From the depths of a digital abyss, where truth drowns in a sea of clickbait and algorithms, a beacon ignites.

From the heart of Badgerland, from our studios on State Street in downtown Madison, Wisconsin,

It's John and Gordy on 92.7 WMDX.

Everything is in place.

I don't think so.

This is the very first morning that I came in and the headphones are all set up and ready to go.

And almost at the right time.

What happened?

I don't know.

It's crazy.

It's nuts.

Yeah, I know.

We have the right books to prop up the microphone stands.

Yeah, everything has the

books are the same.

Yeah.

Right?

Yeah.

Oh, you know why?

Because Todd Alba is on vacation.

Well, he's not on vacation exactly.

He's on a road trip.

So now we know

who's the one messing things up.

I'm

thinking I'm thinking it's rocker though because he's what he's here on Saturday yeah

rockers

yeah that's true he didn't maybe this

is the same and

maybe

we impressed on him that if anybody changes these books underneath our microphones taking the place for Mike boomstands

There'll be hell to pay.

I was

just going to say that there'll be hell to pay How do you pay with hell?

I don't know how that works.

Yeah, but it sounds good It does happy Monday and happy birthday John Peterson.

Oh, yes, it's a big birthday celebration

Good morning, producer Dom Lee.

Good morning, good morning.

And we actually have a song for John too.

What?

Really?

Yeah, we have a song for him that we, uh, Gordy and I kind of put together.

It actually was all Gordy.

Wait a minute here.

Yeah,

wait.

Are we going to play that now?

Yeah, let's listen.

Let's listen to

that.

Okay.

It's

personal, honest.

I'm kind of a spinal

damper,

you know.

Okay.

You should see

the YouTube video too.

It's just like a bunch of explosions and everything It's the craziest overstimulating thing you'll ever see in your life.

Actually, I saw it.

I have that cut in

in the track list.

I've got a few other cuts in the track list, so let's not play that.

Again, try the other ones if you can just preve him a little bit.

Yeah, that's

great.

It's

just really bad.

I didn't find these things.

My wife did, you know?

Yeah.

Now, I look for you when it was your birthday last Monday.

Right.

And I came up with three, right?

And birthday sex was the...

That's the

one that you

was the one that brought us all down But But she found all of these different versions of birthday in fact she got one that was the three stooches really yeah

And

the good one on this one is that it is an explosion as well.

Yeah, let's let's listen.

Okay.

All right.

Here we go dial it up Here we go push the button and away.

Okay.

Sorry.

All right

Never mind.

Who's ruined your birthday?

We baked you a birthday cake.

If you get it to me, eh?

go.

That's a hard ball.

Fabulous.

So you got big plans for your birthday?

You're going to go out later and start drinking?

Nope.

Do

some

day drinking?

Because my wife's birthday is the next day tomorrow.

Oh.

Yeah.

Really?

They're together.

And we always celebrate hers.

Who cares about mine anymore?

You know,

once you get

this age,

you

know, they're ready to throw you out the window.

You said that coming in too.

You're like, I hate my birthday.

As soon as you walk past me, I'm like, wow.

Mr. Grumpy

pants over

there.

Grumpy pants.

Yeah.

So she's a cancer too.

So you're both moon children.

That's really weird.

Yeah.

Wow.

And it works out OK.

Get along

on everything.

It's like I mentioned, you know, we're looking at that car.

Oh, yeah.

I actually did.

I have a 2022 vehicle, something in

the

20s.

Woo.

Oh, man.

I know.

To take a look at it.

Thank you very much.

We'll have to take a picture of it later.

Well, I

didn't bring it in.

Oh,

you did.

Well, I think it's covered by the insurance, but I didn't

want to take

a chance.

I still don't have it completely covered There there's two versions of that car that I have.

What is a GT?

It's super fast,

right?

And the insurance coverage is really high And I think that's what they quoted me when I when I went on to just add it and I thought I can't do that Hey, yeah, I got a complaint this morning.

