Hans Breitenmoser
Lessons and Legacies (Hour 1)
Matt Rothschild and Angela Lang, Executive Director of BLOC, guest cohost today. US Rep Mark Pocan (D, WI-02) joins Matt and Angela at the top of the hour to discuss where we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going. They’re big topics, and worth exploring. The three begin with a somber reflection on the […]
An Unconventional Constitutional Convention (Hour 1)
Far-right politicians, feeling they have momentum, are pushing harder to convene a constitutional convention—something not done since the Constitution was first written and an event sure to spark chaos. But it leads to this question: What would you do if you could write a new Constitution? Fix the 2nd Amendment? Stop allowing money to equal […]
Pardon Me, but Stop the Hypocrisy (Hour 2)
President Biden’s unconditional pardon of his son Hunter has united two groups of people who rarely come together: hypocritical conservatives who didn’t say “boo” about Trump pardoning a Who’s Who of political criminals—and easily-startled progressives who work too hard at trying not to be too supportive of the president who got more done than Democratic […]
Noble and Nobel Pursuits (Hour 2)
For the first half hour, Dom and Jess discuss the Nobel Prize. There’s so much in this world that makes us see the worst in humanity. How good it can be to acknowledge the good we work towards! Then, we revisit our talk with farmer Hans Breitenmoser from Tuesday. If you missed that episode, check […]
Honor the Work (Hour 1)
First, it’s OT w/MD as Maggie Daun sticks around for a half hour to chat legal matters with Dom. This week, we’re talking about Robin Vos and his comments on Michael Gabelman, and tariffs. Just today, Trump announced- via social media- his plan to enact a 25% tariff on imported goods from Mexico and Canada. […]
All Grandmas Should Act This Way!(Hour 2)
In the second hour, we welcome Hans Breitenmoser, a dairy farmer from Lincoln County, Wisconsin. Tariffs and mass deportations are two topics which affect Hans and many farmers around the country. Remember when a wrong number led to a beautiful friendship? Well not all end up like this and we talk about your bad Thanksgiving […]
Civic Media Spotlight for the Week of November 18th (Hour 1)
On the Dom Salvia Show, Maggie Daun sticks around after her 2-4pm show to do some Overtime radio-ing with Dom as she does every Tuesday! On this week’s Over Time w/Maggie Daun, former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman faces a SERIOUS disciplinary filing from our state’s Office of Lawyer Regulations. For, well, violating just […]
The Economic Disaster of Mass Deportations (Hour 2)
From dairy farming to field work to food processing, no part of America’s food supply would be safe from President-elect Trump if he follows through on promises of mass deportation of undocumented immigrants. We’ll talk to Lincoln Co. dairy farmer Hans Breitenmoser about the impact on prices, supplies, safety, and Wisconsin’s $113 billion ag economy. […]
Out of Time to Make Things Right (Hour 2)
Whether it’s Republican legislators suddenly claiming to be bipartisan dealmakers or a congressman who accomplished nothing on the House Agriculture Committee, there’s little that can be said in these final three weeks of the campaign that can un-do two years of choosing to play political games rather than solve problems. We’ll talk to Assembly candidate […]
Discombobricated (Hour 2)
Naturally, with Dan Shafer appearing from The Discombobulation Area, we had to research the etymology of that special word, only to end up down the rabbit hole of early 1800s mock-Latin as a source of humor. Hey, anything for a quick diversion from politics, of which Dan will share aplenty. Also, White House senior advisor […]
