In hour two, the guys dive back into yesterday's topic of DOGE's efforts to privatize Social Security. We listen to a long clip of Representative John Larson, giving an impassioned speech calling on his fellow representatives to make congress show some spine against the overreach of the executive branch. We take a look away from our computer screens and peek outside, checking on the weather with our WMDX meteorologist Brittney Merlot, and later, walk through some poll numbers. They show, on all the major issues, that a supermajority of American citizens don't support the policies and efforts of the Trump-Musk administration. Wrapping up today's show, the guys welcome on Judy Davidoff, publisher of Isthmus, to chat about some of the big stories in this month's issue.
