About this episode
Election Day is over, and all eyes are now on the political power players who will shape our lives. Today, we’re looking at local “ nepo babies ” — shorthand for the children of famous or well-connected people who have benefited from nepotism — whose family business is politics. Host Ali Vallarta and executive producer Emily Means explore the family trees of four Salt Lake-area politicians and the parents or spouses who helped pave their way.
