Good afternoon, everybody.
Todd Albaugh along Mr. Aaron Zommer is our producer and engineer on the board.
It's six minutes past the hour of three o'clock.
Welcome into hour number two of the big broadcast here on a Thursday, September 18th, 2025.
It is a great day to be a Wisconsinite coming to you from the beautiful world headquarters of Civic Media in downtown Madison at the intersection of state.

Prior to that, our own Phil Knee from WRCO to BRC and Richland Center, if weather holds, are gonna have a Richland Center, one of the last drive-in movie theaters.
Have you ever been to a drive-in summer?
Oh, very good.
Once, maybe twice.
Either way, there's one in Chilton, if it's still operational, which I think it is.
It was a lot of fun.
It was really weird.
I'm big on sound it really weird because I'm big on sound in movies and hearing it through the car stereo I was like it's the experience interesting now I
think I think of the all-staff meeting this week yeah Phil made a joke about say hey you know if you want bring your bring your partner your sweetheart and you could you could park in the back row and it was kind of crickets and I think that's because not many people on our staff have ever been to an outdoor theater
Oh, I got
very big meeting indeed.
So, Phil Knee here is tomorrow talking about this great come out to the movie theater.
He's going to do a live edition of those were the days is great Saturday program from six until midnight.
His oldest call in show from Michelin Center.
He's going to be talking about that tomorrow on the show.
Bill McCashen and their old friend Peter Rapine from Epom's world with another hilarious edition, at least it better be.
No, it will be of the week in review.
I'll look at the wild and wacky of real life human behavior.
So that's the show tomorrow.
A couple of things, business, some business.
Now, here's the deal for those watching on the stream I set up before.
I have my brand new October baseball Milwaukee Brewer shirt on today was down there last night.
What a game.
Brewer's got a big win over Los Angeles Angels last night down there.
And a lot of people are saying, how the heck?
I mean, I'm never going to be able to get tickets.
A lot of these games are sold out now, but I really want to catch the brewer fever, even late in this, in the season.
We got you covered.
Tune in tomorrow, starting with Pat Krightlow at six a.m.
Then you got Jane McNair and Greg Bach, Matt Nair Nair.
Then you got good old Tommy Hartman.
And then you've got us.
And then you've got Maggie Dawn.
And then you got Pete Schwabba on each of those shows tomorrow.
We're all gonna give you a magic word and you download the Civic Media app and in each of those shows will give you a magic word you text that word to the Civic Media app during said show and at the end of tomorrow the computer will randomly draw from the correct entries and somebody is going to win four club level seats to a brewers regular season game
Yet this season to go down there.
There's beautiful seats club level Own bathrooms for that part of it own concession stand.
It's it spoils you Let me
but you deserve to be spoiled out there in radio land and screaming land and so tune in tomorrow Friday all day on civic media It's our final one Final free ticket Friday for the season.
You should be a winner like Chris and some prairie Kimberley in wabatosa
Terry from Cross Plains, Jim and Brookfield, Penny from Plainfield.
That's my favorite winner so far.
Or Kevin and Madison, all of one tickets you can do tomorrow on Free Ticket Friday, so dial in for that.
And you know, you're going to want to have the app anyway.
Yes, that's exactly right.
That's where I was going.
So it's time to announce, and we have to be very careful about this.
And speaking of meetings, we're all called another meeting this morning, actually this afternoon before we came on.
We are able to tell you now that starting on Monday on the same shows that we talked about before for the Brewer's Ticket giveaway tomorrow, starting on Monday, it's our big fall green and gold text to win contest.
Did I do that right?
It is a multi-state contest, and it took me back to my college days while I was experimenting, and I was a part of a couple of multi-state contests, and I said, no, that's not for me.
And I just moved on.
But yes, it is a multi-state contest now that we have stations in Minnesota.
So we have to be very, very careful that the lawyers work overtime on these things.
because they watch us, because we're only allowed to use certain words due to licensing agreements, contracts, and the like, and attorneys.
So when I say green and gold, Zomers, do we have some music to back that up?
When you hear this music on our show next week, there you go.
You'll hear that on this program starting on Monday for the next two weeks.
And when you hear this,
It's time for the green and gold text-to-win giveaway.
