is in Florida, but he's from the 9-2-0.
He says, I love all Girl Scout cookies, but my favorite still is the Thin Mints, a true American treasure that is loved by all.
Very well said, Steve.
Your son and I had an argument, not an argument Conrad, I would say, but we just both,
accept that they're
Uh, exactly.
Uh, Bridget from the 818 says, Thin Mints, my favorite for 50 years.
Wow.
That's a lot of cookies.
Even a Thin Mint a year.
50 Thin Mints.
Yeah.
Dosey Dozer.
Is that what you like?
Oh my God, yes.
Folks, that is the voice of Rob Brackenridge, who joins me in the studio.
The hilariously funny, the laughs keep coming.
I just, I actually come in, you know, I show you that respect.
Listen, I love Mary.
but you know what, she could show a little more effort and drive over from, you said she lives on the border, well, she lives on the border because she said she uses both dumps.
She doesn't
get rid
of mattresses.
Yeah,
they can go back and forth.
She lives on the drinking side.
If I had known you
guys were friends, I would have.
Could you text me before you said, is Mary coming in?
Yeah.
And I said, no, she's over the stream.
And I didn't know if that meant, oh, I should avoid the studio.
If Mary's there, because I didn't know if you guys were gonna throw it down.
Oh, you never know with comedians, you
know?
Yeah.
No.
She used to open for me in the old days, and when she would be done, I'd come on and go, so you guys, let's have a hit for Mary.
And I'd do my first couple of jokes like that, and I'd go, I don't really talk like that.
And she never minded, you know?
Oh, she's great.
Mary's, that was her second time being on the show, and she's just absolutely lovely to have on the show.
Tyler from Wisconsin Rapids says, Soylent Green is the new Medicareer.
That's relating to our conversation with Mary, who is not happy they're cutting Medicare.
Sherry from HoraCon says, good evening, Pete and Conrad.
I danced.
Is she referring to when I asked you if you danced today?
Okay.
Sure, you have to dance.
That's fantastic.
And I think we're all caught up.
Rob Brackenridge is one of my favorite guests, folks.
He comes into the studio, he drives.
How was traffic, Rob?
Did you get caught behind the two people driving in front of you, taking up both lanes?
You mean coming in from Appleton?
Yeah.
Well, I was watching the moon the whole time.
I don't know if you've seen the moon out there.
No, I haven't.
It's
amazing.
It's a red
moon.
Oh, wow.
It's huge, and there's a...
a complete lunar eclipse tonight.
Oh, no way.
Yeah.
If you just walk out of the studio and go down onto the corner there, you'll see it.
It's amazing.
You just want to host the show, don't you?
People out
there.
People out there.
I almost got him out of Conrad.
I almost got him.
That was our little thing,
weird.
We
were working.
It's night light with Conrad and Rob, moving forward, back in.
I left my phone in there.
I can't get away with the studio.
I'll have to check that out.
I got here at like one o'clock today, because I was coming from Madison, so I have no idea.
But that red moon is fantastic.
Blood moon, they call it.
Blood moon, yeah.
And it's
just starting to eclipse, so it's just a little corner.
And by 2.30, complete lunar
eclipse.
Oh, no kidding.
I might still be here.
Are you a night owl?
No.
No.
I go to bed at 10.
I get up at about 6.
No kidding.
I'm one of those weird
guys.
Oh, that's great.
Even bet, like, when you were a younger guy, did you do that when you were doing stand-up?
Oh, no.
I used to stay up until, like, two or three and then sleep 14 hours, just like you did, probably, right?
I think
we all did that, right?
Back when I could sleep past eight o'clock, like, I still go to bed at two now because this show, I go home and I watch some shows, whatever.
I go to bed at one or two.
And then I'm still up.
I, like...
Maybe I can sleep till nine, but it's brutal.
I stopped doing it during the pandemic.
Oh, yep.
I just I liked watching the Sun come up during the pandemic for some reason because I well I had no shows at night, you know, right?
So my whole body clock turned and I just started going to bed at nine or ten and now I'm one of those old codgers.
My Medicare just kicked in on March 2nd.
So you guys were talking about it going away or something?
Well
It's been in the news a lot that the people are scared it's going away
I still don't want to believe it or social security.
