Good morning, everyone.
For WRCO News, I'm Todd Coprenall.
It's 41 degrees right now in Richland Center, headed to a high of 54.
Another decent day, isn't it?
Today, of course, is Veterans Day.
And there are, of course, some Veterans Day assemblies in the area today in the Richland Center School District.
The Richland Center Primary School Assembly begins at 9 a.m.
and the Richland Center High School Veterans Day Assembly begins at 10 a.m.
with WRCO's Bo Hendricks serving as master of ceremonies.
We will broadcast the audio of that assembly today beginning at one o'clock.
Ithaca High School Veterans Day Assembly is at 1.30 today.
Guest speaker there is Richard Waslik.
And we did just get a phone call in the last two minutes from a local veteran.
Mr. Jim Wachtendog called and he said, hey, when you mentioned Veterans Day on the air, don't forget to honor the war dogs.
He said, my dog's name was Sam and it would make me feel great if you didn't forget that and I won't and I didn't.
So thank you to all of our veterans in the area, anyone who can hear my voice who served, including the war dogs.
Thank you, Mr. Wachtendog for that reminder.
The Richland Center FFA.
will be hosting their second annual After Harvest Breakfast Saturday morning from 7 until 10 o'clock at the Richland Center High School West Commons.
As the harvest season comes to an end, the event will celebrate the hard work of the agricultural community with a delicious breakfast and other activities.
Riley Banker is the Richland Center FFA President.
We've got lots of fun things.
We've got food.
We've got donations rolling in from different businesses.
I mean, our community is definitely helping us out big time with this one.
But we've got fun activities such as a petting zoo that we've got, face painting.
We've got a couple tractors that people can take pictures with.
So there's loads of activities that we're going to be doing with it.
A silent auction will also be held during the event.
Cost of a meal is $10 and tickets can be purchased at the door.
If you would like to donate to help out with the after-harvest breakfast, you can contact various members of the FFA.
Our amazing advisor, Jenna Fetting, so she's always available to text her email.
I'm pretty sure her email is available on our school website.
You can always text me.
I'm a great person that you can talk to.
A lot of our officer members, like if you see them out in the community, you ask them about that they'd be more than willing to help you get pointed in the right direction to donate.
Riley Banker hopes that everyone can come out to the event.
Our community is definitely big time supported us last year.
We had over 150 people that we served last year.
We're hoping to maybe double it this year.
So it's definitely something if you have free time on Saturday morning to come down, we'll serve you some good food and just have a good morning there.
I mean, it's a great opportunity to come out and be with the community.
Celebrate the hard work of our agricultural community and help support the Richland Center FFA at the After Harvest Breakfast Saturday morning from 7 until 10 o'clock at the RCHS West Commons.
A group of senior students at Highland High School began selling cupcakes when they were in fifth grade.
The proceeds of the sales have gone to the VETS Role Program and for a special wall at Highland High School that honors area veterans.
Known as the Cupcake Girls, this amazing group has raised over $30,000 for vets since they started under encouragement from Lisa Bowen, who is a teacher in the district.
Three of these young women will be guests on the double URCO morning show today, along with Mrs. Bowen and Highland District Administrator Josh Terrell.
The Verroqua City Council convened last night amidst heightened public interest and emotion following recent internal disagreements and conflict among city officials.
Numerous community members voiced strong disappointment regarding the discord, urging council members and city leaders to restore professionalism and focus on public service.
A major point of contention during the open session revolved around protocol and legal authority, specifically regarding which city officials hold the right to consult attorneys when personnel issues arise.
The mayor read from a prepared statement, but she was ultimately halted, following a call to order from a council member, after which the body chose to advance to the next agenda item before entering into a lengthy closed session.
Upon reconvening into open session, council members briefly reported that they had reached an understanding to move past recent conflicts and work together constructively.
Additional public comments followed with residents reiterating pleas for unity and expressing concern over how the ongoing friction might damage Verrocco's reputation in surrounding communities.
Attendees noted an unprecedented turnout.
marking one of the largest public gatherings in Verrocco's recent history.

Guests will have the opportunity to taste traditional dishes from various countries, ask questions and learn more about foreign exchange programs.
This family-friendly event is free of charge and open to everyone in the public.
Governor Tony Evers announced yesterday that Wisconsin has achieved a top three national ranking for connecting military veterans with successful long-term employment.