That now, Monday.
It is a multi-state contest.
I love the
song.
Green and gold.
Multi-state contest Monday.
Starting Monday across the Civic Media radio.
And get this.
It's not just...
the Walla Palooza grand prize of club level seats for a NFL football game.
I can't say that.
You can say Green Bay.
Strike one.
But I don't think it counts because the contest
until it hasn't started.
I got myself a mulligan.
That was my first mulligan on this contest.
So we're going to give away tickets to the green and gold versus the purple and gold at a place in Green Bay.
We can say that.
And so you can win tickets to that event.
But every day, here's the cool thing.
Every day, we're going to win or going to give away $200 of cold hard cash or some.
meeting.
So it's $200 cash and beautiful gold jewelry.
And we're going to have Bob Barker's old Barker beauty come in here and we're going to show you the gold live models in the studio.
So tune in for that.
That'll be a lot of fun as well.
I'm excited.
And here's the thing.
And I can't tell you that I have definite proof on this, but here's our motto for the next two weeks.
More text-to-win people win on the Todd Allball show than any other civic media program.
This statement has
by the Food and Drug Administration.
That's what ABC said.
More Americans get their news than any other news source.
So I'm gonna say it.
More text-to-win people win on the Todd Allball show than any other civic media program.
So make sure you tune in here starting on Monday if you want tickets to a football game in the city of Green Bay.
involving the green and gold and the purple and gold.
Is that okay?
Yeah.
Yes.
And by the way, it's a multi-state contest.
Thank you for bringing that up.
You can enter on all these different shows.
It's not just one show.
So how about that?
send you a, uh, I guess a confirmation text and then you could subscribe to, I don't know, something.
And if you do that, you get an extra entry.
So that's the, so whatever we send you, just say yes.
Look, it's gonna be fun.
It's gonna be a lot of fun and your chances of winning are higher between two and four Tune in on Monday between two and four for the green and gold Text-to-win contest on Monday.

Hmm.
No, no fat on that.
But yeah, a ribeye or a lower cut steak.

Mike, out in beautiful spring green, listening on WRCE in Richland Center.
Mike, fried chicken or steak, what's worse?
It's a conundrum for me because chicken is easier to digest, but fried means it's in oil.
Steak.
Overall, I think tastes better.
So I think my official answer is I don't know Right
down the
middle Can I answer that way?
Sure.
Hey, it's a free country.

Jesse fried chicken or steak.
What's worse?
Well,
it's such a there's so many like socioeconomic aspects to this and philosophical aspects.
I think the discussion right itself is the winner, right?
I mean usually what's worse that you guys posit forward to listeners is like two bad things but here it's really more about like what's better right right that's
a good
point but it you know it's like a just like the proverbial left-wing circular firing squad I'm not gonna participate in it in that sense I'm gonna say that
Both are great, and I'm gonna show solidarity.
If I feel like fried chicken, I'm gonna show solidarity with my steak-eaters.
If I feel like steak, I'm gonna show solidarity with my fried chicken-eaters.

Our old friend, Gordy Kopke, down at Kopke's greenhouse, a fine sponsor of this network.
We appreciate that.
Get on down to Kopke's in the town of Dunn, just outside of Oregon here in Dane County.
I was down there, picked up some beautiful mum, a couple of mums and some other plans down there at Kopke's for the fall.
Get there before it's too late.
Gordy Kopke says, where's his text?
No, I'll find it here.
Gordy, Gordy says on.
No doubt chicken is worse.
I'd rather go eat at a steakhouse than a chicken house.
Well, there I'll have the surf and turf, not the surf and chicken.
That's a great point, Gordy.
Nothing better than a filet and some shrimp or some lobster.
We'll read a few more of these.
We come back and also from be aware of.
Internet ads that could cause havoc on your Android device.
Well, it's played out for this.
Farm News is next.
This is the All Balls Show on the Pacific Media Radio Network.
Pursuing truth wherever it may lead and having fun doing it.
Welcome back to the All Balls Show on the Pacific Media Radio Network.
Came in semi-owned name today.
35 minutes now, past three o'clock.
Thursday, September 18th, 2025, Zobber's on the board, glad to have you along with us.