Like the people have us, you know, oh, these freeloaders.
No, no, no.
Social security, we pay into that.
It's no different than insurance.
So stop with that.
I don't think anybody believes that, but Mary seemed kind of freaked out about it.
And
well,
we'll see what we'll have.
So everybody that's on it loves Medicare.
I love it.
I
love Medicare.
I love social security.
I'm on that too.
You know, I'm enjoying my old age.
Getting up early to count all
your social security money.
Matlock, you
know.
Murder, she wrote.
The old one, not the new one.
Yeah, right, right.
Do you have a, all right, what was your favorite girl's cookie?
You just said it.
Dosie Dose.
You
know, those are the circles with the little, they're like an oatmeal cookie kind of, but they're like a wreath, a Christmas wreath.
And they have a little.
Fudge,
I don't know that stripes on him
Conrad, you know,
right?
Did you still have your Girl Scout cookie list pulled up here the whole graphic over there?
Yeah chart with the
okay oatmeal gotcha I mean do I have it wrong
no no you it's it's the dosy does
the
I love them.
I like the name
You've never tried a dosido?
I probably, maybe I have.
You'll never go back to thin mints.
Once you try, once you go dosido, you don't go back.
Do you go,
do you go with your, if you have an oatmeal cookie, Rob, let me ask you this.
Do you go raisin or chocolate?
I go walnuts.
Walnuts, I like that.
One texture tonight said they do butterscotch chips.
Oh, I don't think you can go wrong with it.
No, yeah, I guess you can't go wrong with it.
I think with the chocolate chips and the in the butterscotch, it's too sweet.
I like the pure oat.
Because
I'm old.
I want the fiber.
But when you were in your 20s, you could mow down a few chocolate chip cookies with the best of them.
Oh my God, I just wanted the chocolate
chips.
I would buy a bag of chocolate chips.
You know what?
I'd just eat them like that.
Like they were peanuts or
something.
So let's talk, but I got a lot to get to with you, because you always have so much fun stuff going on.
We'll save the big event for after the news, but do you have a stand update
coming up in the next day?
Yep, I'm in Mole Lake tomorrow.
Oh, yeah, with Frank.
Frank, yeah.
It's, I guess, yeah, it's a casino.
I've never been there.
Have you?
I know.
You know, it's weird.
I did stand up full time, only for seven years.
When I moved to LA, it just was so far to travel everywhere to all the gigs I had on the East Coast or the Midwest.
So I just kind of stopped and I got lucky and sold some stuff.
So I thought
write and not to stand up.
So I was only a cop.
But I still feel like all my best friends are still comedians.
Yeah.
I'm hoping you join that club at some point.
Oh, well now we're good friends.
Well, we're like
gonna arms.
We hug we hugged
it today
first.
That's a big step.
That's a icebreaker.
It's a breakthrough Rob Brackenridge is here folks.
He's in the studio and when we come back he is gonna tell us about a really cool event that he is hosting that might involve an appearance in some capacity or another from a very famous Wisconsinite We'll talk about that after the news.
Good to have you here, buddy
It's always fun to be here.
This is Nightlight with Pete Schwabba on the Civic Media Radio
Network.
Conrad's mom, finally checking in tonight.
Paula says I have two favorite Girl Scout cookies, the Samoas and the Tagalongs.
I don't know why I thought Tagalongs were something else.
What is a Tagalong?
It's the peanut butter one.
Oh yeah, that's a good one.
Yeah, all the peanut butter ones are great.
And Jim from Kenosha says, it works good for removing stains.
I'm sure that
was
a reaction to something Mary Mac said, and I've already forgot what it was.
So I'm sorry about that, Jim.
But thank you.
As always, Jim's one of our best textures.
So I think green is in Medicare.
Conn, I know I forgot a couple of these because I went out of order.
So please don't let me forget a text.
Rob Brackenridge is here, ladies and gentlemen.
In the studio, as always, made the drive up from Appleton, braved the elements, the lunar eclipse.
There's no elements out there today.
No, it's not too bad, is it?
You have some, okay, so you're in Mole Lake tomorrow night, then you have another gig coming up.
Oh
yeah.
Let's talk about
this.
