  • Civic Media Spotlight for July 20th & 21st (Hour 2)

    To start off this hour, Up North News Radio talks about Donald Trump’s new running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, and how he likes to talk about his upbringing in Appalachia, but Pat Kreitlow explains the many ways Vance seems to have forgotten his roots or is using them as a political prop rather than looking for ways to help people break generational cycles of poverty.

    Then on Maino & the Mayor, the guys get schooled by Kaelynn Hauser who was just named NWTC's Outstanding Student for the year. We celebrate her hard work and learn more about her journey and why she chose NWTC. She's working full time with Nicolet National Bank in project management but also works at Pedal Pushers Floral Shop. She's a complete delight, and she and Maino have similar fashion sense...they both have Chuck All-Stars. Congrats Kaelynn!!

    Next up, Mike McCabe joins the John & Gordy Show to talk about "vertical thinking" and how conservatives and liberals live very similar lives, and there isn't that much that differentiates us.  McCabe also talks about Wisconsin's history of being a nation leader in progressive policy.

    Wrapping up the week, BustED Pencils is joined by guest Randi Weingarten (president of AFT, called "the most dangerous person in the world" by Mike Pompeo) to talk how public education in America is experiencing a unique "Dickens moment" of the best and worst of times. She describes the struggle between kids learning as they interact in a pluralistic environment, that hey- they actually like each other, and the real struggles with covid, teacher shortages, and attacks on public education in the following way that was really powerful to me: "it's this fight between fear and hope, it's this fight between anger and aspiration".

  • Civic Media Spotlight for July 20th & 21st (Hour 1)

    First up, Gregory Treverton from National Security Leaders For America joins Matenaer On Air during their first day covering the RNC in Milwaukee. Gregory Treverton served in national security positions four times in his career, as a Senate and NSC staffer, and as Vice Chair and, most recently, Chair of the National Intelligence Council. He has written widely on strategy, deterrence, alliance relationship and intelligence, and has taught at Harvard, Columbia RAND and, most recently, the University of Southern California. Gregory talks to Jane and Greg to further discuss the importance of America remaining in NATO, as it's not just a matter of security, but our membership is also impactful for our economic well being. Gregory explains what we could see if Donald Trump took office and what would come if we left.

    Then on Nite Lite with Pete Schwaba, Pete is joined by comedian and Host of American Ninja Warrior, Matt Iseman. Matt and Pete talk about the Twinjas, twins from Madison who have made the semifinals on American Ninja Warrior. Matt shares his time on Sports Soup, and shares how he got his start in comedy.

    After that, Chad Holmes talks to WI Secretary of State Sarah Godlewski about working in state offices that aren't funded to the level they should, about JD Vance as the GOP VP nominee, how the President's policies have served Wisconsinites and Tammy Baldwin's record in her race vs. Eric Hovde on the Chad Holmes Show.

    Last but not least, Earl Ingram is joined by state Senator Chris Larson to discuss the state of Wisconsin politics heading into the first election cycle with fair maps in the state on the Earl Ingram Show.

  • Just because it’s traditional doesn’t mean it’s right (Hour 1)

    After a looong week, thank goodness it's Friday. Matt Rothschild is guest hosting for Maggie. He opens the show up to the audience to weigh in: is it time for Biden to pass the torch? Callers weigh in on this and on the political events of this past week with the attempted assassination of Trump and the RNC in Milwaukee.

    In the second half hour, Pastor Walter Lanier joins the show to talk about what's at stake in terms of voter suppression in this election. Voter suppression is as American as apple pie- but that doesn't mean we should keep it.
