John and Gordy shift to a new afternoon slot, urging listeners not to abandon them. Former Madison Mayor Paul Soglin joins to discuss the Wisconsin governor's race, emphasizing the need for candidates to connect with disenfranchised voters and outline decisive policies on healthcare and minimum wage. Heated calls from listeners tackle claims of missing immigrant children and criticize the Biden administration. There's banter about weather predictions, with a potential polar vortex looming, and a humorous struggle with technical difficulties over sound cuts. Local events, like the Godfather of Green Bay screening, provide a lighter note.