Yeah, this is, I do have, well, the stand up stuff I got is, I'm in Green Bay Distillery on the 29th, and Warsaw Timekeepers on the 28th.
Okay.
The thing I got next week is the big thing.
That's the 75th anniversary gala.
I haven't done it.
Have you ever done a gala?
Not to my knowledge.
Oh my god, a gala.
I've
actually dently done a gala,
but... I drank some gallo.
Is that counted?
No.
But it's the Attic Theater in Appleton, Wisconsin, which is where I actually started out.
Really?
Yeah.
It's been around for 75 years and it nurtures the, you know, the arts and everything in Appleton and we're having this huge gala.
It's at River Heath, Poplar Hall and River Heath on the, was it the 20th?
Yes, the 20th.
at 6.30 to 10 of this
month of March.
Yep.
Yeah.
Next week.
Okay.
Next Thursday.
So is this is the attic theater?
I have never lived in Appleton.
Is it like a
like, do they do Broadway-type shows there, community theater, stand-up,
music?
They do a little bit of everything.
They do musicals.
They'll do, you know, they'll do all kinds.
Just whatever, they'll pick a director and whatever the director chooses.
And they were at UW-Fox Valley for a while.
They take different theaters around town and stuff.
Nice.
And they're great.
They're just wonderful and they're getting more and more acclimations, you know.
Acclimations?
Accolades.
That's what I'm talking about.
I knew it was one of those words.
Look at some apps.
Some
apps.
But no, they're great.
And I started out there.
I was in Five Tales for Old King Cole.
Oh, nice.
I'm still using it in my resume.
How do I not to book this guy at Chuckles?
And you know, I was in there with Sarah Deffo.
That was my co-actor.
Sarah Deffo.
Yes, her brother was Billy Deffo.
Also known as Willem.
Oh my gosh.
There it
is.
I've got the chills.
That is cool.
Well, he's a huge star.
And he was Billy Defoe back then.
And I, you know, I'm Rob Brackenridge.
I think I'm going to change my name to Robert Brackenridge.
And maybe it'll work for me.
It worked for him.
You know, yeah, I wanted him to do a little video for the 75th Gala because that's where he started.
He started in the attic theater.
And he still remembers it.
He's talked about it in the articles and stuff.
Really?
And so I got ahold of his sister and she said that, you know, I'll get him to send a little video.
Oh, great.
How fun.
Yeah.
He lives in Rome now.
I don't know if you know that.
Willem Defoe lives in Rome?
Yes.
Billy Defoe.
Billy.
Billy.
No, don't call him Billy.
I wouldn't call him Billy.
He scares me.
I would be scared.
You know, I'm kidding.
He's an actor,
but he can play a really...
And he's the most prolific actor, I think, probably.
He's got 67 movies.
Yeah.
And he's only 69.
He's amazing.
Look, you know, he's one of those guys, Rob, to me, who is clunk proof.
He could make a clunker.
It's not going to affect him.
Yeah.
He still works.
And he's not like Tom Cruise.
He doesn't know.
But he's he's just so good at every movie to live and die in LA.
Loved him.
And there's a great bad guy, Rick Masters, a counterfeiter.
Very diabolical character and in the Florida project he plays a good guy and the owner of this or the manager of this Motel and he kind of looks after the kids and it's a very sweet movie but he was
great.
He's a great actor.
He's a chameleon.
He becomes the character.
Yeah, you know, he's not he can't be pigeonholed.
He's not I agree.
Yeah, he's a great guy.
And you know, I don't know if he's I don't know him personally but I know a lot of his friends because you know in Appleton
Everyone's oh, I remember I went to school with him for some reason he doesn't like Appleton because of some guy named Biggie Rat And there's some kind of a weird yeah, I've heard
that that he doesn't like Appleton or he's kind of just I don't know if it's been there done that you know I'm ready to move
on with my
life some people are like that
yeah Oh also he did a movie and when he was at East High School He did a movie about smoking pot and kind of and they didn't they did not like it they didn't they
they told him they don't want to, you know, that he shouldn't be doing that.
And that's when he started going, you know, well, I'm an artist.
And then he left.
I think he left before he was done graduating and he moved out to Milwaukee and then Madison.
And I don't know really the rest of it, but he became a New York, of course.
