Well,
hey there, Wisconsin.
Good morning.
It is Friday, September 12, 2025.
It is another beautiful morning to have you here up north live from Lake Wissota from wherever you're listening across the civic media radio network.
And if you're listening instead as a podcast or through the website or watching us on social media,
That counts just as much.
We love having all of you here to wrap up the work week.
I got a question for you, and it's actually not about last night's Packer game.
It's, would you like to go to at least one more Milwaukee Brewer's game?
Stick around.
The key word for Free Ticket Friday is coming up in less than 15 minutes.
Coming up on the program today, President Trump finally approves disaster relief for flash flood victims in Southeast Wisconsin.
but only after telling another lie about the 2020 election.
We'll talk to Courier Newsroom's Keva Keel at 622 about the ongoing effort to tone down the violent rhetoric in the wake of this week's political violence.
We'll ask former U.S.
Attorney Jim Santel at 722 to make it make sense.
The same U.S.
Supreme Court
that says race cannot be a consideration for college admissions, says race can be an issue in deciding whether law enforcement can pull over, harass, or even detain people they only suspect of not being citizens.
We'll ask journalists Mark Jacob and Jennifer Schulze at 735 about the coverage of the Charlie Kirk murder, especially the double standard that accompanies the sanewashing taking place about Kirk's place in American political discourse.
Just after 8 a.m., we're going to ask Dr. Kristen Lierly about not a doctor, Robert Kennedy Jr., and the misinformation he's spreading about autism and Tylenol.
And Mike Clemens will help us review last night's Packers' win over Washington, 27 to 18, a great game, but comes with at least one noteworthy injury.
as well.

There's a daily one that our new newsletter editor, Ellie, is putting together and then a Sunday morning one with a focus on Wisconsin politics.
Ellie's newsletter today includes stories on Wisconsin breweries and beer gardens that welcome dogs.
If you want to take your pump for a pint and nine of Wisconsin's prettiest autumn drives, it is definitely time to start thinking about where you want to go on the weekend if you get some free time and maybe want to do a little road tripping.
So again, sign up for that in our newsletter over at UpNorthNewsWI.com.
Down to Madison we go.
In Studio A2 we find Parker Olson, who, like a lot of us, stayed up a little bit past our bedtime.
But by and large, it was worth it, Mr. Olson.
Would you agree?
we're
I your support can sometimes get to be a little emotional.
And that's why I would like to have for everybody's benefit, a dramatic reinterpretation, if you could go back in time, about five, six minutes or so, when you heard off air, that when Jaden Reed went down with that injury in the end zone, you did not know until five minutes ago, he broke his collarbone.
great.
But the the.
I don't know.
I was going to say the hero of the game, the surprise of the game, the breakout of the game, tight end Tucker Kraft.
OK, holy cow.
That he's good.
He, he just like kind of epitomizes what I think of football, like good football.
Cause when I think football, I think very Midwestern, I think like down and dirty, run the ball, tight ends, big tight ends, blocking, but he can catch two, which is really cool.
And he's just so fun.
Isn't he awesome?
Oh, yes.
And the thing is, and again, I'm not doing fantasy football this year.
I've done it in the past.
So I know that one of the difficult things is it's one thing to have your quarterback and who's going to be your wide receiver, who's going to be your running back.
Tight ends are a little tougher deal because they're a combination of players, basically.
Yeah.
And, you know, if you get if you get the maybe two, maybe three good ones on the team, you know, you're still you're doing okay.
But beyond that, it's tough.
So anybody who has
Tucker Kraft and then started him yesterday.
They're happy campers because he he had quite the breakout performance.
a
It was I want to say it was a good thing that Jordan Love tried you know tried to go deep as often as he did.
He's got he's got a cannon.
It's just that a lot of them weren't connecting.
But at no point was I looking going, oh, he's off the mark or the receivers are off the mark.
There was just, there was some good past defense by Washington last night.
Yep.
And, you know, the, the commander's quarterback, Jaden Daniels, he's really good.
