With Dr. Ken out, the legendary Homer Blow steps in and welcomes Bria Grant from Milwaukee Crime Stoppers for a powerful hour of conversation. Bria shares what the organization is all about, how the community can get involved, and why it’s time to drop the old connotations about “snitching.” Together, they unpack the real impact Crime Stoppers has had — from crimes solved and drugs seized to lives saved — and how reward opportunities often go unclaimed. The hour wraps up with a deeper discussion on police pay raises and whether more money means better results. It’s an honest, grounded talk about safety, trust, and responsibility in Milwaukee’s neighborhoods.

The second hour keeps the conversation flowing as Homer Blow and Bria Grant pivot from crime to community. Homer dives into the ongoing SNAP benefit issues, challenging the racial narratives often pushed around who really relies on food assistance. The discussion expands into politics, distraction, and division, touching on how attention is constantly redirected from what truly matters. A lively call from Al adds his signature flair — sparking a real talk about why community gaps run deep and how we only seem to come together in hard times or at funerals. Homer and Bria close the hour with a heartfelt reminder: community is built through consistent connection, not crisis.

Dr. Ken kicks off the hour with a breakdown of the newly passed MPS 2025–26 budget and why every penny counts. GP joins for sports talk, celebrating a big Bucks comeback and the latest in the World Series. Then, Dr. Ken explores how Wisconsin tech colleges are quietly dropping words like “equity” and “access,” and closes the hour asking: Is Milwaukee’s future high tech or hands on—and how do we make sure our youth succeed?

The second hour starts strong with Packers talk and concern over safety net programs at risk during the government shutdown. Dr. Ken highlights Milwaukee food banks stepping up, a troubling local gunfight, and the MPS Board’s budget approval—then asks: does it matter how much a man spends on a date? The conversation heats up with listener comments, poll results, and a story about misguided assumptions about the Black community during COVID. Dr. Ken wraps by reflecting on effort vs. amount—and what really matters in life and love.

A 9-year-old is struck by an 89-year-old driver — sparking a fiery debate: should there be an age limit for driving? Dr. Ken pushes back against public backlash over the arrest while calling out the police department’s handling of the case. The hour also dives into reckless driving at 107 mph with kids in the car, a live food drive donation, and a YouTube poll asking: Is Milwaukee evolving for the better?

Dr. Ken counts down the Top 5 @ 5 — from a Category 5 hurricane in Jamaica to Wisconsin’s billion-dollar freeway expansion and a controversial prison overhaul. He then investigates whether the 89-year-old driver could actually face charges, and asks a deeper question: do we follow morals or the law? The hour ends with a lively call-in debate, reflections on forgiveness, and Dr. Ken’s closing thoughts.

Dr. Ken kicks off the hour talking about the upcoming Truth Summit — and why Milwaukee’s priorities have him shaking his head again. With city leaders focused on raising the tobacco age instead of tackling reckless driving and violence, Dr. Ken and Truth Nation weigh in. GP stops by to celebrate the Packers’ big W (and lament the Badgers’ lack of them), before Dr. Ken dives into food allergies, talk-to-text tangents, and a fiery constitutional question: Is there ever a crime bad enough to suspend our rights? Callers sound off with passion — and a founding father quote...

It’s the Top 5 @ 5 — from the Packers’ win to a tense debate over tobacco laws, food bank struggles, rising Obamacare premiums, and lingering courthouse controversies. Truth Nation calls in hot, agreeing, disagreeing, and keeping Dr. Ken on his toes. The conversation turns to how local government decisions impact us more than federal ones, and Dr. Ken closes the show with straight talk, sharp insight, and a challenge to think deeper.

Dr. Ken kicks off the show with GP, Spaulding, Jessica, and Tiff for a thought-provoking panel on how news gets made — and what doesn’t. From sports gambling scandals to media silence, they unpack why certain stories dominate headlines while others disappear. The team debates editorial choices, public interest, and the fine line between news judgment and bias.

Dr. Ken rolls through his Top 5 @ 5 — from the Packers’ matchup with the Steelers to major concert news in Milwaukee. Dr. Ken then tackles whether adding security to MCTS buses is a smart move and fields a fiery call from Vincent on Trump’s fundraising tactics. The hour closes with a Milwaukee classic: what makes the WE Energies cookie book such a local obsession?
