Maino and the Mayor

Jim and John get to meet the sponsor of our Veterans Salute, Nate Olson from Olson Legal Group, LLC. We learn his military story, deployment, and how he eventually got into law. He was from Fond du Lac, his wife was from Iowa, and they met at U.W. Oshkosh. After leaving the area, they both loved the area so much they came back to the area to start their lives together. This guy has great energy, and we’re so thankful he’s stepped up to help tell the story of veterans in Northeast Wisconsin.

Then the owner of Pickle & Bags, Jeff Ehrke, joins the guys to talk a bit about his business.  They’re open 24/7 for reservations. With keyless door entry, 14,000 sq ft of versatile space, four courts, and a lively bar, this place has it all!

The guys actually show up early to our Oshkosh studios!! Jim and John are doing the show from WISS and have a great line up of guests. The meanderings start with an update on the Packer fan who was yelled at with obscenities at the Eagles game on Sunday. Apparently, the Eagles fan has been banned from future games and has been fired from his job! The guys think the NFL should send her to the Super Bowl. Cannibal sandwiches and medium-rare steaks are also part of the conversation. Then our news gal Lisa Hale joined the conversation, and the show went off the rails.

Long-time news reporter and anchor in Northeast Wisconsin, Robert Kennedy sticks around to talk about his history in the industry, what he might do now that he’s retired, and some of the stories and interviews he’s shared over the years that stand out to him. A great storyteller and an even nicer guy. It was great catching up with him! Then Ben & Deanna Malcore from Bay Area Realty called in to discuss real estate in Northeast Wisconsin. They suggest not waiting if you’re considering selling your home this year. Getting it ready and on the market before it starts heating up in the next few months. They also hope the NFL Draft brings interest in moving to Northeast Wisconsin after fans visit the area.

The discussion begins with the Vikings’ loss last night on Monday Night Football. John and Todd are thrilled with the loss, while Jim is unsure.