He was surprisingly good last year, his first year as a starter.
And so it actually was a pretty big deal that the pass rush kept his numbers unusually low.
And so again, I'll it all finished with the 27 18 when we'll have more to say about it throughout the course of the morning here But the other thing to know is that the Packers now they will not be playing this Sunday obviously So get out and about if you got to do anything because the Packers now have nine days off before the next game the mini but it'll be Sunday September 21st at Cleveland and a noon start and you can hear it across several civil radio stations.
Oh, what's that?
Oh
Well, what will you watch the game together?
We'll see.
All right.
You've also got the Wisconsin Badgers football team in Alabama for the first time playing tomorrow.
Kickoff at 11 pregame at nine on civic media stations in Richland Center, Amory, Wisconsin Rapids and Ripon.
And I heard Mike Clemens saying before, you know, it's been a long time since the Badgers beat Alabama in 1928.
Well, I looked it up and I mean, the teams have only played.
Yes, before, you know, there was the first game in Madison 1928, the Badgers win 15 to nothing.
And the other was in 2015 at AT&T Stadium home of the Dallas Cowboys when Alabama beat Wisconsin 3517.
So not a deep history.
No,
Yeah, especially when, yeah, the Badgers are big time underdogs, but that could make the game that much more fun to watch and or listen to.
And the Brewers were off yesterday.
They will be taking on the St.
Louis Cardinals.
Coverage begins tonight at 635 on stations in Richland Center.
Oshkosh, Racine, Kenosha, Park Falls and Hayward.
So what do you say?
We just get to that free ticket Friday keyword right about
All right.
So the deal on Free Ticket Friday is pretty simple.
Use that Civic Media app, call up one of the stations where you hear the show, use the text feature, text us a keyword, and then do it again throughout the course of the day, different keywords on different shows.
And then among all those statewide entries, one will be plucked out to win four great seats to a specific brewers game.
For today, the tickets are for the game next Thursday night against the Anaheim Angels.
All right, so you got to be able to go to that game next Thursday night.
You got to be able to get and use electronic tickets on your phone.
And if that all applies to you, the keyword until nine o'clock this morning is catch.
C-A-T-C-H.
Catch, like catch a ball.
Catch is the keyword between now and nine.
You can start texting that in and then listen to more keywords throughout the course of the day for your chance to win on this free ticket Friday.
Okay, as mentioned, President Donald Trump was very full of himself yesterday, putting out word on his tiny social media account that he had graciously agreed to something like $30 million in emergency disaster relief for flesh flood victims in southeast Wisconsin.
That's a good thing.
It provides certainty for
people who have been putting off getting bids and making plans for fixing the damage because thousands of homes were affected by the flash flooding.
But of course, he couldn't just leave it at that.
It included a line in his tweet about, you know, that Wisconsin, we won big there in 2016, 2020 and 2024, and I'm happy to deliver for the state of Wisconsin.
You didn't win in 2020.
Again, he's still putting the big lie out there.
but at least the funding has been okay.
Another note that I wanted to pass along actually comes out of Brazil, where a panel of Supreme Court justices sentenced the former president, Jair Bolsonaro, to 27 years in prison Thursday after convicting him of attempting a coup to remain in office despite his 2022 electoral defeat.
Bolsonaro was an army captain who became the country's first right-wing president and has always denied any wrongdoing.
He can try to appeal the ruling of the five justices to all 11 justices.
He's currently under house arrest.
Bolsonaro was convicted on charges of attempting to use the military to kill his rival who defeated him in that 2022 election.
That would be the current president, Luis and Anasio Lula de Silva.
Bolsonaro's co-conspirators, three generals, and an admiral were also sentenced for their roles.
So because Bolsonaro was a right winger who would use the military for personal power, you can see where this is going with our own president who attempted a coup, right?
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the administration, quote, will respond accordingly to this witch hunt.
And Trump has already applied a 50% tariff on imported Brazilian goods,
which it said was in reaction to the process against Bolsonaro.