Gonna finish up today's edition of What's Worst?
More calls and texts than I thought today.
like food.
Well, that happened.
I think, well, is this gonna go anywhere?
And then it does.
And then sometimes I think, oh, people are gonna wanna weigh in about this and his crickets.
So you never, that's the beauty of this bit, this segment, is you never know where it's gonna go.
Today's category, by the way, we're gonna talk in a minute.
This is real Google just took down 224 malicious apps with 38 million installs and massive Slop ads fraud campaign Slop ads I never heard of that until this story came on.
I'm gonna talk to you about that with you about that in a minute But first of all finishing up today's category of what's worse fried chicken or steak off the text line Tom in West Alice on a UK says
I've know this is about earlier.
We talked about there's a new signal for listeners in the Milwaukee area, particularly the downtown Milwaukee area because there are certain times we get in a building or whatever.
We need to show it UW Milwaukee and it gets a little fuzzy.
Well, here now we've corrected that at Civic Media and there's a brand new signal.
You can get W. A. U. K. and Civic Media over the air.
It's 100.3 FM on your dial 100.3 FM on your dial in Milwaukee, but Tom in West Alice says I've never heard it announced But WA UK is also on a app called radio garden is a worldwide app You can listen to the thousands of stations by scrolling over a map of the world and stopping on a dot.
How about that?
That's pretty cool.
radio garden is a website as well
Wow, very nice.
Thank you.
Appreciate the info there, Tom.
Len in Madison says, what's worse, steak or fried chicken seems more like a personal preference question.
However, steak is worse in terms of purchase cost, overall environmental impact and probable health reasons.
All right.
Thank you very much, Len.
Julie in beautiful Warsaw on WXCO Bull Falls Radio, home of Chad Holmes.
of our great, great announcers and people here at Civic Media.
And Julie says, steak is worse for the environment.
Really?
Do you think?
I guess cows.
I ain't stopping eating steak.
things that cause bigger problems than steak, in my opinion, like coal.
or other things like that.
Anyway, this is an environmental segment.
Matt in Middleton says, this is a tough one.
Did we do that?
All right.
All ready.
It says it's a tough one, as I like both have done right.
I will say fried chicken is worse.
It's bad for us and delicious.
I'll even eat the terrible grocery store chicken and regret it every time.
Now here, when I buy chicken, I try to spend a couple of extra bucks and buy either the
the organic or the non-antibiotic chicken.
Yeah.
Well, you gotta be careful when you're eating it, because if you swallow wrong, then you'll choke on your chicken, and that's
want to do that.
Absolutely not.
John in Edgerton on WMDX says chicken is worse.
I lost 60 pounds after surgery and my surgeon recommended eating chicken for protein to put the weight back on.
I have nightmares about that bird after the last two and a half years.
Well,
John,
glad you're feeling better.
Glad you're feeling better.
I was in Gordy's Megan, some prairie says fried chicken is worse.
I've never had a horrible steak, but I have had a disappointing piece of fried chicken.
Well.
That brings me to my lovely intelligent sister Heather listening on WCFW the tap up at Eau Claire says, you know my answer.
My stupid luck is to always get the worst steak at the table.
I have had good steak twice in my life.
One of them was in Milwaukee with you.
It was delicious, but I never order steak if I can avoid it.
And just to clarify.
Steak is worse now this I feel I feel terrible Because I was I like both but I love a good filet.
I love a good steak.
It was done.
Well and Trig the Olsen our friend and friend of the show He introduced me to a place been around Milwaukee forever called the five o'clock steak house in Milwaukee old old place That's fantastic.
He took it took us there.
He and Rick Wilson
when they were in town for the Republican national, or no, they were here when the Republican presidential debate at FISERVE in one of the 2023.
And then when my sister and brother-in-law were kind enough to drive all the way from Eau Claire down to Milwaukee last year for the RNC to be our on-site producers for nothing, by the way.
But I said, we gotta do something for him.
So I took him out to the five o'clock steakhouse in Milwaukee and my sister's like, I said, I'll guarantee you,
You're gonna get a great steak and she did and so
only time she has terrible luck of getting your table order steak So no, how about you zombers?
