Maino and the Mayor

It’s Monday again! The good news is that it’s going to be very spring-like today. Before we get too excited, we chat with Brittney Merlot to find out how long this warm weather will stick around. Also, the guys give a quick rundown of the fundraiser they helped host and judge on Saturday at Hotel Northland. It was a fundraiser for Lucky 7 Dog Rescue. The event was a ton of fun, but the best story is how Maino didn’t care much for the cookies he was eating. Interestingly enough, the cookie was really a dog treat. That’s Maino!

Two great content creators join Jim and John this hour. We start with Paul Vanden Plas with Wonderfully Wisconsin. Paul uses social media platforms to share all the wonderful things Wisconsin has to offer. From local dive bars to state parks that folks may not know, Paul takes us there and shares the places, people, and history that make this state so awesome. The local author and podcaster Stacy Ryan joins once again. Her backstory includes losing her husband just a few years ago and then having to get through Covid alone. She’s taken her story to a series of books and a podcast in the hopes of helping others through their own journey of loss.

Our good friend Mark Husen from Bellin Sports Medicine is in the house! This Friday morning, Mark brings some great Sports Medicine information but seems concerned about a bet Jim and John came up with early in the show. Maino says it’s his “summer of biking,” and he will bike 1000 miles by the 4th of July. The guys are working out some sort of bet to raise money for local charities. But we’re unsure how we will “police” Maino’s mileage. Then we’re joined by Ashley Hoffman from Hotel Northland and Mandy Monfils from Lucky 7 Dog Rescue. A great event this weekend at the Northland called Paws for Applause. A fun fundraiser for Lucky 7 Dog Rescue. Jim and John are helping to host and judge the event.

We’re joined by Beth Parker, whose grandfather was in the military during the battle of Iwo Jima. Not only did he fight in the battle, he was brave enough to take a camera with him and document the story. Beth says that not only did he document it with his camera, but he was very willing to talk about it. It allowed her to learn more about what it was like for the soldiers overseas. You forget how young these men were…fighting for our country.

We also speak with Gary Grzesk, Head Coach of St. Norbert’s Men’s Basketball. He gives us an update on the season and a preview of some of the upcoming games.
