EDITOR’S NOTE NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH? Like most people of her generation, my grandmother had a lot of perspectives born out of the Great Depression. I remember her telling me once about Christmas in the early-’30s, when she and her sisters were overjoyed to get an orange and a pencil in their stockings. She also had more than a few stories about the grocery store her parents ran—and at which she worked—through much of her childhood in rural northern Idaho. That Americans like my grandma, who entered adulthood in the 1940s and raised families through the middle of the 20th century, would be sensitive to ideas of deprivation doesn’t come as a surprise. Nor is it hard to grasp why they would look to government to ensure their fellow citizens—especially the young and the old—were provided with at least a minimum level of support. Out of those Depression era beliefs, the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act was enacted by President Harry S. Truman in 1945 for two reasons: as a way to support farmers and provide school kids with food during the school day. Almost 30 years later, in 1974, Meals on Wheels America was established to give senior citizens access to home-delivered food. Supported by the Older Americans Act, passed by Congress in 1965, Meals on Wheels has since become a lifeline for millions of people who suffer from limited mobility or poverty. School lunches and Meals on Wheels have been targeted by President Donald Trump, whose budget proposals include axing government support for both programs. In Idaho, numerous experts say that would be a disaster. Among the shocking statistics reported by Boise Weekly News Editor George Prentice in this week’s paper, as many as 83,110 school age kids in Idaho are considered “food insecure,” making the meals provided at school their most dependable. About half of all Idaho public school students quality for free or reduced-price school lunches and, in some rural districts, that number can be higher than 90 percent. Meals on Wheels, meanwhile, delivers hot meals each day to 800 seniors in Ada County alone. Read Prentice’s report on Page 6. —Zach Hagadone

‘CONTINUOUS PRAYER RECITAL’ A man was walking along the greenbelt when he suddenly collapsed after clutching his chest in pain. A jogger saw what happened and knelt by the man who was now unconscious. After noting that the man was not breathing and had no pulse, the jogger called out to a group of people nearby, “Help, I think he’s had a heart attack. Do you know CPR”? “Yes, we do,” replied one of the group and they quickly came to help. They circled the man and held hands as they said in unison, “Oh Father, heal this man. In your name we pray.” They calmly repeated this over and over. “Wait,” the jogger yelled, “This man needs CPR! I thought you said you knew how to do it!” “Oh we do,” said the member of a cult that has a cemetery full of dead children from a lack of medical care, “We are preforming CPR, ‘Continuous Prayer Recital.’” Of course the man died, but the good news is that he’s in a better place and the cult let him be buried in their beautiful cemetery. —Calvin Vincent Weaver, Boise

GUNS AND BUTTER Are Americans so satisfied with our present quality

of life that we can embrace the 2017 military budget of $733.5 billion proposed by the current administration? To harken back to an early time, should we have “more guns or butter”? To help answer that question, it is instructive to consider the following information addressing quality of life. (1) According to a 2015 study of safety, health care, consumer price indices and currency purchasing power conducted by the United Nations Development Program, the United States ranked seventh out of 188 nations behind Austria, Germany, Denmark, New Zealand, Spain and Finland. (2) According to the 2011 information compiled by the Organization for Economic Development, which conducts comparative studies in housing, income, education, civic involvement, health, life satisfaction and work-pleasure balance in 38 nations, the United States ranked ninth behind Norway, Australia, Denmark, Switzerland, Canada, Sweden, New Zealand and Finland. (3) The results of a parallel study completed by WorldPress. com in 2011 were used to create a Quality of Life Index through the use of comparative data from the same 188 nations in the categories of health, education, wealth, degree of democracy, peace and environment. The United States emerged as 31st on the cumulative index with the following rank in each specific category: health (34th) education (22nd), wealth (20th), democracy (15th), peace (81st),and the environment (52nd). Are the majority of the people in the U.S. deriving sufficient life satisfaction with affordable educational opportunities, economic se-

curity and affordable health care to justify giving the military $733.5 billion? This merits serious thought, for we are not engaged in a war on the scale of WW II, Korea, Vietnam or even the Cold War. Our enemy? Groups of unaffiliated terrorists that have no regular army, navy, air force or generous military budget. The U.S. military supremacy is universally unchallenged as it receives the equivalent of 40 percent of the total money spent on military preparedness by all counties in the world. From another perspective, the U.S. military budget is larger than the next seven military powers (including Russia and China) combined. History confirms that to be a “great nation” militarily—but not in terms of the quality of life afforded its citizens—is unsustainable. To “Make America Great Again” will require fewer guns and more butter. —Gordon Brown, Driggs

FAKE TIMES On March 17, 2017 fake Electoral College President Trump and fake German Chancellor Angela Merkel held a fake joint press conference in the fake White House talking to fake reporters before fake television cameras disseminating fake information to a fake nation. Fake President Trump then took fake questions from fake reporters and gave fake answers emphasizing fake important points with fake exaggerated hand gestures. Fake President Trump and fake Chancellor Merkel then walked away from fake podium and off fake stage through fake door. Fake news commentators gave fake analysis and solicited fake opinions from fake talking heads, followed by fake cat food commercials. SAD! —Tom Yount, Boise

Keynote speaker Asmaa Albukaie brought her family to Boise from Syria as refugees.