Oh, okay What

the hell happened to the lights?

What on the way in

I don't know.

Did you notice that?

Yeah, something changed.

Yeah, I had to sit there for a while.

What the hell is the mayor doing?

Oh man, if you're coming in from the west side on University Avenue,

you might as

well just forget it.

Might as well hitchhike.

Give it up.

Yeah, it did take a while.

I only have a couple of lights.

Every light is bad.

I don't know what happened.

Is it formulated for outbound?

Usually that's how you get.

the bad lighting by bad.

What do you mean?

Like

we get a red light every hour.

Yeah, you're

always getting all the time.

And there's no

traffic.

The

hour.

They should just leave them flashing to about six thirty.

See, we go back to the time when

they had flashing yellow lights.

Right.

That's all you really need at night

when it's nighttime flashing yellow lights.

We all live by that.

Just the caution lights.

And now they just they

I don't know.

I don't know why they went to something else.

But yeah.

Anyway, that's uh, it was a nightmare and I'm I'm really angry, you know, we're gonna have to talk to the mayor about this is not working out for us

I believe you can get sat your roads on the phone Yeah, I don't know what the deal is it baffles me every time when they do something like that I don't know if it's just that they had to they had to shut the system down for a second for the art fair.

Well, maybe

Yeah, maybe

it was for the art

fair.

Maybe they didn't put all of the automatic stuff on the back on.

I don't know.

We'll see if we can find out more information.

I'm

drifting here.

Well, let's get to our morning segment

of the

morning segment.

What would you do if something happened?

What is

it

called?

Would you

rather?

Is it the last time?

It's the last time.

What do you mean it's the last time?

I

mean,

this is the last time I'm going to tell you the right title.

Oh, OK.

Now, here's the thing.

You know, we're living without Catherine listening to the radio show.

Yeah, she's traveling.

Yeah, she's on the West Coast.

So she can't get up early enough to see, or he rather, the show.

Right.

And that is a

sigh of relief brush.

Now, anything's

gonna happen.

Yeah, but she'll be listening to the podcast, so,

you

know, she could still, you know,

send us some notes.

She'll give us critiques, no matter what.

That's all right.

Okay.

All right, let's listen to it.

Would you rather, would you rather, let's do this.

Hit the music.

There we go.

Come on.

Hit it.

All right,

let's get into it.

Get into it.

Is this new music?

No, it's the same old same old.

Okay,

let's go.

Would you rather buy a product that has no demo or a product that has a negative review with no explanation on what's wrong?

So take a chance on buying something with no demo, no reviews.

Like a Lego pack, you open it up and there's no directions.

Oh, okay.

Or a product that has just a terrible review with no explanation on why it has a terrible

review.

I guess I never would do that, so I'll go with the first one.

I think I would yeah, I

know it's so typically men Of course, we don't look at the instructions,

right?

Yeah,

we look at it once we get it all screwed up that

start over like my bed frame

When I first moved here, I didn't use no instructions.

I just went, I just free-balled it.

Really?

And it worked?

It worked.

I think.

Hopefully it didn't fall down to it.

That's why you fell off at the first point.

Okay, what's the next question?

Alright, next question.

Would you rather take a pill that gives you a hundred more healthy years, or a pill that makes you ten times more intelligent than you already are?

Well, I'm happy where I'm at right now Add the ears.

Yeah, I'll be ten times more intelligent.

I think I got room for improvement.

Yeah, I'm going along with you.

Yeah, I gotta go a

mr. No, at all

All right, all right third and final question would you rather eat chicken flavored cookies?

No good or cookie flavored chicken

Cookie flavored chicken.

I'll do that.

That was the quickest response you've had all day Boy, that's no there's no good answer.

There's really not I think I'm gonna go chicken flavored cookies though.

I like yeah, I like the consistency of the cookie But I do like the flavor of it of the chicken Okay,

well they make a product for you.