And now he's got he's got a $4 million house in New York and
a nice farm in Rome, Italy, with animals.
And he's got a beautiful wife who's a director, Italian director.
And they've been married.
He moved out there in 03.
But I don't know much about him.
Sounds like you know a little too much.
Well, when I was getting ahold of him, when I was trying to get ahold of him, I researched it.
So he's been, I guess, I don't know if he's still a US citizen, but.
He's also, he lives in Italy.
He's a great actor.
It would be really cool if you got that.
I think people would be thrilled.
That's where he's sending.
Does his
sister still act?
No.
Did she ever pursue anything along those
lines?
Well, he's got four brothers and three sisters.
Oh, wow.
So the parents are, I think, Catholic.
Yeah, sounds like it.
They didn't have a TV, I'm sure.
But yeah, they really put out a lot of day foes.
Day foes.
And one to foes.
That's how you say that.
One to foes.
One to foes.
Yeah.
But a whole bunch of daffos.
Yeah.
Sarah Daifo was the girl that was, you know, and the dad was a doctor here in town.
I think the mom was also a doctor,
too.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah, interesting family.
But I have heard that about him and I've heard he was pretty...
Progressive thinking when he was younger.
So
that's that reputation has kind of followed him around but really cool.
Have you seen the Florida project?
No, I've talked about it a lot on kind of I talked about the Florida project too much.
What year did that come out?
You like it borderline?
Okay, if you like it that much keep keep going.
It's his show
2017 once in a while.
I like to make him feel like he calls the shot Yeah, I love I love the film.
It's a 2017 movie
And just check it out, because he's really good at it.
That was right before he did Aquaman.
He does those too.
That's why he
probably has a $4
million.
And there's a voice in Dory, Dory 2, and Finding Dory.
And Dory's still here.
Dory's coming back?
Yeah.
Or Finding Nemo, he did.
And then Finding Nemo 2, and then Finding Dory.
OK.
So I don't know much about him.
And he
did what, Green Goblin?
Yeah, 2002 Spider-Man.
Very scary in that, too.
Last temptation of Christ.
He did Mississippi Burning.
He did Born on the Fourth of July.
That scene in Mississippi Burning between he and Gene Hackman, where they're fighting, and Hackman's bigger than him, and Defoda's this move where he gets Hackman
down, he pulls his
gun on him, and he's like, you don't have the guts.
I have the guts, and I have the
authority.
He's great.
That was 88.
Yeah.
That's when I was just starting stand-up comedy, you know, and he was with Hackman.
And holding his own would happen.
I mean,
he
was a much younger actor then.
So, all right, so Attic Theater, 75 years old, so it was opened in 1950.
Yes.
And they picked you to emcee
it.
That's a nice honor, Rob.
Well, I think it's wonderful, you know, the...
Carol Jagan is the woman that's organizing all this, and she knows me from way back, and she asked me if I would emcee it, how much I would charge, you know, and I'm like, no, I'm not charging anything.
We're trying to raise money, $50 a ticket.
But it's going to a really good cause, and I hope we can fill that up.
And maybe even Mr. Defoe might just tell people he's gonna be there.
I love that phrase.
So
where can people find out more information about the,
uh, just go to attic theater, uh, dot com.
And you'll, if you just type in attic theater, the 75th gala on the
Google,
the old guy, as they say, the Google, the kids call it,
the Google.
Um, all right, cool.
So that's March 20th, attic theater.
Go to attic theater.com or go to the Google.
Rob will be hosting a really fun way to celebrate culture and the arts in Appleton at a theater that
And
it's singing,
there's going to be comedy,
singing, everything.
Oh, nice.
I mean, it goes on for three and a half hours.
And the hors d'oeuvres, the thing is catered by a really great catering company.
And you can see all the information on the website.
That's so great.
So you've got Mole Lake, and you just mentioned two other places.
You've got Mole Lake, Green Bay.
You've got a Green Bay
Day coming up in
Wasa.
And where can people, do you have a website?
Yes, robbrekenrich.com.
Sometimes you ever ask someone their website and you go on there and they haven't updated like in eight years.
Yeah,
like can I still see you at the comedy club that's no longer there?