Through joint initiatives from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development and the Department of Veterans Affairs, the state continues to expand dedicated career tools, personalized support and transition services for its roughly 300,000 veterans.
The Federal Uniform National Threshold Entered Employment Rate, or UNTIR, benchmark confirms Wisconsin's sustained performance in veteran placement, marking four consecutive years in the top five nationwide.
Core initiatives driving these results include the Disabled Veteran Outreach Program, Local Veterans Employment Representatives, and the VETS Ready Employer Initiative, which honors employers building strong workplace support systems for veteran staff.
Beyond career placement, the State Administration maintains investments in veteran housing, healthcare access, and technical education.
Key budget measures support state veterans homes, transportation grants, military skill translation frameworks, and emergency career portal resources to help veterans and their families build thriving lives across Wisconsin communities.
In observance of Veterans Day and National Veterans and Military Families Appreciation Month, leadership from the U.S.
Department of Agriculture, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and the Small Business Administration gathered at USDA headquarters to reaffirm their shared commitment to supporting America's military veterans and their families.
During the event, USDA celebrated exceeding its ambitious 100 Hires in 100 Days initiative, designed to recruit veterans, transitioning service members and military spouses into mission-critical agriculture and security roles.
The effort has successfully brought more than 240 individuals into the department to date.
In addition to recruitment achievements, USDA announced a new partnership with the Department of War and the U.S.
Forest Service to establish the Gold Star Trails Program.
This joint initiative establishes a formal framework for designating select public forest trails in honor of fallen service members, offering Gold Star families and the public dedicated natural spaces for reflection.
and remembrance, the department also highlighted its expanded involvement in the Department of War's skill bridge program and the spouse works program, expanding career training and recruitment in specialized fields such as cybersecurity, data intelligence and contracting.
To guide these ongoing initiatives, Richard Lopez, an Army veteran and experienced agricultural advocate, was named as USDA's new military veterans agricultural liaison.
It's the Midweek Roundup.
Wednesday's Roundup brought to you by Richland Hospital, Cardinal Glass EG, and by Badgerland Flooring.
Today, it's Henko or facto.
Hanks got the questions and Phil, he's got the final say on whether it's fact or something cooked up over a cup of bad coffee.
Confidence?
Absolutely.
Accuracy?
That's where things get adventurous.
Play along and see if you can out-guess Phil because the truth is out there and Phil is doing his best to find it.
Wednesdays roundup where Factos, Hankos, and Phil... Oh, collide!
Move them on!
It's time for the roundup!
Hello
everybody and we have a substitute today for Hanko Brandon Ewing is here.
How you doing buddy?
I'm doing very well on yourself.
I'm wonderful.
The old pinchheader, the old backup all-star right fielder.
That's what I was going to introduce you
as when you were a one-time Ritzel center home talent baseball rocket.
You know what?
And I don't want to toot my own horn, but.
I was in the top five in batting and Thursday night league.
Yeah.
Top five.
Top five.
Not bad.
I'll take it.
I'll take it.
Friend of the program, Mike Hemling, he'll still introduce me to people as, Hey, you know, this guy batted in the top five in the Thursday night league, uh, home talent, home talent.
Was that just original center stand or was it mean the whole league?
Yeah,
it was online.
Honestly, I could not.
Not hit the ball that year.
Oh, yeah, and I have a kind of a goofy swing a kind of lunge at the ball But I everything I made contact with and it would find its way through so you know sometimes a blind squirrel finds another And that was me and you didn't
play high
school
baseball nor nor did your brother Brady No, I love that story because I was there one night when you drug him along to play
You know, he's, he's a track guy.
He's never played baseball.
He steps up there, gets a base hit the first
time.
So, and we played, um, the first game that we played together was a Sunday against, who did Meryl play for?
Meryl Brunson.
Um, why Oda, why Oda, we were playing why Oda big game.
Okay.
We didn't know anything Brady and I, but yeah, they were short guys.
Can you fill in?
Absolutely.
So we get out there and I still remember my first at bat, I hit a double to left center and.
I'm like, what just happened?
This is kind of easy.
Should I be playing baseball my whole life?
Beginners luck.
And then Brady's out in left field.
Okay.
Yeah.
We put him in left field and I can't remember who hit it.
It wasn't Merrill, but deep left center and Brady's tracking it, Brady's tracking it.