BOISE HIGH SCHOOL’S STUDENT SYMPOSIUM GOES BIG IN ITS SECOND YEAR Fiona Sosnowski wants to be a biomedical researcher. Isabel Swafford wants to be an astronaut. Neither of them, they said, match up to the image most people have of scientists. “I rarely saw women doing what I wanted to do,” Sosnowski said of workplaces and media depictions. In a presentation to fellow students March 22 as part of the second annual Boise High School Student Symposium, Sosnowski and Swafford made the case that veiled sexism has been a wall separating women from the careers of their choice. Their presentation, “Breaking Up the Boys’ Club: Women in STEM,” was part of a student-led, district-sanctioned takeover of the school, comprised of almost 100 speeches, presentations and workshops—all of which were conducted by students around the theme “Be the Change.” The students a lot of politically and socially sensitive material. Celia Hausske was one organizer of “LGBTQ+ Rights: Protect Yourself and Loved Ones,” a workshop about intersectionality, privilege and “coming out” as queer to parents. Activist, former Idaho lawmaker and Boise Weekly columnist Nicole LeFavour spoke about the impact of LGBT issues on her own family and some of the dangers facing queer Idahoans. Hausske, a member of Boise High’s Gay-Straight Alliance, wanted the event to be accommodating to students who might have questions, rather than be shocking in any way. “We don’t want people who aren’t in the queer community to have their heads exploded,” she said. Organizers of the workshop said they intended to demystify the queer community for outsiders and allies, and offer support for its members by revealing the experiences of LGBT people through storytelling. During her presentation, LeFavour 7 said, “The price people have paid for coming out has been really steep,” and 6 | MARCH 29 – APRIL 4, 2017 | BOISEweekly

The looming food fight over federal funding to feed children, seniors GEORGE PRENTICE In the wake of President Donald Trump’s failed effort to upend the Affordable Care Act, the president has said he’s ready to “move on.” Meanwhile, critics say the tussle over Trump’s plan to upend Obamacare is nothing compared to the looming food fight over programs that feed tens of millions of American children and seniors. “Honestly, I couldn’t believe what we were hearing from the White House,” said Idaho Hunger Relief Task Force founding Director Kathy Gardner. She was referring to Trump budget director Mick Mulvaney’s comments March 16 that there was “no demonstrable evidence” linking school meal programs to student performance. Mulvaney went on to say the administration “can’t defend anymore” using federal funds to help pay for Meals on Wheels programs. “We can’t spend money on programs just because they sound good,” he said.“We’re not going to spend [money] on programs that cannot show that they actually deliver the promises that we’ve made to people.” Gardner begs to differ. “I guess these are more of their alternative facts. There is research that proves success, even though some of our leaders say there isn’t,” she said. According to a 2014 report, “Nutrition and Students Academic Performance,” from Minnesota-based Wilder Research, nutrition is linked to “students’ thinking skills, behavior and health, all factors that impact academic performance.” In a 2015 study, researchers from Yale, Berkeley and the University of Connecticut concluded new, healthier school meals were receiving high marks from students who were eating more fruit and vegetables and throwing away less food. “Better behavior, better test scores, better social interactions, you name it,” said Gardner. It is also a fact many Idaho children go hungry. A 2016 study from the nonprofit Feeding America revealed 83,110 Idaho children—one in every five Gem State kids—were considered

“food insecure.” The Idaho Foodbank says those children “live at risk of hunger.” That’s why about half of all of Idaho’s public school students qualify for free or reduced-price school lunches. In the Nampa School District, 68 percent of the students qualified for school meal assistance. In the Wilder School District the rate skyrockets to 94 percent. “Nearly 60 percent of our students qualify for free or reduced-price lunches or breakfasts. That number usually surprises people in Boise,” said Peggy Bodnar, food and nutrition services supervisor for the Boise Independent School District. “And we have something called Community Eligibility Provision in 22 of our schools.” CEP is a federal provision that cuts through the paperwork and stigma of having to apply for a free or reduced-price meals. Because of the high number of families eligible for food stamps in a particular neighborhood, nearby schools make lunches and breakfasts eligible to all students in the neighborhood free of charge. As Bodnar, a 12-year veteran of school nutrition, pored over the statistics, an end-of-period buzzer alerted the 1,100-plus students at Timberline High School that it was time for lunch. “I promise you that you wouldn’t be able to tell which of these students was eligible for a free lunch today,” said Bodnar. “Hunger cuts across so many demographics, and there are probably more hungry children than we know, as families fall through the cracks due to the economy, foreclosures, job changes.” Bodnar said she had no desire to weigh in on the political drama around the fate of federally subsidized meals for students but was quick to add the Boise School District didn’t think twice about supporting the 22 CEPs. It turns out that