I'm sure they do I mean chicken flavored crackers and chicken flavored

Cookies, I wouldn't

doubt.

Yeah, I guess.

Would exist, so I guess that's what I'd do.

Or that would just be dog food at that point.

Good me!

Alright, that's it.

Is that it?

That's all we got.

Always three questions.

We're done, so.

Well, I got nothing.

Well, let's look at the weather for today.

We haven't

done that yet.

We haven't

done that yet.

You know, here it is, July 14th.

We're almost halfway through the month and it looks like a pretty nice day.

We've got plenty of sunshine shining on State Street, downtown Madison.

Block off the Capitol.

But

we've got an air alert.

Air quality alert.

Still

noon, I think, right?

Yeah, something like that.

I doubt that.

Why noon?

What's that all

about?

Good question.

Did they stop

the fires by that time?

I don't know.

I

don't think so.

66 degrees.

Currently it feels

like

66 degrees and a high of 87 today low tonight again around 65.

Okay.

What time is

sunset tonight?

John, do you have that handy?

I like to know the sunset time.

Excuse me comfort in my old age.

Well, look forward to 835.

Okay.

If I make it that far, I'll check it out.

All right.

Okay.

Well, that's good.

A little bit later on, well in just a few minutes, we're going to check in with Pam Yonkey.

And find out what's going on.

Of course, you know, the big Dean County fair is this week starting up.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Then we'll be talking with her about that.

And how about

the ice

cream trail?

Oh, yes.

Was that in our promo over the weekend?

Yes.

Yeah.

The ice cream trail.

We'll find out about that.

And that's about it.

Okay.

Well, I don't have anything else.

Well, it's a Monday.

Yeah, that's trying to get everything back in order here.

Okay.

Chicken and the biscuits exists.

That's your neighbor.

Oh, yeah.

I forgot about that.

Oh, I should tell them I decorated the gazebo over the weekend with all the beads that they've been giving me.

Oh, cool.

Yeah.

I didn't know they gave you the beads.

It's 23 minutes past the hour.

Beautiful sunshine today.

Highs in the mid 80s.

And Pam Yonkey joins us this morning.

Fabulous farm babe.

Good morning Pam.

Yeah, good morning, guys.

Today and tomorrow look great.

Unfortunately over the rain that moved through on fr Saturday night, not good news for I know that my friends up at the Sauk County Fair all day to cancel their truck and t night.

And same thing ha fair in Darlington on sa to cancel their truck and t got so much rain that was just about underwater

Wow,

really?

Where was that?

down by Darlington, Lafayette County.

If their fairgrounds just happen to lie right next to kind of the river and the low part of the grounds where some of the barns are in that head standing water from the reports that I got.

So, you know, that's something we don't talk a lot about when it comes to county fairs.

Everybody knows that it's usually really super hot.

We think about the animals taking care of the animals during the heat.

But what we don't stop and think about are those mitigating circumstances that also

to happen like the rain th

They don't get a do over, you know, the truck and tractor pull people have a schedule.

They've got to move on the concert.

Sometimes you'll have a music performer or something.

They've got to move on.

You guys know that you've been

in the

business long enough.

So a

lot of our county fairs, a lot of our county fair is one of the major challenges they have is trying to find insurance companies that can deal with them and deal with them in a financially fiscal, you know, responsible, responsible way.

And we talked to a guy that is

a specialist in working with county fairs, state fairs and things like that, trying to make sure that if there's that kind of an extenuating circumstance, they don't lose everything because stop and think about it.

The money is already invested.

Those performers, those artists like the truck and tractor.

companies, they've got to be paid.

Now they may have a certain percentage that comes off if the show doesn't go on, but they're still going to get their their expenses covered.

But the fair does not, you know, so there's a lot of risk riding on some of the stuff that you see at Connie fairs that I hope people appreciate.

And it's a very unique insurance that they've got to investigate short period of time.

interest, you know, you're, you can't change weather, can't change events.

