Let’s Talk New Mexico, 8/27/26: From the possible transfer of Sandia Wilderness land to the oversight of the Sandia pueblo, to a spate of ICE arrests in Santa Fe, we’ve seen some big stories this summer. On this week’s Let’s Talk New Mexico, we’ll be taking a closer look at the news with the journalists who reported the stories, and we’ll also look into some stories that may have slipped beneath the radar.

As always, we’ll be taking your comments and questions! What would you like to know more about when it comes to some of the bigger headline stories? Or, is there a story that you think needs more attention? Email us at LetsTalk@KUNM.org, leave us your thoughts using the recorder below, or call in live at 505-277-5866 during the show, Thursday morning at 9.