the federal government only partially pays for school lunches at a CEP school, leaving it to the district to cover the rest. “It’s amazing that the Boise district is so supportive, demonstrated by the fact that 22 of our 47 schools are CEP eligible. That’s a district decision,” Bodnar said. “And there is not one principal in our district who feels we should turn away a child that doesn’t have enough money to eat. Not one.” Boise school cafeterias dish out nearly 23,000 meals each school day—approximately 4 million meals per year. “This is not your grandfather’s cafeteria food,” said Bodnar, pointing to a series of cafeteria windows where students can get multiple menu items for lunch, all nutritionally balanced. “And our Farm to Table program is a huge hit,” she said, which means tater tots are made from Idaho potatoes, trout is from Clear Springs Food in Buhl, hamburger buns are baked at Franz Bakery in Nampa, milk is from Boise’s Meadow Gold Dairy and even sugar has been processed in Idaho. “Boise schools spend over $1 million a year on local food products,” said Bodnar, whose districtwide nutrition budget is $10 million. “These local food contracts are a very big deal for us. It’s also a big deal that we have to operate on a balanced budget. The program is self funded. There are no educational funds to support food and nutrition service only from the sale of our meals from students who can pay and some federal reimbursement for those who can’t pay.” At the Meridian headquarters of Metro Meals on Wheels, director Grant Jones balances an annual budget of nearly $2 7 million to provide a hot meal every weekday to more than 800 Ada County seniors.

NEWS SAYING YEA TO NAY

Idaho version of ‘Freedom Caucus’ surfaces at Statehouse GEORGE PRENTICE Reporting on the so-called “Freedom Caucus” in the U.S. Congress, BBC journalist Katie Shepherd asked on March 28, “Do these 29 white men run America?” Shepherd was referring to the group of lawmakers who have been credited with (or blamed for) derailing President Donald Trump’s effort to repeal and replace Obamacare. “The Freedom Caucus can make or break a bill,” she said. In an appearance March 29 on MSNBC’s Morning Joe program—which turned testy—fourterm Rep. Raul Labrador (R-Idaho), a founding member of the Freedom Caucus, doubled down on his opposition to the White House plan, dubbed “Trumpcare.” “Look, the White House gave us a ‘take it or leave it’ message,” Labrador said. “Because I had a binary choice, I chose to leave it.” The conversation got heated after Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski pressed Labrador on another health care matter: The debate over paid family leave. “I owned a business for 10 years. I paid for the insurance of the people that worked for me,” said Labrador. “I gave them leave whenever they needed leave, and I helped them out.”

Boise High School students volunteered to record refugees’ stories during the symposium.

(L-R) Reps. Bryan Zollinger (R-Idaho Falls), Raul Labrador (R-Idaho) and Mike Kingsley (R-Lewiston).

When Brzezinski challenged that Labrador was talking about vacation or sick time, not paid leave, Labrador bristled. “Look, that’s not what I was told we would be talking about,” Labrador said. “They had vacation, they had sick days and a bunch of things. Those things cost me money, and I did it willingly. I don’t think the government should be forcing that. I know that you want the government to force more spending, but I don’t.” Meanwhile, the Idaho Statehouse can expect more of the same arguments in the wake of a March 27 announcement from two freshmen legislators that they’ll form an Idaho House Freedom Caucus. Reps. Mike Kingsley (R-Lewiston) and Bryan Zollinger (R-Idaho Falls) appointed themselves co-chairmen of the group and said they had iden-