No, I try to update it and the guy that does my website I I still I'm not very good at the updating myself, you know, it's tedious, right?
So yeah, he's kind of slow doing it, but
okay, do you pay him?
I don't
Uh, yeah, it's like one of those friend things, so you can look at my website and see that it's not all that professional.
But no one goes to your website anymore, anyway.
They go to my TikTok.
Everyone goes to my... You're a
TikTok
god, dude.
I know!
How did you do that?
I don't know!
I mean, oh, because Mike Maryfield...
can edit those little reels like no one's business.
He does it for 800 pound gorilla as a professional.
Yeah, you told me that, I think.
Yeah.
So he edits all my reels for me for free.
Oh, look at you, man.
But this one looks like I paid millions of dollars for it.
So, all right, I have to ask you, I really like your post when you have your mom.
It's a very letter of an S kind of thing you do.
Your mom is very sweet.
She's a great sport.
You get her to do things.
What's the latest you've done with your mom that you could
help?
Just today, we were out there today.
I did a little video and I said, I'm going to be at the casino in Mole Lake.
You got to come out and mom's like,
yeah.
You know, she always gives like a little.
Thumbs up or something, but we go on walks every day.
You know, the stink of 94 just turned 94.
That's, you're getting into speaking of Hackman.
That's Hackman territory.
And she seems really healthy.
She is extremely healthy.
She's going to outlive me, I'm sure.
Wow, I hope not.
Someone else is going to have to take care of her.
Conrad?
Conrad.
Step in.
And it's Rob.
He'll be award for free.
What he's going to do is walk her.
Yeah, she's housebroken.
Walker.
She doesn't have not picky about what she eats.
What does he have to call her Mrs. Brackenridge?
No, Rossi.
Oh, that's a great name.
Oh, that's a great name.
She kept her maiden name.
She was actually a big feminist and she still is.
Okay.
She started the Now Movement in Appleton, National Organization Women.
Really?
Oh, wow.
She's trying to get the ERA passed, which I can't believe the Equal Rights Amendment has not been passed in our country yet, but it hasn't.
Women, you know, the Equal Rights.
Wait.
Really?
Yeah.
So when was this that she tried to do all this?
This was back in 70.
She got fired.
She was a professor at Lawrence and she got fired from Lawrence because my dad was a professor there too.
And they went through all the professors that had wives that were professors and they said, well.
You don't need to.
You got to be home cooking for your family.
Oh my gosh.
So they cut and all the women that got fired got together and they started the now movement.
And mom is still trying to, she's trying to get women ordained as priests in the Catholic faith
now.
Our moms sound very similar.
My mom is like full of just, she's, you know, very activist mindset and same thing with the church.
you know, she's a lifelong Catholic and she has issues, but she's like, they're not chasing me away, that kind of thing.
And she's run political campaigns and that's really cool.
But your mom is 94.
That's very impressive, Rob.
And she's still going strong.
There's
no sign
of slowing down.
You and Mike Mercury are mutual friends.
I think he likes you more than me.
Not important, as it pertains to this interview, but we'll discuss that up here.
You guys, one of the Bahamas recently, two comics in the
Bahamas, what was that like?
Well, they finally let me bring my own opening act, and I thought of him right away, because he's great.
And he does corporate gigs all the time.
And the Bahamas, it's all these rich people.
They have a yacht out there.
One lady stood up and goes, I can buy and sell you.
And stormed out.
She said that during the show?
Well, I did with that line, you know, this is the reason why it's not a good idea to drink on an empty head, you know.
So she got mad and stormed out.
But she goes, good!
My husband makes more money than you do.
What does that have to do with why we're
here tonight?
I said,
good
heckle.
Good
comeback.
Rob Brackenridge is here, folks.
He's going to help me close this thing down.
We're going to do a very short break.
You can see Rob.
He's coming to Green Bay.
He's in Mole Lake tomorrow, if you happen to be over that way.
And he's got a WASA day coming up, too.
Check out Rob Brackenridge, his website, or TikTok.
Yep, TikTok, YouTube.
Instagram, Facebook, I'm on all of them.
And you'll see Rob's mom, who is really cool and he's really good to her too.
So we'll talk about a lot of stuff coming back.
This is Pete Schwabba at Nightlight on the Civic Media Radio Network.