So it's another one of those elements that I like to try to remind people about when they get ready to enjoy them.

Well, that's a good point.

Are you real?

I never thought about it.

And I have been to a county fair in a little while.

So, uh, yeah, that's something to think about, especially the tractor poles, right?

I mean, you got to bring all that equipment in and, uh, man.

Yep.

Yeah.

Well, and you guys know, you've been in the business long enough.

Think about how many

concerts you've been to, the setup, the lighting, the staging, all of that.

And if it's an outdoor venue, and the artist says, well, you know, there's lightning we can't do like they had to Harley Davidson.

Concert over in Milwaukee that got canceled on Friday because of the lightning possibility Well, you know you you know how that goes you got to be able to cover some of that risk And that's where the unique insurance that county fairs turn to comes into play.

Why I really did rain Friday Friday night Friday afternoon.

It was just incredible my god.

Yeah

Wow, yeah didn't I haven't gotten official some official totals this morning, but like I said and they

we're calling for.

uh, you know, measurable rain again on Saturday night.

And that's why like when you've got saturated ground, there's just nowhere for the rain to go.

And that's really unfortunate when that, when it's a once a year event like a county fair, you know, a lot of people look forward to those kinds of things.

And if you're one of the pullers and you're, you're chasing after points or you want to get on the leaderboard or something and you spend your time loading up and bringing your entire Reagan crew to a site that ultimately isn't going to have a pull.

Boy, you're kicking yourself.

You could have gone farther north or gone in a different direction

and maybe

still caught that pull.

Right?

Absolutely.

Hey Pam, let's talk about the Ice Cream Trail, the Wisconsin Ice Cream Trail.

What's this all about?

Yeah, don't you

love

it?

I sure

hope that people get a chance to take a look at this.

So this is something that the Wisconsin Farm Bureau puts together.

If you go to gatherwisconsin.com, gatherwisconsin.com, you will find the Wisconsin Ice Cream Trail.

Now, in Wisconsin, we've got 49 different licensed ice cream plants that are making it.

But this map focuses in on, I believe it's 20 or 21 unique stops in Wisconsin.

Every one of them has got a story.

And if you take a look at, I was teasing one of my TV guys on Friday about it.

If you take a look at it, tell me how many you have visited.

I've been to one or two, but I'm surprised by how few I've gotten a chance to visit, and I'm a pretty big ice cream fan.

But like I said, every one of them has a little bit of a story, and they're located from really all across the state of Wisconsin.

And I think that the Gather Wisconsin folks are interested for feedback.

If you find

one that's unique, that's not on the path.

Now for you two, if you feel ambitious and you want to celebrate John's birthday properly, you will walk just down the state and down the street.

to Babcock Dairy.

Babcock Dairy is just on the street from you guys and that's one of the 20 21 stops on the unique ice cream trail that you can take a look at gatherwisconsin.com.

It's a downloadable PDF that you can tuck in your glove box if you're somebody that travels for work or if you're taking the kids on vacation and you want something to have them remember special about a location.

They've got them all over the place to take a look at.

We might have to do that right after the show, John.

We've got the John and Gordy hike up to Columbus for Sassy Cow.

Oh, yeah, the Sassy

Cow.

We like that,

too.

That's

another good one, too.

Yep.

I wholeheartedly endorse that,

too.

Great.

Pam, thank you.

Pam, we're all out of time.

All right,

happy birthday, John.

Thank

you.

That's Pam Miyake, the fabulous farm babe.

We'll be back with more of John and Gordy right after this.

There is a place without boundaries, a place without limits.

Welcome to Costco.

I love you.

A place that is about to be

violated.

The smart guy in the world.

You're pretty dumb sometimes.

Oh my God.

Yeah.

I didn't know they had a Costco down in Verona.

Yes.

Yeah.

Really nice.

Yeah.

Big

brand new one down

there.

Yeah.

This portion.

Idiocracy.

There's a lot of it.