“We’re delivering or serving more than 100 meals more today than we were this time last year,” said Jones. “Our numbers are going 6 up. No. 1, seniors are living longer. No. 2, more and more retirees are moving to our area.” To keep the meals coming, the wheels moving and the doors open, Metro Meals on Wheels gets about 1/3 of its funding from seniors who can pay something for the meal to be delivered, another 1/3 from fundraising and a final 1/3 from the federally funded Older Americans Act Nutrition Program, a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. While the Trump White House hasn’t mentioned any proposed cuts to OAA, Jones concedes “everything appears to be on the table in Washington.” “What we’re telling our seniors is what we’re telling our colleagues: This is all speculation. Nothing is for sure,” said Jones. “We don’t want to unnecessarily alarm our customers. Our seniors are already vulnerable in so many ways, and the last thing on Earth that we want is for them to worry, ‘Oh my goodness. Will I get another meal?’” As for the benefits of Meals on Wheels, Jones said the list was long. “Nearly all of our clients can remain independent in their own homes. Compare that to assisted living and the savings are huge,” he said. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

has included death, estrangement from family, the destruction of careers and more. In 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage—a leap forward—but in 2016, the LGBT community suffered a string of tragedies, including a shooting at an Orlando, Fla., gay nightclub that left 49 dead and 53 wounded. In the Treasure Valley, openly gay Boise State University employee and local actor Steven Nelson was lured to the shores of Lake Lowell and beaten (he later died from his injuries). One of his assailants, Kelly Schneider, was convicted on a federal hate crime charge earlier this year. Telling stories, said student organizer Sadie Heartman, is one way of warming people to the topic, but that can get complicated. “There are so many layers [to coming out] and it’s all personal,” she said. Across the hall from the LGBT workshop, Ryan Hill and Hayden Cooper occupied an English classroom to link private prisons to the war on drugs, civil rights violations and criminal recidivism. Hill and Cooper briefly discussed the Corrections Corporation of America scandal at the Idaho Correctional Institution that resulted in CCA handing the keys to the state’s largest prison back to the state of Idaho. Currently, only private prison in the Gem State remains. Hill said he first learned about the topic from an episode of Adam Ruins Everything, but always thought the government operated the criminal justice and corrections systems. He was aghast to discover the scale of privatized prisons, the relationships between the corporations that run them and how justice is served, and the sheer number of incarcerated Americans. As he dug deeper, Hill became convinced profit motive has made private corporations unfit to operate prisons. “[Private prisons] don’t do anything to help prisoners,” he said. “[Prisoners] just get stuck in a rut.” 6

tified 10 other House members as potential Idaho Freedom Caucus members—24 current House members, including Speaker Scott Bedke (ROakley), were interested enough in the concept, they packed a March 27 meeting to hear more. Compared to the “29 white men” in D.C., Zollinger said he looked forward to a “kinder, gentler” Idaho version. “We aren’t going to throw grenades,” he said. In the meantime, Zollinger was anxious to promote a Friday, March 31 GOP fundraiser in eastern Idaho. The event at the Idaho Falls headquarters of the Melaleuca Corporation promises a “shotgun giveaway” and will feature an appearance from Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, who has been agitating for the ouster of U.S. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan based on his support of Trumpcare.

According to Meals on Wheels, more than 75,000 Idahoans are considered “isolated, living alone,” more than 37,000 of them “threatened by hunger,” up from 29,000 only a year ago. Of those Idahoans who receive a hot meal delivered to their home each weekday, 90 percent said it “made them feel more safe and secure.” As for savings, mealsonwheelsamerica. org estimates the program can provide meals to a senior for a full year for roughly the same cost as one day in a hospital. Those are just some of the reasons, Jones said, that around 800 people showed up for the March for Meals event March 25 in Kleiner Memorial Park to bring much-needed attention to senior hunger. Food Services of America ended up donating $4,000 to the cause —$5 for each marcher. Still another march to highlight food insecurity will get a fair amount of attention in the nation’s capital. Bodnar knows because she’ll be there. “I’m the president-elect of the Idaho School Nutrition Association, so I’ll be traveling to D.C. to take part in our national association’s legislative action conference,” she said. “We’ll be marching to Capitol Hill on April 4.” Bodnar said nutritionists from all across the U.S. will fan out across the Capitol to get some face-time with members of the U.S. House and Senate. “It’s a very different time in Washington, D.C. It’s time to stand up and talk about this,” she said.

ALTON BROWN LIVE: EAT YOUR SCIENCE

STAND-UP: KEVIN FARLEY AND MARC PRICE

FIRST IDAHO ROBOTICS COMPETITION REGIONAL

In the kingdom of foodies, think of Alton Brown as the court jester: the affable, comical charmer who makes everything go down, with or without a spoonful of sugar. He makes food preparation so entertaining that he has regularly filled theaters and arenas on national tours. His latest, dubbed the Eat Your Science tour, combines food, drink, comedy, puppets and what Brown promises to be “very large, very unusual and potentially dangerous food demonstrations”—Boise audience members in the first few rows are cautioned to wear something that can be dry cleaned. The family-friendly show also invites some lucky audience members to assist in the kitchen. 8 p.m., $35-$105. Morrison Center, 1910 University Drive, 208426-1609, morrisoncenter.com.

