Deep Dive (Ep. 1) with State Sen. Christy Zito

State Senator Christy Zito (R-Mtn. Home) is Idaho Dispatch’s first guest on our new long-form podcast called “Deep Dive.”

The goal of Deep Dive is to get to know Idaho’s political figures on a more personal level. Rather than just discuss politics and what is happening at the capitol, we wanted Idahoans to learn more about the person behind the faces of Idaho politics.

Zito recently won her state senate seat after taking a two-year hiatus.

In our interview, we discuss Zito’s upbringing, her time on the farm, and what drives her values as a lawmaker.