And he lays out for it, catches the ball and I'm.
Look, man, athletes are athletes, right?
They are.
I don't believe that was Badger approved.
No, it was not Badger.
I think it
was
supposed to be double secret that he was actually playing.
And it got back to Coach Bielamon.
Oh, yes.
And he said, no more.
Never again.
I don't blame him.
Well, I should have started the program with, thank you.
Thank you to all the veterans out there that have served.
Yeah, that have put in their service.
Um, we have the freedoms that we have because of the things that they, they, they, the sacrifices that they made and because of them, you know, we're able to do what we want to do.
So thank you.
Thank you, veteran.
Yeah.
Thanks for saying that Brandon.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
And it's, it's cool.
I mean.
You guys are going to be up at the high school.
I know actually myself, I'm going to go to St.
Mary's.
Our Catholic school has a veterans program that we're going to go to at 9 o'clock.
So pretty excited to see what the kiddos put together and to honor those that have served.
Many schools will do that.
I know we just got word that Ithaca has one today at 1.30 as well.
So
nice that they're doing that.
It's important for the next
generation to know about.
Very, to understand.
all that goes into why we have the things that we have today.
So yeah, go support if you can.
And you guys are going to be live, right?
We'll present it at one.
So listen, it's a big deal.
You bet.
Otherwise, so good to see you.
Thanks for coming out to my 40th at the auditorium that night.
And thanks for the curveball and bringing me up.
Yeah, absolutely.
Almost everybody that was up there that night was a curveball.
And it was awesome.
the crowd that you had all night, you know, and we popped in a couple of times because of the parade and with the kiddos, but yeah, we loved it.
Having Jacob up there, dancing around.
Oh, I know.
You throwing his shoes on.
I just was able to dance as soon as I did.
It did remind me a little bit of the classic Seinfeld where Kramer finds the Merriffin set, you know?
It's
like, hey, Brandon Ewing's here.
Come on, Brandon.
Come on.
Yeah, no, it was great.
Fall is awesome, isn't it?
Yeah, I like fall.
I don't like what comes after it, but
it's
been one of the best falls weather wise that I remember.
Amazing.
And so I was going to ask you, I thought this was going to be like the last hurrah of good weather, but it sounds like next week's going to be good too.
It's going to be better.
Yeah, 50s.
We'll take it.
Absolutely.
Better than snow flying.
Yeah, it'll be middle November next week.
But you know, air is getting crisp.
You know, football is kind of rounding into shape.
You know, basketball practice started for the girls for the girls.
Yeah.
Yes.
But you know what?
I don't like how dark it is.
Oh,
I don't either.
Yeah.
I mean, it's, it's different this time of day, you know, and I go home in the dark, get up in the dark.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What
do you do?
I don't
know.
It really messes with my kiddos.
Oh, does it?
Yeah.
And then Halloween.
So did you dress up for those of the days when you were here?
No, I had, I had volleyball
that day and then I had to hustle back here.
I
was the gray old radio announcer,
I guess.
It was a great Halloween.
Seriously, the weather was beautiful.
I mean, my kids loved it.
We had, I would say, the prettiest Alice that I've ever seen, Alice in Wonderland.
Oh, Rosetta dressed up as Alice.
Really?
Yeah.
Violet was Dinah, you know, Alice's cat.
Oh, sure.
Anna was the the Shesher cat.
And what were you?
So here's where I was going with this.
So you have all of these, like just they were beautifully dressed, great outfits.
You had Lee.
with one of those inflatable T-Rexes running around.
And then you had me.
So do you remember the movie Teen Wolf?
Yes.
With Michael J. Fox?
Yes.
Yeah.
Old school.
So you remember the scene?
Well, his basketball scene.
Iconic,
right?
Oh,
yeah.
You had him who transitioned to the Teen Wolf, and he was wearing his basketball jersey.
So I love that movie growing up.
And when I was probably mid-20s, early 20s, I said, hey, mom, Andrea.
Can you, can you make me a wolf costume?
And I tell you what, she did it.
She did it big.
So I was wearing, um, just the wolf costume, no jersey, no shorts, but just, could you imagine all six, five of me lumbering down the road with this and it was warm out this full fursuit on, um, I got a lot of looks.
I didn't wear the jersey though.
No, no, no, not the jersey.
So I just look like a, honestly, I look like a Sasquatch.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Walking around.
