Welcome to episode 142 of the Extra Credit podcast.

Plenty to catch up on this week: the latest enrollment numbers, the high-stakes budgeting poker game that awaits the 2019 Legislature, and more.

This will likely be our final podcast of 2018. We’ll be back Friday, Jan. 4 to preview Gov.-elect Brad Little’s first State of the State address, and the start of the 2019 legislative session.
