids — and the most significant child care law in the country — to a conversation about Vermont's structural challenges: a housing crisis that underlies almost every other problem, rural hospitals staring down bankruptcy, and an economy that needs a strategic offense, not just a goalie. She talks about growing up on a dirt road in Newbury, working the Obama campaign, and why Vermont's smallness — its ability to literally pull each other out of the mud — is still its greatest strength.

Plus, Statehouse Style, Campaign Design Edition — the story behind the red clover campaign logo and her Creemee order with a tactical approach to sprinkles.