Marc Price found fame as Skippy Handelman on ’80s sitcom Family Ties, and Kevin Farley’s name invokes memories of his late great brother Chris. Both have moved beyond their beginnings: Price continued as a comic and Farley made his mark in movies and TV, including voicing a character on Bill Burr’s animated comedy F is for Family (Netflix). He also loves doing stand-up and, when Price got in touch about doing shows in Boise and Colorado, Farley was game. He’s never met Price or been to Boise, so it will be a run of firsts. “I’ve always wanted to be in showbiz,” said Farley. “I’m also a whore for work,” he added, laughing. Note: March 30 is a River Discovery Laugh Out Cancer benefit show, and April 2 is Price solo, which he described as, “The full Skippy. It’s like the full Monty but with clothes.” Thurs., 8 p.m.; Fri.-Sat., 8 p.m., 10 p.m.; Sun., 8 p.m.; $15-$22. Liquid, 405 S. Eighth St., 208-941-2459, liquidboise.com.

When the word “robot” was coined in 1920, it meant “forced worker,” translated from the Czech word robota or robotnik. Today, we don’t think of robots as slaves—rather, they’re helpers, partners and pop culture characters. Provided they don’t go all Terminator on us, some even think of them as eventual saviors. Robots will fill Taco Bell Arena for the FIRST Idaho Regional Robotics Competition. Teams from 35 high schools will run their ’bots through a series of challenges, hoping to advance to the nationals April 19-22 in Houston and April 26-29 in St. Louis. Competitors worked for six weeks to design, build, program and test their robots, which this year are based on a steampunk theme. Watch them in action starting at 9 a.m. both days with the finals from 1:30-4:30 p.m. on Saturday. 8 a.m., FREE. Taco Bell Arena, 1401 Bronco Lane, 208-4261900, idahofrcregional.org.

Honey-voiced Tara Velarde describes herself as an “indie folk songstress,” a designation she chose with a great deal of thought. “I identify strongly with songwriters and indie folk bands,” said Velarde, whose 2016 debut LP Get Out and Walk (self-released) is a charming, emotive stroll through her sweet indie sound. Portland-based Velarde wanted to be a poet as a kid. She gravitated to music with classical piano training and a music degree from Pacific University, and found combining the two passions the perfect outlet. “Lyrics are so important,” Velarde said. “The story is what connects people to a song.” Whereas she can flush out a melody on piano easily, writing on guitar may allow an unexpected—but welcomed—note or chord to slip in.

CLOWNVIS PRESLEY, APRIL 2, NEUROLUX When Clownvis Presley appeared on America’s Got Talent in 2010, judge Piers Morgan savaged him. “It is without any doubt, the worst act I’ve probably ever seen,” he said. Things went downhill from there, with Presley disrespecting Ozzie Osbourne to Sharon’s face and Nick Cannon considering “whipping some ass.” Even mild mannered Howie Mandel had some choice words for the Elvis impersonator/clown: “F-ck off,” he said. As if that wasn’t reason enough to want to bask in the bizarre concept, check out songs like “Jesus Christ Eatin’ on a Chicken Wing,” “The Cursive Song” (feat. Neil Hamburger) and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme set to “In the Ghetto.” We have no idea what a Clownvis Presley show would be like live, but Boiseans will be lucky enough to find out when he brings his brand of weirdness to the Neurolux.

GEORGE PRENTICE Beauty and the Beast may not be the best Disney film ever made, but the fantastical box office success of the new, live action re-telling of the 1991 animated classic confirms the happy ending: Disney still rules the castle. Only in its second weekend, Beauty and the Beast’s global box office receipts soared past the $500 million mark and some analysts guess it might enter the uber-exclusive $1 billion club, usually reserved for avatars or stories from a galaxy far, far away. Beauty and the Beast (left) has already raked in more than $500 million at the box office, putting it on pace to match the success of The Jungle Book (right), which made $967 million in 2016. Disney’s strategy of mining its animated library to recraft live action remakes has rekindled Elton John, Randy Newman and Phil Collins all to be the so-called “Disney Renaissance.” Beauty the studio’s box office magic. For example, last won Oscars for writing scores for Disney.