Yeah, what's happening?

You know by the way over the weekend I just want to mention this I went to the art fair on the square you did and off the square I took a few pictures threw them online there.

You can see them on our Facebook page

Facebook

page.

It was on the Johnny Gordy Facebook.

Yes, I threw it on there Wow yesterday.

Yeah, you didn't look no Well, you know what and did there's so many and told me that you

yeah posted some photos there.

Yeah

I mean, it was a great time.

I went there yesterday afternoon and it was starting to wind down a little bit.

I don't like to go on Saturday because it's really crowded.

Right.

Usually.

Yeah.

But yesterday was fine.

Oh, really?

Sundays look slower.

That's the way to go.

But yeah, it was really great.

And I spun the wheel at the Channel 27.

Wheel of Schlock or whatever you want to call them.

Wheel of Merch.

And I got a little tote bag.

Wow.

With their logo on it.

That's pretty nice.

You didn't get one at

15 when you worked

there.

No, never got anything there.

I worked there almost five years.

Got nothing.

No

leather bag.

Nothing.

You didn't even get a number two pencil with the logo on it.

Nothing.

She skates.

Anyway, it was great to see people yesterday and it was a beautiful day for the art fair.

That's

fantastic.

No, on the idiocracy, for your birthday.

Happy birthday, John Peterson.

Thanks for bringing that up again.

Anybody you want to wish John a happy birthday greeting, why don't you send him a voice note?

Go to our Civic Media app.

Click on the voice note and just rubbing it in now or express your wishes to John Peterson's birthday.

All right.

Well.

You know, it's, uh, every time it's my birthday, I think of Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Oh, who doesn't?

So I got a whole story here.

Marjorie Taylor

Greene.

Really?

For

a diacrosis.

Oh, what

did she do?

Well, uh, she doesn't know that the mega plan is to keep the middle income families down.

You know,

you have to live paycheck to paycheck.

That's normalizing their low expectations for their life.

And so now.

She's complaining.

She doesn't understand that this is the whole makeup plan.

So anyway, let's listen to her finally, you know, kind of.

Telling it like it is.

This is

what we're all we've been saying this for years Marjorie.

Okay, let's listen to this

$7 trillion in debt Just like you and I were speaking before our kids generations.

My kids are 22 25 and 27 and our children's generation They can't afford rent.

They can't afford to buy a house.

They can't afford insurance They can't buy a new car.

They can't find a good paying job They're living month to month paycheck to paycheck credit card bills stacked up and they literally look to the future

how am I ever going to realize the American dream?

And it seems hopeless for them.

There you go.

Yeah.

Yep.

Welcome to the

club.

Yeah.

Welcome to the make a plan

for

the economy.

Now that we've given all the tax cuts to the wealthy, right?

Let's keep going with that plan.

Right.

Oh my God.

I mean, the make a party made them unable to buy the house.

You know, right?

They're against the minimum wage hike.

Yeah,

they're taking away your health care and they've killed the American dream because they're creating something new it's Making America great again, whatever the hell that means and now of course they're blaming the debt on poor people Not the tax cuts poor people are spending money left and right

from the government really

making the government go broke, okay, so what you know

If only they would just get a clue and it's so simple.

I think it's driving everybody nuts.

So

simple, understand this.

We just can't break that barrier, that weird cult barrier that they're up in.

Well, it's finally, it's good to see that Marjorie Taylor Green is

going through the same

horrible experience.

She's seen the light.

She hasn't

seen

the light.

Well, she thinks this is normal.

This is the way it is.

I don't know how she thinks her kids.

She has Jen's ears.

Right.

How they're ever going to get ahead.

I mean, what is she doing about them being able to buy a house or getting

a higher

wage or

having

health insurance and not living paycheck?

What is she doing for nothing?

Hmm.

My God, I just.

You just.

Well.

Anyway, just settle

down.

It's your birthday.

There's nothing you

can do.

Now I'm really mad.

Just hang on.

