Kicking off the second hour today, John, Gordy and Kathryn are joined by Terry Bell to talk about the Big News Story of the day. Terry discusses a new report out in Wisconsin, showing the mental health issues facing Wisconsin's children.

Following that up, John share a clip from a recent Congressional hearing where U.S. Ron Johnson said calling something domestic terrorism is concerning because that is a partisan lens to review the shooting that took place at a Trump rally earlier this month. And then, Johnny at the Movies reviews Deadpool & Wolverine.

Then, Mike McCabe joins the show in the studio to discuss JD Vance on the Republican ticket as Vice President, the constitutional ballot questions on August 13th, and the U.S. Farm Bill. The show wraps up with a conversation with Mike on who the Democrats will select as their Vice Presidential nominee.