So they're basically admitting that your prices are going to go up for any Brazilian goods for personal and political spite.
Is this some abstract thing for Wisconsin?
Not if you grow soybeans or have anything to do with a bunch of other exports, because Trump's made up trade war with China means, as we learned it yesterday from Sean O'Malley talking about your money in the markets,
China has not yet placed a single order for US soybeans this season.
They bought billions of dollars worth last year.
Where's China going for those soybeans?
Yeah, Brazil.
One of the four justices who voted to convict yesterday said Bolsonaro was the instigator, the leader of an organization that orchestrated every possible move to maintain or seize power.
Don't doubt for a moment,
that their inspiration came from watching Trump less than two years earlier orchestrate and instigate and attempted coup with fake electors, undermining election credibility, trying to strong arm state officials to falsify election results, flood the courts with meritless lawsuits, and when all that failed, summon a mob, that included Derek Van Orden, and whip it into a violent frenzy.
It fell short.
Bolsonaro came a little bit closer.
Now, in the good old days, you could understandably say, well, the Brazil case is different in that he plotted to kill his opponent, except that Trump has now appointed Supreme Court justices who were literally asking if he could use SEAL Team 6 to kill an opponent.
And they answered, sure, why not?
So long as he feels it's part of his official duties.
So the lesson to draw is simple.
Voters can restore a democracy and defeat authoritarians, but expect resistance again.
And so this time be ready to defend our government and our democracy with real consequences for anyone who tries to plot the next coup against our nation.

I'm all right, Pat.
Yeah, for folks that don't follow regularly Kia is as national political editor He sees a lot of the copy That's written in the videos that are put out by all of the various state-based outlets of courier newsroom Up north news is is one of them and so not only is he seeing all of the events of the week through a state lens But he's seen multiple versions of them
And Kia, I know one of the themes that we have talked about behind the scenes here is about toning down the rhetoric, which, yes, in Wisconsin we've acknowledged is a little tougher because of the language of Congressman Derek Van Orden, but setting that aside, I feel like by and large, much of the nation remains unified behind the notion of...
Don't take an already volatile situation and make it worse with politics right now
Yeah, I think if you went out and surveyed a hundred people in person you'd probably get 80 90% agreement on that I think the problem is is like online is a different story because the social media algorithms that You know have been produced have been created to just
Bring out the worst in people and then amplify that to everyone Really suggest otherwise they suggest that Everyone in the whole country on the right and even some on the left are frothing at the mouth right now and are celebrating this and our Jazz didn't think you know by celebrating this we mean you know the assassination of Charlie Kirk obviously and right it's
I tend to think this is an instance where the reaction online is not at all mirrored by what most people believe in their day-to-day life and people who aren't terminally online.
But yeah, I think we've seen most elected officials, certainly every Democratic elected official I've seen has condemned this and called for toning down the rhetoric unless no political violence.
I've seen a lot of Republicans do the same, not all.
You know, we have a man in the White House who has already tried to pin this on the radical left, even though we have literally no information about who the shooter is.
Regardless, assassinating someone for their political beliefs is not a thing that we want to see happen in the US.
I don't agree with Charlie.
I didn't agree with Charlie Kirk on much of anything, maybe not anything at all.
But watching and I made the mistake of watching the video and it was horrific.
And it does not lead anywhere good to have these sorts of things happen to conservatives, liberals, anyone, frankly, and to have the handful of lawmakers or activists or just fringe accounts online, fueling hate and division and calling for war or revenge is terrifying.
You know,
Derek Van Orden, you mentioned.
He's been one of the more egregious ones I've seen.
And, you know, we're reporters.
He clearly does not like us.
He does not like Democrats.
He does not like trans people.
There's a whole lot of people he doesn't like, and he's tried to blame this on.
And there's one person who deserves blame, and it's the person who shot Charlie Kirk.
And, you know, it's
It's just a really sad state of affairs that this is where we are just like it was sad when Melissa Horton and got killed in Minnesota a couple months ago and governor Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania his the governor's residence was fire bombed in the spring.
