i'm really curious what state this was in. some states are quite lax both legally and in terms of public opinion (e.g. Wisconsin) but most are pretty harsh.

The podcast didn't mention where she got here DUI in. She was just applying to a company in California.

However I am from Wisconsin and I can vouch for that. DUI's are like misdemeanors, no matter how many felonies of them you've gotten. So long as "DUI" is after it and you're not doing a driving job, nobody cares.

Repeat offenders for felony DUI generally get incarcerated.
Not often in Wisconsin. It's not uncommon to hear a news story of a person who has had their like 8th DUI.

It doesn't even phase me anymore to be honest.
