In part two of their Halloween special, John and Gordy get into the Big Story: more on yesterday's rally for Kamala Harris at the Alliant Center, with some interviews with attendees. We then dig into healthcare, with comments from Mike Johnson in which he vowed to repeal the ACA (!), as well as a clip from RFK, where he alleges that Trump would put him in charge of public health. We check in briefly with Brittney Merlot for a look at today's weather (not great for Trick or Treating), then get back on the topic of healthcare. After the break, we welcome in John Zumbrunnen, advisor of BadgersVote at UW Madison, to talk about student voting, what BadgersVote does, and the significance of Gen Z as a voting bloc in this election. Wrapping up the show, we chat about the economic plan of Elon Musk if he were part of a Trump presidency, and share a laugh over headlines in the new Onion issue.