SCREEN EXTRA LUNAFEST: FILMS BY, ABOUT AND FOR WOMEN

STARTS FRIDAY, MAR. 31ST 16 | MARCH 29 – APRIL 4, 2017 | BOISEweekly

In 2016, actress Robin Wright asked for a pay raise. The co-star of the Netflix series House of Cards wanted her compensation to be equal to that of cast member Kevin Spacey. The show’s producers ultimately acquiesced. Wright’s win was a small victory in an industry still dominated by

men, who predominantly produce and direct films and are consistently paid the most to star in Hollywood fare. Lunafest, which features films by, about and for women, aims to push back against that inequity. The 2017 assortment of nine short films plays the field, encompassing genres like drama, documentary and animation. The annual festival tells compel-

ling stories and sketches beautiful characters, like a 17-year-old girl whose life in a refugee camp reinvigorates her sense of hope in Khaldiya Jibawi’s documentary, Another Kind of Girl. In Frederike Migom’s belgian short Nkosi Coiffure, a woman flees a fight with her boyfriend, finding refuge in a Brussels hair salon. Presented by Soroptimist

International of Boise, Lunafest will screen at The Flicks Saturday, April 1, beginning at 12:30 p.m. The 90-minute festival will be followed by a discussion with hosted wine and snacks. Tickets are $20, with 85 percent of the proceeds going to local service projects and the remainder benefiting the Breast Cancer Fund. —Harrison Berry BOISE WEEKLY.COM


BEERGUZZLER CELEBRATE IDAHO April is Idaho Craft Beer Month, so, with that in mind, it seems appropriate to give a nod to a few Gem State breweries—and what could be more in keeping with the Northwest beer scene than India pale ale? Here are three, all weighing in at 6.5 percent alcohol by volume: two from Boise, one from the Panhandle. LAUGHING DOG INDIA PALE ALE, $1.60-$1.90 Hailing from Ponderay, the head on this gold-tinged, hazy orange entry is on the thin side, but leaves good lacing. Resiny hops dominate the nose with touches of citrus and caramel. Subdued for a Northwest IPA, but still with a lively hop profile that’s balanced by smooth malt and backed by stone fruit. A nice bitter edge colors the velvety finish. PAYETTE BREWING RECOIL IPA, $1.70-$2 A bit more of a head tops the Recoil, but the color is the same gold and hazy orange as the Laughing Dog. The aromas lean toward the floral with a surprising hit of spice and subtle, fruity hops. Light on the hops on the palate as well, more in the style of an English IPA, offering just enough to add a bit of bitterness to the creamy malt flavors. Still, eminently quaffable. SOCKEYE DAGGER FALLS IPA, $1.60-$1.90 An off-white, two finger froth with good retention covers this crystal clear, dark amber pour. The nose is filled with big, pine laced hops and citrus. Definitely the hoppiest ale of the trio, with a solid but not overwhelming bitterness throughout. Sweet malt, citrus and graham cracker flavors round things out. Sockeye was the first modern-day Idaho brewery to can its beers. —David Kirkpatrick BOISE WEEKLY.COM

GEORGE PRENTICE

Louie Anderson is everything you might imagine him to be: sweet, attentive, sensitive and larger than life. Since 1984, when he burst onto the comedy scene with a now-historic appearance on The Tonight Show, Anderson created the Emmy Award-winning Saturday morning cartoon show Life With Louie, had a successful run as the host of Family Feud and performed stand-up on stages around the world. His latest achievement is winning a Primetime Emmy for his role as Christine Baskets in the FX hit comedy Baskets. Prior to his Friday, March 31 show at the Egyptian Theatre in Boise, Anderson talked with Boise Weekly about his 30-plus years in show business and “third act” as one of the nation’s best comics.

Tell me about your first appearance with Johnny in November 1984. For my generation, being on The Tonight Show was the Super Bowl ring. You were one of the very few comics who saw Johnny wave you over to the desk. It’s like an anointment, meeting with the pope of show business. In the world of late night television, you’ve appeared with them all. Can I assume Johnny was the gold standard? I love them all for different reasons. David Letterman, like Johnny, loved comedians. Jay Leno was the hardest working stand-up in the business. Conan O’Brien was the bridge between my generation of comics and the new comedians. Now there are the Jimmys and James. Fallon, Kimmel and Corden. I really enjoy appearing with all of them.

Growing up in Minnesota, did you have comedy idols? Richard Pryor, Jonathan Winters and, of course, Johnny Carson.

Is writing comedy as hard as I imagine? My sense is that my writing jokes is in the same fashion as the way you mine your interviewees to make them sound more interesting. Do you keep your ideas in notebooks? I keep them on my iPhone. Do you want to