And it's it's a little terrifying it feels like we're going through a period of time where political violence is normalized and you know.
Again, I agree with Charlie Kirk on nothing.
He did not deserve to get shot in the neck and get killed that way.
No one deserves that and No, it's just terrifying that that's where we are as a as a body politic right now
I'm sure I'm gonna bring this up in just over an hour with our weekend review panel when we talk about media coverage But one thing I want to put out there social media wise and we refer to Twitter now X as a dumpster fire and so much of social media can be garbage
But I have always said from the very beginning that these sites YouTube and others have to and must do a better job of guarding against graphic footage being shared so readily.
That was my first exposure to it was the what's called the auto roll feature so that as you're scrolling down through your feed
there's the video right there, not an option, not a warning screen or anything like that.
And I hear these companies say, well, we're too big, we can't possibly do that.
Well, then there's something wrong here that needs to be fixed.
I know people like instant gratification on media, but
Our whole role as journalists, you know, is in part gatekeeper to say, this is too graphic to share, for example.
And so I'm using up your time on my soapbox.
But when you saw, you talked about seeing it, same here with with no given no option one way or the other.
And I it's I wish I hadn't seen it.
It's
I've replayed it in my head a lot of times today.
It's not the first clip of someone being killed.
I've seen on X unfortunately There is no shortage of those those clips over the last several years They're all horrifying every one of them feels like it chips away at our humanity a little bit Whether it's someone I like or agree with or no or don't know it's all horrifying and yeah, I think these companies just
in every single way are just catastrophically responsible for a lot of where we're at politically.
A lot of politicians are as well, but I think the way we just treat human life with such callous disregard at this point, a lot of it can be tied to social media and both what it incentivizes and then what it amplifies to people, especially in moments like this.
It really again comes down to something that we've been talking about since the start of Courier Newsroom and Up North News and that is looking for those trusted sources, fact-based, credible, and frankly folks who aren't going to
put that kind of stuff right in front of you.
There are other ways to inform without having to use shock value and we are very fortunate to have you amongst others as our editors to keep us on the straight and normal for that path.
You have a Keel Career Newsroom's National Political Editor.
Thanks for the visit.
I hope you have a good weekend.
Thanks, YouTube Pat.
Back with today's history lesson in just a moment.
You know, there's admittedly not a lot of female artists that fit right there on the Yacht Rock playlist, but Maria Moldauer.
Right there with something like how smooth is midnight at the Oasis Maria Moldauer as a birthday today.
She turns 83 years old today Welcome to today's history lesson on a yacht rock Friday where we we cannot set sail as the Kraitlo Yacht Rock pontoon does every Friday here on a sea of sarcasm Without Greg Bach joining us as well.
Mr. Bach.
Good morning.
Hello, everybody.
I'm in charge of poop deck
How are you did you stay up late for the whole game?
I stayed up late for none of the game.
I went to bed very early because I was it was yesterday was a very long day and then I came home and
One of the, I'll bring it up again.
One of the things about using the CPAP now
is when
you do fall off sleep on that couch, it's no longer like, oh god.
It's like, no, I'm actually just really tired.
I need to go to bed.
Yes,
yes.
You got to get that rest where you can.
And I'm always thankful when the Packers get comfortably to a point, as they did early in the fourth quarter, where it's like.
All right, this is looking good.
And if they blow this, I don't want to be awake to watch it anyway.
I'll just I'll just see it in the morning.
So it worked out all right.
Let's see today's history lesson includes the Constitutional Convention.
This day in 1787 is when delegate George Mason suggested adding a Bill of Rights to the Constitution.
But the motion was defeated.
They later became the first 10 amendments to the Constitution four years later.
All
right, we're yes.
Yes, Mr. Bob.
I was gonna say Pat really quick fun fact.
Yes, the word amendment comes from the word amend
which means to change, which means you can change the Constitution if you wanted to.
I'm just putting that out there.
Fun fact, English.