What's worse?
It's a bit of a tough one Because you know we've had some comments also from Casper our engineer and Parker producer about how what do they say so Casper says eating
Eating beer, he corrects beef, not beer.
Eating beef causes more greenhouse gases than all the vehicles we drive.
Not eating beef is one of the greatest things you can do for the environment.
And Parker, one of our producers says, beef is really bad for the environment.
The Green Brothers have proposed beef days, special days you can eat beef to limit how much we eat.
And yeah, the greenhouse gas thing really is a serious deal.
But also steak is expensive.
So I like it more than fried chicken.
But because I so rarely get to eat it, I would more be okay with not having it.
I don't know.
I'm going to say steak is worse, even though I think I like it more.
I like both.
I like a good piece.
When it was back in the 70s, when broasted chicken, broasted chicken was the thing.
And they had to put them in Hub City.
There was a place, a little town outside of Richland Center, those listeners, an RTO, Myers supper club in Hub City, broasted chicken.
They put it like in a big.
pressure cooker, and they radiate it, and I don't know what they did.
It was delicious.
It was broasted chicken, and that's always good, and a good chicken breast is great.
Fried chicken is good, but for me, pound for pound, you can't beat a good steak, a good filet.
I don't want to say I don't care, but I'm a big I'm a big fan of Wisconsin beef producers You know how they use I'm not sure if they use it anymore, but the old tagline was beef It's was for dinner and the way they came up with that was they hired an ad agency here in town years ago and they could come up with anything they could come up with anything and so the ad guy came home one night and he said you know
What, you know, what do we have in tonight?
And she said, uh, we're having beef.
And he's like, we've had that like three nights.
We can't, we had something else.
And she said, Bill, it's what's for dinner.
And he goes, huh?
And so they made it beef.
It's what's for dinner.
Where's the beef?
That's something else.
That's a Wendy's.
But, uh, no, my grandparent after they retired from the farming, dairy farming.
They got into beef and we were out with Joe Thomas at at the Six Springs farm and I think the important thing the difference is you're looking at how a guy like Joe Thomas at Six Springs farm does it.
It's all pasture-raised.
It's it's it's you know, they're
said it's like a it's like a beef spot Yeah, and and the enormous amount of acreage and you know
There's there's I guess if you want to go.
This is a real thing, by the way, folks, you know, the whole cow fart thing, you know, the beef.
But I look, I've been around a lot of humans that put out a lot of stuff, too.
It's true.
That's true.
But I'm going to say all all chicken fried chicken is worse.
I like me.
Good steak.
And I'm not ashamed of anybody either.
I'll probably say that on this show.
Fair enough.
All right.
So that's that rounds up, uh, well, another edition of what's worse tomorrow.
All right.
I have long been a user of the old iPhone.
I'm a big Apple guy and that's not a paid endorsement or anything else.
It's just a matter of fact.
And part of the reason I am is because ultimately you get less spam on an Apple device than on an Android device.
And here now from Tom's guide.com.
Great publication.
They do a lot of reviews.
And what I like about it is like they review electronic product They don't take like all the endorsement money, but if someone does send them a product they upfront say look these people sent it to us full disclosure Here's our honest opinion.
So headline Google just took down 224 malicious apps with 38 million installs in massive slop ads fraud campaign
How to stay safe.
This is scary.
It says bad apps can be hiding in the place you least expect.
And that's exactly what happened with 224 malicious apps that were recently removed from the Google Play Store following the discovery of a massive ad fraud campaign as reported by bleeping computer.
I didn't know that was a thing, but I love everything about it as reported by bleeping computer.
The campaign itself was discovered by humans Is it humans?
Satori threat intelligence team which revealed in a new report that these apps had over 38 million downloads in total However, it was the advanced tricks and obfuscation techniques Why I said that one right they used to bypass Google's defense that really stood out unlike previous ad fraud campaigns
This one spanned across the globe with users of the best Android phones downloading them from 228 countries, though they generated the most ad impressions in the U.S.
38 percent, India had 10, Brazil 7 percent.
Humans security researchers have dubbed the campaign, quote unquote, slop ads, slop ads as the malicious apps used in it.
had a mass product look and feel similar to online content created by, drumroll please, artificial intelligence image generators, and other AI tools.