hear some of the things I’m thinking about? Are you kidding? Of course. Let’s see. I’m sick of going to hotels, spending half of my paycheck and the bed is stacked a milehigh with pillows. I need a flat pillow. My head is so big, it has to be flat, otherwise I’m Quasimodo. I’ve also been thinking about that new TV show Feud. Try to imagine me as both Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. Speaking of appearing in drag, let’s talk about you playing Christine Baskets. Louis C.K. [co-creator] and Zach Galifianakis [star, co-creator] called me and said they wanted me to play Zach’s mother on Baskets. I said yes immediately. I’ve been playing my mom for years. In your performance, where does your mom end and Christine begin? There’s a piece of my mom in there, especially the humanity. She was much nicer than Christine. I assume Baskets will be renewed for a third season. I need you to call FX right now and tell them that. Craig Ferguson told me the other day, “What a wonderful third act you’re having.” Do you see it that way? I turned 64 on March 24. I’d love this to be my second act, but I’ve already had my second act. Do you have a goal for what audiences might take away from your performances? Beautiful, complicated laughter. I’ve had the great fortune of seeing you live three times, all amazing, but I always thought of your act as comedy with sincerity. But you strive for complexity? But I don’t want to be preachy or too serious. More than anything, I want people to leave their daily grind so they can ride down a snowy hill on a piece of cardboard. We couldn’t afford toboggans when I was a kid. We used to steal food trays from the cafeteria for our sleds. What a great idea. I would love that. Let’s do that when I get to Idaho.

PAGE BREAK MOVIES WITH MIKEY

$GYLFH IRU WKRVH RQ WKH YHUJH

Like riding a bike after years of driving a car, there’s a moment in every critic’s life when he or she grabs the craft firmly by the handlebars. Desire and appreciation become addictive as the critic moves toward greater and more subtle insights. Movies with Mikey, a YouTube channel from the Chainsawsuit Original group, may have viewers watching movies with a more critical eye, while also appreciating them on a deeper level. The passion host Mikey Neumann has for the films he critiques is obvious, as he delights in asides and FREE , youtube.com/user/chainsawsuitoriginal observations on favorites like Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel and J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Neumann introduces new avenues of thought regarding key filmmakers and their contributions to cinema, he is generally quirky and funny, and he never gets lost in his critical virtuosity—he always ties his observations to the emotional and moral cores of the movies he reviews. Movies with Mikey is entertaining but, moreso, it can turn a casual viewer into an informed and appreciative one. —Harrison Berry

‘WOMAN TO WOMAN’

DEAR MINERVA, For this week’s Day Without a Woman, I’ve seen mixed responses from elation for the amount of support to critiques that it excludes women of color, gender queer individuals and those not assigned female at birth. What takeaways might you have for how to be fully inclusive while fighting for gender equity? Is there a better way? —Fighting for Feminism

DEAR FIGHTING FOR FEMINISM, I, too, have seen the mixed responses ranging from very narrow views to petty whining and complaints about the existence of Caitlyn Jenner. Here’s the deal: Women in our lives play an incredibly important role. Women teach us about inner strength, resilience and fortitude. Like any day of celebration and reflection, it only excludes those who refuse to participate. Feminism is about choices. If someone considers themselves a feminist, they must realize the experience of being a woman is different for all women. Part of it requires us to stand up and claim it for ourselves, individually. There are as many ways to be a woman as there are women, and we cannot rely on others to tell our stories for us. It is easier to complain than to take ownership of our own legacy and role in the narrative. No one was asking me to be who I am, I had to do it myself and was lucky to have supporters and encouragement. No one was sending me engraved invitations to the party. Show your face, and claim your place! SUBMIT questions to Minerva’s Breakdown at bit.ly/MinervasBreakdown or mail them to Boise Weekly, 523 Broad St., Boise, ID 83702.