Yes, yes, we really could.
Well, regulated militia.
Yeah.
So we're getting to the part of the history lesson now here in mid-September with a lot of TV premieres.
And, you know, you don't have the catchy theme song so much as you do, you know, or did back in the olden days like this iconic theme from a show that premiered
NBC this day in 1959.
Bonanza premiered on September 12, 1959.
It was the first regularly scheduled TV program presented in color.
And again, again, we make so much of this about generations,
but
Hold on hold on hold on don't get that look Parker looking off into the middle distance.
That's
that's the one
What did you have did you just look at drawings upon the screen back in the day?
How did you take in your television entertainment?
to read the newspaper to be entertained
Nobody told Parker about the days when only radio was the medium of entertainment.
Yes.
And then we went from black and white to color.
But we see that still in.
You just talked about watching Hogan's Heroes and the first like season was in black and white.
The first season of Gilligan's Island was in black and white.
So you can only see where the dividing line is.
Yeah.
For all these.
Why the Flintstones were in black and white initially.
I don't know.
That one doesn't seem to make sense to me.
But they were
pencils.
Yes.
Bonanza anyway was set in the 1860s.
and centered on the wealthy Cartwright family who lived in the vicinity of Virginia City, Nevada, bordering Lake Tahoe.
You probably know it better as Yellowstone.
They just added more sex and violence later.
The Dutton's before the Dutton.
So Bonanza is another.
is another Yellowstone prequel series.
That Taylor shared it.
I mean, knew what he was doing up, you know, his
60, 60 year old white man around the country.
Like I knew it.
I just, I can't see a house and little Joe saying, you know, take him to the train station.
It just doesn't, doesn't work that way.
Another premiere.
Let's move up to 1966.
This was another NBC premiere and a theme everybody
knows.
So there
was the four actors chosen to portray a pop band based on the Beatles.
While the monkeys are a fictional band, they did become very real and eventually played on their own recordings, but not in the beginning.
It was studio music musicians prior to
that.
legendary songwriters writing for them too, including Neil Sadaka, Carol King, Neil Diamond.
Yes.
And fun fact, and I mentioned this before, it was the first concert I ever went to in 1986 for the monkey's 20th anniversary tour with a little known artist up and coming.
No one, he's kind of faded into the distance as in the past like 10 years.
Weird El Yankovic.
him.
Yeah.
Leesh puts on YouTube, and little Joe would later go on to become Pah Angles.
Yes.
He's just
really
stuck in that old daylight.
He's just cast me in anything in the 19th century.
That's my sweet spot.
Yep.
Hey, it worked.
One more premiere to talk about Taxi.
Premiered on ABC this day in 1978.
Oh, I struck a nerve with Greg.
Is this, oh, I
I didn't queue it up.
I
believe that taxi has the greatest theme song ever.
Like
Barney Miller's great.
Oh, no, we had we had this fight last year, Greg.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Taxi had the worst TV theme ever.
There was nothing about it that sounded like a comedy.
It was it was like you were expecting, you know the the cast of You know some other serious drama show to come in now.
Here's a great tells me I'm wrong
like the bear or something Yeah
I don't know why like you just can't find nuance in things and like art and and the fact that a New York taxi taxi cab driver in the 70s.
That was
hard work, man.
It
was hard
work.
And then you came to your little space and you found joy and levity, but you still had to go back into the cold world and deal with people.
I think that's the I think that theme song is perfect.
if we would like bring it.
I would I would make a request.
OK,
Yeah.
Technical difficulties.
I love it.
I don't
miss this part.
It's a recorder.
Wait for it.
Wait for the wait for the low five seventies funk to kick in.
Yes.
Come on.
I mean, this, again, this is great for on the yacht, but a 70s taxicab, it just, it didn't do it for me.
But I liked the range of opinions on this show.
Parker, mute your mic.
No one wants to hear
back, Parker.
We missed you already.
On this day in 1962, President Kennedy delivered at Rice University, the infamous We Choose to Go to the Moon speech.
