- When someone experiences difficulties getting pregnant, one option they may turn to is surrogacy. There has been a recent surge in the number of surrogate mothers in Idaho, which is the focus of an upcoming PBS documentary. Idaho Matters speaks to a woman who participated in a surrogacy program in Boise, along with the filmmaker who explored this topic.
- Traumatic experiences for children can lead to major health problems and have been linked to low-life potential and early death, among other issues.

We learn more about the project, and how to improve support for young people who go through traumatic experiences.
- With Halloween around the corner, many people will get out their carving knives to create a spooky pumpkin for their front porch. But while most people carve pumpkins, one Idaho man carves gourds. We'll meet him during Idaho Matters, where he'll carve a "thunder gourd" live during the show.
