It's a week of big speeches as the nation prepares for the president's State of the Union address on Tuesday. Of course, there's never a shortage of speeches on Talk Back, here's a peek at who'll be speaking over our airwaves this week. As usual, we will kick off the week by listening to our favorite speaker: you! It's open phones as usual, so call in and tell us what's on you're mind.

On Tuesday, we will speak with Kirsten Tynan from the Fully Informed Jury Association, who is working to make sure jurors are aware that they can vote "not guilty" even if an accused individual is actually found guilty by the law. Why? Guess you'll have to listen in...

On Wednesday, we will speak with Marijuana Policy Project Legislative Analyst Chris Lindsay, one of the main drafters of Montana's recreational marijuana initiative. It's a topic that nearly everyone has a strong opinion about, and we want to hear yours.

On Thursday, we will speak with Montana Department of Health and Human Services Suicide Prevention Coordinator Karl Rosstn about how the state dealt with this delicate issue in 2013. After that, we may speak with another Missoula County Attorney candidate.

On Friday, we will close out the week with a final round of open phones, have a great week!