Nailed that one by 1969.
Let's see, this is the anniversary of the birth of Barry White, born this day in 1944.
See now Greg will do a lot of Michael McDonald impressions.
I didn't know if you were going to go down for Barry or not.
I feel like any unless you can really nail that voice anything is anything less than then.
Yeah, Barry White is disrespectful.
But
I'm like.
Yeah.
But you know, the one good thing about getting a head cold, if you get the kind of head cold that brings your voice way down when you can do the very only when you're sick and you're like, how come I can't make my voice do this when I'm healthy?
Well, you just can't.
So
I'll do my very white impressions at 5 30 in the morning for about 12 minutes.
Then I have to move
on.
That's your warm up today.
See, brand new commenter on YouTube.
Oh,
boy.
Leaf going, if that hadn't been used in taxi, it would have been the intro to
A soft-born movie on early cinemax.
Leaf off the top rope.
And you know what?
That
film, that film, yes, I said film.
Film, film, yeah.
Would be respected for that.
It's a bold choice.
It's a bold choice.
Leaf, that was beautiful.
Thank you.
The late Neil Pert drummer for Rush was born this day in 1952.
Singer-songwriter Ben Folds is 59 years old today.
Jennifer Nettles from Sugarland turns 51 years old today.
She's
got that kind of, if you took Reba McIntyre and exaggerated it a little bit and like almost too much, she almost gets so...
If you made Reba McIntyre stay real late and record.
Yeah, exactly.
Let's see.
Emmy Rossum, actress, you know her from Shameless.
She's 39 years old today.
On this day in 1910, the country's first known female police officer, Alice Wells, was appointed by the LAPD.
Again, that was this day back in 1910.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Happy birthday to Jennifer Hudson.
She turns 44 years old today.
We've got Sydney Sweeney who turns 28 years old today and has a new movie out today where she portrays a boxer.
Let's see, singer Kelsey Ballerini has a birthday today.
She is 32.
Oh,
let's
see, on the national day calendar, this is chocolate milkshake day.
Oh, approve.
Oh, I like that.
Yeah.
You know, I haven't had a good old fashioned chocolate milkshake.
I mean, I'll get one of McDonald's, nothing against them or anything.
But you know the kind of talk about it was really rich and chocolatey.
The key is when they bring the steel can and pour
it into the
glass cup.
Oh, yes, the canister.
Yes.
Yeah, the canister, yeah.
Yes,
the way they used to do it.
There used to be all these ice cream places like Bridgeman's and Ferrell's and other places like that and we don't have a good ice cream joint.
like the way that we used to in a lot of places.
And I think we've had this discussion before, too, if there was one that would be open.
Actually, there's a nice place in Racine, actually, down here, downtown.
Oh,
there's like Alton's here in Chippewa Falls,
yeah.
But nowadays, if that happened, it would just be a bougie, expensive deconstruction of a vanilla milkshake.
That's $14.
Yeah,
there is that.
I know.
Let's see.
This is National Day of Encouragement.
So Parker, go for it.
There you go.
There's your encouragement for the day.
It is, of course, National Police Woman Day.
It's International Standup Cancer Day.
And then the one I wanted to pick Greg's brain on is this is National Video Game Day.
And that's for any particular reason.
So it really should have been yesterday when we were talking about
the Atari 2600.
So now we get a call back to yesterday's conversation, bring you know, drag Greg into it, whether it wants to or not, whether what was your history on video game consoles,
disappointing pad, I must say, I, you know, to this day, I feel very left out of the game.
I was I did with Atari.
We had Coleco.
We had Nintendo and that was it.
I mean, I have a PS three at home.
We never play it.
I just don't have video games went from Super Mario Brothers where I could solve it in like an hour to now it's like games require 50 hours, 10 to 100 hours of play.
I'm like, I
who can do that?
No, it's
Pac-Man, it was so simple.
You could be dead within 60 seconds.
Pong!
That's a real video game there.

Are they just now, what are the Los Angeles Angels now?
yeah.