Did
we get all the texts?
You're sure.
Okay.
And we've got nightlight.
There's going to be a nightlight beer, Rob.
If you get down to Madison Flick's brew house, it's called, it's going to be called Hazed on Radio in association with Nightlight with Peach Wamba.
So it's a nightlight inspired beer.
Yeah.
Nice.
And the probably the tiny.
But still, your name is on a
beer can.
That didn't you dream of that when you were just starting in stand-up?
I'd like to be in this long enough so I could have my name on a beer can.
Yeah, it happened without not doing stand-up, which is weird.
But Flix Brewhouse, great place to watch a movie and got tons of different beers, but that'll be fun.
And do you work
in Madison?
No,
I used to.
I used
to love it.
That was a great
comment.
But
as soon as...
the Gus, the guy that owned it, as soon as he stopped booking it and his daughter started, then she didn't book any old guys anymore.
Oh, really?
It's all the young,
yeah.
So all the makeover.
Yeah, all of us old guys.
Grumbling away.
Maybe I'll do an open mic and see what school these young kids go down there and get them.
So
All right, so let's talk, are you watching anything?
Do you have any shows that you've been binging your movies
you've
seen?
I just watched, gosh, I can't, last night I watched this really great movie, Tsunami, I think it's called, but it's a Norwegian movie, and they dubbed it really well.
And it's kind of corny though, because everyone lives in the end, but you know, a nice Hollywood ending, because
all
the characters that you see, oh, I just, I gave it away.
But it's a really beautiful scenery.
and stuff like that.
I
like watching foreign movies because they don't get enough air time.
And you kind of don't know what to expect.
You watch a formulaic thing.
You're like, I'm enjoying this, but I kind of know where it's going or how it's going to wrap up.
What is this world series of comedy at the Appleton Skyline Comedy Club?
You were
just there recently, right?
Yeah.
I live a block away from her.
about a mile away from the skyline.
Okay,
they call they I'm their utility guy whenever
it
doesn't show
up.
I'm right
there.
But I don't know they they do these white claw world series of comedy or something like that or maybe the but they'll have these ones and they'll bring out local guys and some there's some really good local guys
coming
up because they have a open mic on Wednesdays at the skyline.
So
people listening if you if you want to try out stand-up comedy you get five minutes you go in there and you go on their website you know and then you can put your your name in for the next month so they
okay I mean this wait in line the open mic
is is like you have to plan it in advance pretty cool not like when we are starting now where you just show up and put your name on the list
Remember those
days?
I do.
It was so horrible.
And you know, when I started in Chicago, I had to take the L down to Zany's or wherever we're out to the comedy cottage, and it was just a big production.
Sometimes you didn't get up.
No, you
weren't assured of it set.
And then if you did go up, sometimes it would be one o'clock in the morning, and there's three people left.
Yeah.
And you're nervous.
But that was the way to do it.
Who makes you laugh?
Now.
Well, Brian Regan is my favorite.
I mean,
that's hands down my favorite.
Oh, you told that great story last time you were here.
Do
laugh at Mike Mercury.
I do
and
that's why I brought him with me because I wanted to work with someone because you can there's certain comedians that you can watch over and over again and still laugh at their stuff absolutely and Mike Maryfield is one of those guys who said he wants
to do this yeah I just was here with him today
oh
and he's I'd love to have Mike on I sent him a message I yeah I know he's a busy guy he's even know me so I wasn't like expecting to hear back but yeah he's got an open invitation would love to have him on the
show I told him that but
he's
one of those guys that when he's doing his set
I just I sit there and watch and I laugh.
Oh, nice.
Because
I know I know the punchline is coming up.
But the way he does it, it's just so natural and, you know, and it Mercury's the same way.
You just you watch it and you know, it's coming up, but he's just doing it.
That his character is the way he
is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So Mike's great.
Who give me.
All right.
You just gave me two.
Give me three more Wisconsin comedians that you really think are from Mary Mac.

Oh, she's from here, but she doesn't live here, right?
No, she lives in LA now.
Yeah, you mentioned her last time we were here, and I want to reach out to her, too.
Yeah, very few comedians still live here in LA.
I mean, that's lower Appleton.
The Minneapolis.
