  • There's Spillage!

    The show goes off the rails within the first four minutes when Maino dumps his coffee everywhere. Todd comes to the rescue with a roll of paper towels and cleaning spray. Jim shares how his conversation with his daughter’s boyfriend’s family went. They are from and live in India, so Jim thought it would be good to wish them a nice greeting in Hindi. Maino & Todd warned him to skip the effort, but he did so anyway. The response? Laughter. We’re still not sure what Jim actually said to the family. Lisa Hale joins us to give us a rundown of what’s in store for NEWisco Weekend. This week the show focuses on agriculture in the state.

  • Thursday Meanderings

    It’s Trucker Thursday! It’s also World Nerd Day, and Jim and John ponder what makes someone a nerd. They both believe Todd was a nerd back in the day, but the truth is that Jim loves linens and musicals. So, who’s the REAL nerd? Then Bryan Milz joined us on the phone to promote a great Board Game Afternoon at the East Side Brown County Library. The neighborhood association is putting it on to bring families together on a cold winter afternoon.

  • The "Juice Of Life"

    Those were the first words out of Maino’s mouth when he walked into the studios this morning. He was carrying a bullet blender full of some concoction. Blueberries, raspberries, chia seeds, protein powder and Tang. We all taste-tested it, and it was actually pretty good. Then Maino goes off about parking meters at the Green Bay library, which opened up the door to a whole segment on parking in the city. We return from break and the guys talk about bubble baths, cutting toenails, and ordering flowers. Then learning, but not really learning, Latin in school comes up in the conversation. More on parking meters and we wrap up the hour discussing if Lutheran church services were shorter than those in Catholic churches.