Color
shocked.
And it goes on, it goes on from there about this ad, I encourage it, tomsguide.com.
description.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
I'll read you just a couple more sentences here.
In order to avoid being detected by Google's app review process and Android's built-in security software, the scammers behind this new ad fraud campaign went to great lengths.
For instance, if an Android user installed one of these so-called slop ad apps directly through the Play Store,
of their own accord, the app would act as it normally would once installed.
However, if they stumbled upon one of these apps after clicking through from the scammer's various ad campaigns, the app would become malicious after installation.
I just find this enormously confusing.
I heard Jane and Greg talk a little bit about this on their show a day or two ago on McNair on air.
It wasn't the exact same thing I don't think.
But it's just a good reminder that before you click on something and download it to your device, you know, just double think about that.
Because again, I'm not here to promote all Apple products.
There's a lot of great Android products out there as well.
But it is one of the things I like about my Apple device better.
It seems as though they have better security.
Agree or disagree?

Oh, by the way that after Maggie we are after Brittany and we got Clemens with sports and then we got Maggie Dawn with another great edition of the Maggie Dawn show from four till six six until eight a great friend Pete Schwabba and Nightlight from six until eight so they got native roots radio and Rick Smith across America So it'll be fantastic.
Authority, I like that.
I like to ask Mike if he likes that.
That'll be the key.
Does Clements like being called a sports authority?
Because he is.
certainly not inaccurate.
Not inaccurate at all.
So that'll be a great show tonight.
Looking forward to listening in myself to that.

Let's hear from Pat Murphy after manager Pat Murphy, the Brewers.
Clemens got this audio for us after the game.
Murphy talking about pitcher Brandon Woodruff.
I trust him infantically.
What this guy has been through on the mound and the way he operates, he knows what he's doing.
And it's underrated for this team this year, what he's done.
What is our record since Woody started with us?
That's something else because what he's done for the pitching staff and and I'll tell you the pitching coaches have done a great job with him Pat Murphy
manager of the Milwaukee Brewers and speaking of Brandon Woodruff through a great game last night was walking off the mound just like I mean he wasn't taking any prisoners Here is Woody after the game last night at Amfam.
acclimated you know it's been it's been roughly 10 days or whatever it was and yeah it was huge for me to get back out there and obviously first inning was a little bit a little bit lower than what I'm used to but that's okay my body got going there in the second and then everything kind of kind of back to normal.
Brandon Woodworth last night after the game we have time for the perks comments here This is a Blake Perkins got five RBI last night for the crew.
I mean definitely like conference boost You know being able to come through for the guys that's always always big But yeah, definitely tough few weeks.
I feel like the last couple days have been good like just kind of reset mentally and Yeah, I mean all these guys
support me every day and it's good to have some results like go my way.
So feels great.
Blake Perkins after last night's game, five RBI for the crew last night, the magic number to win the National League Central Division down to six games to get a postseason buy.
It's three wins or a combination of losses to other teams to get the number one seed in the National League playoffs.
They're in contention right now with the Phillies.
I think the crew still has a two game lead on Philadelphia.
So the magic number there is eight as well as the overall number one seed being eight as well.
But the important one, magic number six to a combination of Brewers wins or Cubs losses to win the National League Central outright.
So exciting times, Zomers, to follow the Milwaukee Brewers and be a fan.
Never too late to.
Jump on the bandwagon
Absolutely, and as we've said before I just really love hearing the interviews with players and their attitudes this season a lot of the time I honestly kind of Sometimes I don't find sports interviews that interesting because sometimes it can boil down to how was the game?
Yeah, it was good, but I really thought yeah, but Mike Clements knows how to ask good questions, and that's not how these are
because Mike Clemens is, as Pete Schwabba said, a sports authority.
Indeed, he is.
Great job.
Appreciate that, Mike.
Great work as always bringing us those cuts and clips.
He'll continue to follow the crew tonight again.
They get underway against Anaheim.
I keep saying Anaheim.
That's what they used to be called.
Now they're saying Los Angeles Angels 605, the pregame show across many of these stations just after 635, the first pitch from beautiful AM Fam.
field.