TED RALL

JEN SORENSEN

HOBO JARGON

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): The dragon that stole your treasure will return it. Tulips and snapdragons will blossom in a field you thought was a wasteland. Gargoyles from the abyss will crawl into view, then meekly lick your hand and reveal secrets you can use. The dour troll that guards the bridge to the Next Big Thing will let you pass even though you don’t have the password. APRIL FOOL! Everything I just described is only metaphorically true, not literally. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): According to legend, Buddha had to face daunting tests to achieve enlightenment. A diabolical adversary tempted him with sensual excesses and assailed him with vortexes of blistering mud, flaming ice, and howling rocks. Happily, Buddha glided into a state of wise calm and triumphed over the mayhem. He converted his nemesis’s vortexes into bouquets of flowers and celestial ointments. What does this have to do with you? In accordance with current astrological omens, I hope you will emulate Buddha as you deal with your own initiatory tests. APRIL FOOL! I wasn’t completely honest. It’s true you’ll face initiatory tests that could prod you to a higher level of wisdom. But they’ll most likely come from allies and inner prompts rather than a diabolical adversary.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Since I expect you’ll soon be tempted to indulge in too much debauched fun and riotous release, I’ll offer you a good hangover remedy. Throw these ingredients into a blender, then drink up: a thousandyear-old quail egg from China, seaweed from Antarctica, milk from an Iraqi donkey, lemon juice imported from Kazakhstan, and a dab of Argentinian toothpaste on which the moon has shone for an hour. APRIL FOOL! I deceived you. You won’t have to get drunk or stoned to enjoy extreme pleasure and cathartic abandon. It will come to you quite naturally—especially if you expand your mind through travel, big ideas or healthy experiments. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Hire a promoter to create gold plaques listing your accomplishments and hang them in public places. Or pay someone to make 1,000 bobble-head dolls in your likeness, each wearing a royal crown, and give them away. Or enlist a pilot to fly a plane over a sporting event while trailing a banner that reads, “[Your name] is a gorgeous genius worthy of worshipful reverence.” APRIL FOOL! What I advised was a distorted interpretation of cosmic omens. The best way to celebrate your surging power is not by reveling in prideful displays but by making a bold move that will render a dream 10 percent more possible to accomplish.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Endangered species: black rhino, Bornean orangutan, hawksbill turtle, South China tiger, Sumatran elephant and the Leo messiah complex. You may not be able to do much to preserve the first five on that list, but PLEASE get to work on saving the last. It’s time for a massive eruption of your megalomania. APRIL FOOL! I was exaggerating for effect. There’s no need to go overboard in reclaiming your messiah complex. But please do take strong action to stoke your self-respect, self esteem and confidence. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Race through your yoga routine so you have more time to surf the Internet. Inhale doughnuts and vodka in the car as you race to the health food store. Get into a screaming fight with a loved one about how you desperately need more peace and tenderness. APRIL FOOL! A little bit of self-contradiction would be cute, but not THAT much. And yet I do worry that you are close to expressing THAT much. The problem may be that you haven’t been giving your inner rebel any high-quality mischief to attend to. As a result, it’s bogged down in trivial insurrections. So please give your inner rebel more important work to do. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Research shows that a typical working couple devotes an average

of four minutes per day in meaningful conversations. I suggest you boost that output by at least 10 percent. Try to engage your best companion in four minutes and 24 seconds of intimate talk per day. APRIL FOOL! I lied. A 10 percent increase isn’t nearly enough. Given the current astrological indicators, you must seek out longer and deeper exchanges with the people you love. Can you manage 20 minutes per day? SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In a way, it’s too bad you’re about to lose your mind. The chaos that ensues will be a big chore to clean up. But in another sense, losing your mind may be a lucky development. The process of reassembling it will be entertaining and informative. And as a result, your problems will become more fascinating than usual, and your sins will be especially original. APRIL FOOL! I lied, sort of. You won’t really lose your mind. But this much is true: Your problems will be more fascinating than usual, and your sins will be especially original. That’s a good thing! It may even help you recover a rogue part of your mind that you lost a while back. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You say that some of the healthiest foods don’t taste good? And that some of your pleasurable diversions seem to bother people you care about? You say it’s too much

hassle to arrange for a certain adventure that you know would be exciting and meaningful? Here’s what I have to say about all that: Stop whining. APRIL FOOL! I lied. The truth is, there will soon be far fewer reasons for you to whine. The discrepancies between what you have to do and what you want to do will at least partially dissolve. So will the gaps between what’s good for you and what feels good, and between what pleases others and what pleases you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You should begin work on a book with one of the following titles, and you should finish writing it no later than April 28: “The Totally Intense Four Weeks of My Life When I Came All the Way Home”; “The Wildly Productive Four Weeks of My Life when I Discovered the Ultimate Secrets of Domestic Bliss”; “The Crazily Meaningful Four Weeks When I Permanently Anchored Myself in the Nourishing Depths.” APRIL FOOL! I lied. There’s no need to actually write a book like that. I do hope you seek out and generate experiences that would enable you to write books with those titles. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If you were a passenger on a plane full of your favorite celebrities, and the pilot had to make an emergency landing on a remote snowbound mountain, and you had to eat one of the celebrities

in order to stay alive until rescuers found you, which celebrity would you want to eat first? APRIL FOOL! That was a really stupid and pointless question. I can’t believe I asked it. I hope you didn’t waste a nanosecond thinking about what your reply might be. Here’s the truth, Aquarius: You’re in a phase of your astrological cycle when the single most important thing you can do is ask and answer really good questions. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You now have an elevated chance of finding a crumpled one-dollar bill on a sidewalk. There’s also an increased likelihood you’ll get a coupon for a 5 percent discount from a carpet shampoo company, or win enough money in the lottery to buy a new sweatshirt. To enhance these possibilities, all you have to do is sit on your ass and wish really hard that good economic luck will come your way. APRIL FOOL! What I just said was kind of true, but also useless. Here’s more interesting news: The odds are better than average that you’ll score tips on how to improve your finances. You may also be invited to collaborate on a potentially lucrative project, or receive an offer of practical help for a bread-and-butter dilemma. To encourage these outcomes, all you have to do is develop a long-term plan for improved money management.)