Okay, so I saw Los Angeles and my apologies to anyone listening yesterday.
or
early,
I was saying the Dodgers,
right?
Cause then in the instruction sheet, it just says Los Angeles.
Yeah.
And you go look at the schedule.
So there
we'll, uh, yeah, it is the Anaheim
angels.
I'll just change it to
angels, which by the way, I must say, if you ever have the chance, uh, the Anaheim, Anaheim angels stadium, which is just Anaheim stadium, which I love.
There's no sponsor name on there.
It's a beautiful stadium.
It's a great stadium to see baseball.
They got their Disney
money.
Oh, OK.
Wow.
Thanks.
If I ever do get them.
Let's see.
The milkshake conversation.
Again, catch.
That's the word till 9am.
Different keyword for matinee on air and then more keywords throughout the day.

Leaf talking about the milkshake day.
Frostop drive in Taylor's Falls still does car side delivery superb shake $9 for a large Roger says I used to make my own chocolate milkshakes when I was younger and fill a 32 ounce tumbler.
Jeez.
Okay.
Well, hey, seven egg cream.
No, I've not.
Some people rave about them and I'm delicious when they're made correctly.
Yeah, when they're made correctly, they're delicious.
Okay.
So this is the part of the program that's brand new, brand new.
This is where do you watch TMZ at all, Greg?
No,
I have a couple of friends who appear on there.
So I'll
watch it
when they're on there.
And I'll, you know, if I see clips on the internet, have you heard of it?
The internet?
Yeah.
Well, the
the show is completely mindless celebrity news and entertainment.
And part of the reason I like to watch it is it is somewhat reminiscent of our old TV newsroom, in that I mean, everybody was kicking stories around and having fun kind of making fun of each other along the way.
And you know, it's nice, they were pitching these stories to Harvey Levin,
who would
stand up on his soapbox there with his, you know, his little drink cup, and then determine if the stories were good or bad, we're going to get pitched or not.
So I guess I'm going to play the role of Harvey here, and young Mr. Olson is going to bring to us various entertainment stories, and we're going to determine if they become our entertainment story of the day.
Can we get this, but
I don't have that.
I'll pull
that.
Okay.
So in the area of entertainment and celebrity news, Mr. Olson, what do you want to put out there first as a potential best entertainment story of the day?
saga, there's
I was not, Mr. Olson.
Tell me more.
Yes, yes,
check out I mean, you know, if you're kind of on splitsville.
Oh, why wouldn't you have a fling with the boss,
right?
But the CEO
Yes.
And
filing.
We're going our separate ways.
The soon to be ex-husband was not nearly as bothered as the soon to be ex-wife because the soon to be ex-wife did not know that she was a soon to be ex-wife until a much more recent event happened in front of millions of people.
All right.
There's our Coldplay Kiss Cam development.
You got one more for us?
Mayweather.
Floyd
No,
their age.
Swing their walkers at each other.
will you
And
Will it be someone
Oh, no, no, no.
That wouldn't be happening at all.
My arm, my arm.
I think it's broken.
I don't think I can do this.
I don't know.
Let me let me think about it here.
Greg, if you had to pick one of those stories, is your story of the day?
Would you would you pick one of those?
I would pick.
Totally.
I would pick the letter Floyd Mayweather versus versus Mike Tyson.
I would just ask, would their gloves be covered in the paperwork that held their assault charges?
there.
That's why we bring Greg Buck in from
the top
rope.
All right.
Thank you very much, Mr. Buck.
One more entertainment note, Greg.
Greg Garth Brooks has added a
Yeah, your brother.
Garth Brooks is at a second Milwaukee show at the American Family Amphitheater on the Summerfest grounds.
The June 17 show will now be preceded by June 16 show.
Basically now a two night warm up party for Summerfest.
That'll kick off June 18 and run for three weekends.
I think
I'm

Which which one?
Don't care.
Either

That's right.
That's how it works.
Thank you, Mr. Bach.
Have a wonderful weekend.