That guy needs a shave.
Speaking of.
Yeah, yeah.
Is that a deer hunting growth there?
You know, I would like to say so, but yeah, no, we're doing for Kelly supply where I work.
We're doing a thing called no shave November.
So, um, and for all of the PPE, personal protective equipment that we sell during the month of November, it goes, we donate back to, um, men's, uh, cancer health.
So.
Yeah, I thought I would help promote that a little bit.
I got home the other night though and Rosetta, my youngest daughter looks at me and she goes, Hey dad.
I go, yes, Rosetta.
She's like, what's on your face?
And I'm like, I'm growing it out.
She's like, I like it, but, um, you know, whenever butt comes into play, she's like,
I think you should shave.
She was being very nice.
Very nice.
Oh, well, yeah,
that's, uh, I mean, maybe it'll be a new look for you.
Who knows.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't like, I don't like wearing things on my face.
So, you know, I think at some point I will shave it a back off.
Yeah.
Right.
I
don't want to do that
because it confusing with Santa Claus, you know, so I don't want to be, you know, stealing his vibrant.
No, I get it.
So you need another year to recover from vice quiz.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
She can come back anytime.
She's already prepping.
She's already got a quiz ready.
Well, she's got so.
She has some favorite songs that she wants to use for name those lyrics.
Oh boy.
But I'm like, you have to understand the genre and the kind of music that Phil listens to.
Right.
If
it's newer than 1995 or something, I'm
probably
going to strike out.
You don't think you
could do K-pop Demon
Hunters?
I doubt
it.
I doubt it.
Country I'm all right, but pop not so much.
And I told her that.
You know, we were listening to those for the days the other night and it's, it's kind of bittersweet because, and it tells me that I'm getting older.
You know, some of the stuff that you're playing, I'm like, man, that's considered, you know, oldies now.
Well, sure.
It's 30.
plus years old.
So what happens when we get to like, you know, some of the rap and I think we're
stopping.
I think we've stopped
draw hard.
Exactly.
Well, the trouble is, you know, you can't play all of the stuff, you know, the fifties.
I mean, that's a long,
that is, that is
to give credit to all the decades.
It's kind of hard to do that when you keep expanding.
Yeah.
You know, but my audience, I think has gotten a little younger as well, because let's face it.
get a little older, you don't stay up as
late.
That and you know, the good Lord, you know, sometimes those, that, that generation will pass and it, and it brings the next years in.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
So
stay real and relevant.
I stay the same age.
That's what I love about that.
Absolutely.
And you've talked at length about the brewers, but.
How awesome was that?
That was
incredible.
I still, it just seems surreal
to me.
It still hasn't sunk in.
And then Pat Murphy winning manager of the year last night for a third time, which
has never happened, which is
very deserving.
Absolutely.
But the guy's talking from his hospital bed.
I don't know if you heard that clip.
He had hip surgery, just like I did a year ago.
And he's talking from his hospital bed, you know, accepting the award.
That was pretty awesome.
You know what?
And you said it, it is, yeah.
for the first time to happen, it is the so deserving.
The guy is, he's hard, but he, and he stands by his non-negotiables.
That guy has non-negotiables, but he is, he has unwavering support for his guys and those that, that team completely bought into him, his demeanor, his mentality.
Um, yeah.
I mean, you look at throughout the years, he sat down, Yelly in, in, in the championship playoff, you know, and he, um,
He benched guys throughout the year and that could derail a team, but no, all of those guys bought in.
Um, yeah, it's a testament to him.
It's a testament to the team.
Absolutely.
Really
exciting.
Some of those younger guys and, you know, we're just hopeful.
I mean, they're still going to be relevant.
You're just hopeful.
Maybe they can do it again.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
And I don't, do you think that there's, yes, we have superstars, you know, we do.
Okay.
But.
Do you think they're a product of what they're trying to do right now, which is bucking the trend, hitting for average, you know, doing all of the things that other teams aren't?
I think they
are.
Right.
And I, you know, the 82 team, what do we have?
Like five eventual Hall of Famers.
I'm not sure if there's a Hall of Famer in this group.
Yeah.
Maybe,
you know, I mean, if, if the men's
puts together a long career, he would certainly be one Cooper Pratt.
And, you know, I mean, they've got a long time and, you know, Jackson, Cheerio and Terrang, they're all, but I, you know, will they be Hall of Famers?