Take a deep breath.

There we go.

You're loud.

It's your birthday.

You can rant all you want today.

Why not?

All right, okay, you know this is

you

okay

now.

I am I'm kind of better, but I've got another horror story here Okay, bring it.

This is a diocracy bring it right.

Yeah.

All right This is this is gonna freak everybody out.

I think if you haven't heard about it, you had David Ferenhold He's a reporter investigative reporter he came out with this this bomb in a court filing the tax agency

Said a decades-old ban on campaigning by tax-exempt groups should not apply to houses of worship speaking to their own members in other words that You yeah, you're not supposed to endorse candidates from the pulpit.

You can't do it or else you lose your tax exempt

status.

Now, I don't think anybody's ever lost their tax exempt status.

If they've picked a candidate, you know, on the Republican side, they're notorious for breaking this rule.

Right.

And they haven't been penalized for it, but it's, it's, it's actual.

This is now in place.

Now, now the thing is, I think, you know, do they really want to go down this road, right?

Where religious beliefs now represent a political position.

That seems like a really dangerous prospect, right?

Partisan politics, infecting religion, was a surprise nuking, I think, in this case, of the social fabric that we have in this country.

You know, you have the freedom of religion,

but you

don't cross it over, you don't bring it in, you don't bring your religion into your politics, or else when your politics are out of favor, so is your damn religion, right?

So...

You don't want that.

And they keep wanting things that will completely destroy everything we have going in this country in the first place.

That's what it's all about for them.

They want

it.

Now I got a clue.

Now I'm starting to catch on.

It's a slippery

slope.

It is a slippery slope.

Religion and politics.

Yeah.

But you don't want to cross over.

You don't want them to co-exist.

No.

Be the same.

That's why we're not a Christian nation because once you do that, Christianity can get a really bad name when you have Trump in office.

Oh, wait, that's going on right now.

What am I talking about?

Oh, God.

Please.

All right.

Mahmood Khalil.

You remember him?

Mahmoud Khalil.

He filed a $20 million claim against the Trump administration for false imprisonment.

The Guardian wrote, Khalil was falsely imprisoned, maliciously prosecuted and smeared as an anti-Semite, as the government sought to deport him over his prominent role in the campus protest, Columbia.

Remember this?

Yes.

Columbia College.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So he, uh, he's suing them and, and rightfully so, man, this

guy

went through a lot of hell.

Right.

He said, uh, Trump and his administration, they chose the wrong person for this.

That doesn't mean there is a right person for this.

There is no

right

person who should be detained for actually protesting a genocide.

And that's a comment from him.

Khalil is returning home to his son now.

He has a chance to go.

And finally, yeah, his son was born while he was in prison.

Right.

So, yeah.

Well, that's that's good that he's

got that chance and

suing and I hope he gets the $20 million.

Yeah.

What the

hell?

That's absolutely ridiculous.

And he just participated in protests.

Mm hmm.

You

should be

able to do that in this country.

You

know, they

act like the only U.S.

citizens can do this stuff.

Anybody can do this stuff.

It's freedom.

Right.

That's what it's all

Try to set up that.

Yes, I know.

Remote from the changes

somewhere.

I think, yeah, the Elcatraz.

What is it?

The

alligator Elcatraz?

Yeah.

I've heard the Auschwitz Elcatraz as well.

What?

Yeah, that's what they're saying, too, that Auschwitz

Elcatraz.

Well, they've gotten some video, some pictures out of the place.

And yeah, it is.

They're in

cages.

Yeah.

Politicians went in and they were

just devastated.

They were allowed to look like.

Yeah.

Florida legislators were allowed to go in and take a tour.

I know.

They didn't

like it.

A Democratic representative went in and she was complaining about the the toilets.

Right.

And the

sink.

And it was

just

minimal stuff.

That was W. Washington.

Was it?

Was it?

Yeah.

Now, here's the thing and, uh, and it's familiar with all this stuff.
