U.S. Senator Ron Johnson said Friday that he hopes to be able to respect the outcome of

I sure hope so, young.
Fortunately, you're here in state of Wisconsin that we have a governor who vetoed the types
of bills that would restore confidence in our election system.

Johnson, who hails from Northeast Wisconsin, appeared on the Earl Ingram show Friday morning.
Listen to the full interview on the Civic Media website, app, social platforms, or podcast

Taking a tour from Green Bay to Appleton to Oshkosh and Indian in Fondalak, U.S. Secretary

If you look at the numbers and you look at just kind of where in the country it's going
to come down to, no pressure.
But a couple votes for precinct in the Fox Valley might determine the trajectory of Western
civilizations.
Buttigieg was in the Fox Valley campaigning for Democrats in a personal capacity and
not as transportation secretary.

Back up quarterback Malik Willis played most of the second half.
After Jordan Love left with a groin injury, Matt LaFlora asked if he knew how severe was
Love's injury.
I do not know idea, but obviously high level of concern anytime a guy is in there and
he did it early in that first drive and I think everybody could see him struggling.
I just got to a point where we'd feel like and he didn't feel like he could protect
himself.
Up next, the Packers host the lines who beat the Titans 52-14 in Detroit.
College footballer Wisconsin Badgers Turner attention to playing the Isle Hawkeyes Saturday
night Wisconsin now 5-3 after losing to undefeated Penn State 28-13 NBA The Bucks
and Boston tonight after losing to the Brooklyn Nets 1-15-102, Yana says they simply
need to play better.
I have to be better.

I keep on thinking of the ball.
You will be in aggressive, found ways to play faster.
I think we're playing good too stagnant.
That's the Bucks Yana Santedicupo with sports on Mike Clemens.
On your entertainment beat, I'm Pete Schwabba, despite a prolific run that has spanned
decades.
Actor Liam Neeson says he is done with the action film genre, the 72-year-old actor and
star of the taken films among many others, says age is catching up with him.
But the fact that he has made so many action movies is remarkable, and even more remarkable
that they all have pretty much the same plot in which he seeks revenge on those who threaten
or kill his family members.
The genius is that he gets his revenge from film to film by changing locations.
Three of cities, countries, cars, trains, planes, and even a snowplow.
If you're looking for a film that is some action but is a little more plausible, check
out in the land of saints and sinners from 2023.
Not a bad watch.
Speaking of old white guys, season two of the old man wrapped with a cliffhanger last
week, and Jeff Bridges is already hitting at a season three.

It seems like it's taken forever, but there might be a speed three.
In a recent chat with the Hollywood Reporter, 20th Century Studios Steve Asbel gave the
movie going public hope when it comes to more sequels destined for the big screen in the
near future.
Asbel says he is open to speed three if it's a great idea, but that the studio will definitely
pursue another alien and says there will be a new predator film in theaters in 2025 as
well.
Asbel also added, there would be most likely another alien versus predator.
Thanks, but not really necessary, Steve.
Looking for something new to watch as the Halloween season winds down?
Check out Bad Monkey on Apple TV.
It took me a while to warm up to it, but it is a good show and keeps you guessing.
Vince Vaughn basically plays himself, but this time he's named Andrew Yancey, a disgraced
detective in Miami trying to solve a case in which a severed arm is found with the middle
finger of the hand extended, a funny gimmick, but the story unfolds nicely and the characters
are interesting.
Give it a watch.
