Maggie Daun and guest host Tom Palzewicz deliver a fiery critique of Republican lawmakers, lambasting their cowardice and failure to stand against authoritarianism, while emphasizing the importance of courage and democracy. Touching on recent mass shootings and the hollow 'thoughts and prayers' response, Maggie and Tom urge action over rhetoric. Plus, they pivot to an exciting preview of the NFL Draft in Green Bay. Aaron Popkey, Director of Public Affairs for the Green Bay Packers, joins the conversation to help celebrate the Packers' unique legacy and invite fans to experience the spectacle. Maggie shares her own personal encounter with Roger Goodell. Spoiler alert: He bought the scotch! And apparently, Ryan Clark is not a fan of Aaron Rodgers...
