For the second day running, the Utah Department of Health reports the state’s highest single-day jump in coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic and medical professionals warn that the worst is yet to come. As a result of the COVID surge, the Sundance Film Festival cancels all in-person screenings. And new Utah city, Erda, is allowed to incorporate — but only after a long saga involving lawsuits, delays and behind-the-scenes political machinations.

Every Friday at 9 a.m., tune in to Utah Public Radio for the broadcast. Join the live conversation by calling (801) 355-TALK.