I
don't know.
I mean, do you ever think like, listen to your quiz yesterday, Molliter hitting 354.
Yes.
Will we ever see that
again?
I don't think.
I think pitching has gotten a little better.
I mean, not
taking anything from away from that, but yeah, it's changed.
It's evolved
back in
the day.
And I remember Rod Carew was right around, you know, they were at one time.
They're like, he, you know, he may be the first one to hit for 400 since what Ted Williams
or
whatever.
He didn't, but I mean, he was in the ballpark toward
400.
Yeah.
I mean, in a game where you're going to fail really, you know,
three out of four times.
Those guys were hitting 400, 300 to 400.
It's just wild.
Yeah, it is almost as good as you on Thursday nights.
You know, not quite.
Oh man.
Different game.
Different game.
Right.
But I never thought I would see a
Brewers championship.
Me either.
No.
So we've seen the bucks, which I don't know.
It's going to be a long time before
that
happens.
I was wearing my bucks gear on Saturday night and we had a big birthday over the weekend.
So it was my father's birthday.
And so we got all the crew together and I was wearing my bucks gear and Andrea looks at me and goes, you're going to support a one in 17.
And I said, passion has no preseason mom.
They need support more now.
That's exactly what I said.
Exactly.
No, it's, um,
I know it was going to be a long stretch, you know, but it's a youth movement.
Right.
And they will move some of the big contract, big names off of the team before the trade deadline, which honestly, I completely support.
I want to see what the young guys have and then they're going to build this the right way.
Right.
Every
sports different, you know, and in that sport, you can't really get somebody that's just going to be a superstar unless you give up, you know, and the Vikings yesterday trade for Kirk Cousins,
a
third rounder
for a
starting quarterback.
How does that work?
I don't know.
You know, I mean, football is totally different.
And I used to get so mad at Ted Thompson because he would hold these third, fourth, fifth round draft choices like they were, you
know, and I guess some of them were, but it's like, come on.
It's football is a different, different animal, but.
I'm telling you, do we need to make a move?
Did we?
I didn't think they were going to.
I didn't think
so either.
And as
somebody pointed out, they gave it quite a bit for Parsons this year.
For sure.
So
that's probably part of it.
And I looked at it, talking with some of my friends.
It's like, okay, you're going to have an addition at the trade den light.
We're going to get Parsons back.
Yes, exactly.
And it's like, that's going to be a breath of fresh air for a defense that's locked in and dialed in right now.
Sure.
The only thing could have been maybe a lineman.
Yeah, I don't
know.
But
we're doing okay.
They're
getting better.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Can't run the ball very well.
But everybody wanted
Taylor, right?
From the
coach.
Badgers.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Badgers.
The Badgers.
Right.
I mean, that would have been nice, but they stood, they didn't get rid of him.
He's, he's staying with
the coach.
Yeah, which
surprised me.
Me too.
Yeah.
Actually, I thought there could have been a lot of running back movement.
I know that this isn't a sports, but you know, you and I are together.
So we could, we can talk sports all day.
But yeah, I thought a couple of running backs could have moved around and shifted around.
And yeah, everybody kind of stayed pat.
Right.
But.
But
I don't know, it comes down to blocking.
I don't think it's all the running backs right now.
They
figure something out.
Maybe it'll improve.
Yeah, we'll see.
We'll see.
June's Bears are still doing well.
So,
you know, that means she made an apple crisp for me last night.
Whenever
they
went, it's like, whoa.
So we got a big game this weekend.
Do the Bears and Packers finish it out?
No, they play on Christmas Day.
Oh, yeah.
Like peace and love.
And
here we go.
How's divided?
Oh,
boy.
I'll pray for you.
Oh boy.
And I think it's just her and I
that I think
all the kitties aren't coming till later that weekend.
So I'll really
pray for you.
Exactly.
Oh, well, well, thank you, Phil.
Appreciate you coming
in.
Absolutely.
Anytime, brother.
Always good to see your family's doing well.
Doing really well.
Violet's doing well in school.
And she talks about you.
She was a little bum.
She couldn't come in today.
So that.
next round might have to come sooner than later.
Some
other time.
Absolutely.
Hopefully she's doing well in school because I need her to come in when I retire to replace me.
So
be careful what you wish for.
Okay.
Have a good one.
See ya.
Yep.
