In the second hour, it's Friday so we welcome Civic Media's Political Editor and Founder of The Recombobulation Area, Dan Shafer to the show! We're talking about the gridlocked state budget impasse and try to figure out why they are at a stand still. Next and we couldn't get away from it, but Dear Leader and The Shadow President are fighting on Social Media. But it's important to keep our eyes on the prize as Wisconsin's Senior Senator has come around to the Big Bill For Billionaires. Then, for Audio Sorbet we wade into the growing concern on wake boating. And it's always the best way to close the show: This Shouldn't Be A Thing - Shrinky Dink Edition

It's Friday and the weekend, starts here. Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul had a victory for AmeriCorps, as well as the state against The Felon President. And it looks like the film industry is one step closer to getting help from the state if creators want to make movies here. And it seems the Big Bill For Billionaires couldn't sink lower, just wait, because pets are next. Then, we are joined by Michelle Velasquez Chief Strategy Officer of Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin on how the aforementioned bill is looking to strip away funding for Planned Parenthood via Medicaid.

With all of this budget talk on today's show and it being very central around the Wisconsin GOP, we wanted to take a moment to highlight something they have done...and that's make it easier for childcare facilities businesses to open child care centers? Yup, they want to give tax credits to the one group not asking for them in the discussion over childcare in this state. Then it's time to talk all things sports with Acme Packing Co. contributor and all around good fella, Paul Noonan. And we wrap up this fantastic show with This Shouldn't Be A Thing - Supermarket Sweet Edition.

The Wisconsin budget process has been no walk in the park (A park the GOP would defund in this budget) and it seems as if the Wisconsin GOP and Governor Evers are at a standoff. Then, Civic Media's very own Jim Santelle joins the show to cover the latest news coming out of the law world. It looks like The Felon President is mad at The Federalist Society because...they're too liberal? And we revisit the Wisconsin GOP who looks to pass a law which harkens back to an election that was neither stolen or unsafe.

If you remember, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos was the target of a recall last year not once, but twice and now the GOP wants to change the rules to "fix" that process. Next, we need to remember this day and time, because Jane agrees with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene on something! Darin Von Ruden is the President of The Wisconsin Farmers Union and every month he joins the show to discuss the news and concerns of farmers across the state.
