What’s New With Wisconsin Watch? With Jack Kelly (Hour 2)
This last weekend, a tragic fire in an outdated Milwaukee apartment building killed five people and injured or displaced several others.
As the weather warms up, many people will be exercising more to try and lose weight. Todd asks us What’s Worse: pointing out weight loss or not pointing out weight loss? Some people are sensitive about these issues, but others want to show it off.
At the bottom of the hour, Jack Kelly of Wisconsin Watch returns to the show to share some of the biggest news from their weekly newsletter, Forward. As Sen. Kelda Roys spoke about earlier, the Joint Finance Committee’s budget negotiations take top billing in state news. Jack walks us through the basics of the budget process and many of the key debates, including the future of childcare funding.

Wisconsin Politics and Legal Drama Unfold
Cinco de Mayo kicks off with Todd Allbaugh and Sam Davisson at the helm while Zommers is down with illness. The episode dives into Wisconsin's brewing political scene as Washington County's Josh Schoeman enters the 2026 governor's race. With Evers' future undecided, the GOP primary tensions rise. Meanwhile, Milwaukee Judge Dugan's arrest echoes a past Massachusetts case, spotlighting potential political motivations behind federal charges. Todd also shares a laughable Brewers game story, and reflects on Ron Johnson's apathy towards improving Wisconsin - be it on the farms or the schools of Milwaukee.

Civic Media Spotlight for January 11th & 12th (Hour 1)
On the Dom Salvia Show, Dom, with cohost of the day Jim Santelle, talks with Jack Kelly, statehouse reporter for Wisconsin Watch on the upcoming Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Read Jack's most recent piece on the current and potential future status of the state's highest court here. With a current 4-3 liberal-conservative population and a liberal justice retiring, April's election will decide whether the current balance maintains or tips to the conservatives.
Then, on John and Gordy In the Morning, the guys talk with Pam Jahnke about the premiere of Green and Gold, the new movie shot in Wisconsin about the Green Bay Packers.
Next, on UpNorthNews Radio, Assembly Minority Leader Rep. Greta Neubauer (D-Racine) and new state Sen. Sarah Keyeski (D-Lodi) discuss the opening of the new session of the Wisconsin Legislature. They had big hopes for bipartisan progress, now that fairer maps have made the Assembly and Senate more representative of Wisconsin voters. But Republicans have spent the week rushing to pass a voter suppression measure and even stripping away Democratic seats on committees.
Wrapping up the hour on the Maggie Daun Show, Maggie talks about one of her New Year intentions, not resolutions, of playing more. Maggie shares some of her favorite board games and takes calls and texts for recommendations about what games she can work into her intention to play more in 2025.

Read Jack's most recent piece on the current and potential future status of the state's highest court here. With a current 4-3 liberal-conservative population and a liberal justice retiring, April's election will decide whether the current balance maintains or tips to the conservatives.
Then, Jim and Dom dive into updates on the legal tribulations of President-elect Donald Trump. The 45th and soon to be 47th POTUS seeks delays, dismissal, and denial of all wrongdoing on his part in each of the prosecutions against him.
