Crypto Scammers in High Places (Hour 3)
We’ll ask Sean O’Malley about the way Congress and the Trump administration are trying to lend legitimacy to the cryptocurrency industry. But does it change the nature of something so intangible and inherently risky to the economy? And Joe Zepecki talks about his run for state Democratic Party chair and the path forward to better election outcomes in 2026.

Make Beer More Expensive? Trump ‘Can’ (Hour 3)
We’ll talk to Sean O’Malley about your money and the markets—including President Trump’s newest tariff, one that’s going to jack up prices for almost anything in a can. His tariffs on imported beer and aluminum aren’t likely to help aluminum and steel jobs nearly as much as it’ll hurt consumers and workers through the beverage and food industries.

Doubling Down on Doing Good (Hour 3)
Sen.

We’ll discuss that with Joe Zepecki. We’ll talk to Chad Holmes about stories he’s covering around Wausau. And Sean O’Malley talks about Money and Markets.

A Ghoulish Turn, Even for Ron Johnson (Hour 3)
Wisconsin’s senior senator and foremost conspiracy theorist is at it again. Sen. Ron Johnson could have been content wishing former President Biden a full recovery from his new battle with prostate cancer. Instead, he announced a committee investigation of Biden’s health and questioned his fitness for office. We’ll assess whether there’s validity to the questions or if it’s another ghoulish effort to distract from Johnson’s work to slash important services to fund tax cuts for folks in Johnson’s tax bracket and above. And we’ll continue our second round of interviews with candidates for state Democratic Party chair with Joe Zepecki.

Passing The Buck (Hour 3)
People like US Rep. Derrick Van Orden love to talk about “following orders,” but he and other GOP lawmakers won’t be able to pass the buck and blame only President Trump for an economy heading toward recession. We’ll talk to Joe Zepecki about Wednesday’s vote in Congress that could have modified or ended Trump’s disastrous trade war, but they’ve decided to keep their wagon hitched to his falling star.

When The Truth Matters… (Hour 1)
Last week, we broke the news regarding the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan on charges of obstructing justice. As more information becomes available, we talk about some details that are being left out of mainstream papers, details which cast the situation in a whole new light. Next, Bill Owens is probably someone you don't know, but you know the show he ran, 60 Minutes. Mr. Owens resigned this past week over the loss of independence and possible influence from the president. Then, we welcome back to the show, Joe Zepecki, a political consultant and now, candidate for Chair of The Democratic Party of Wisconsin. Joe talks about his travels around the state, what people are saying and how YOU can be a part of the election process.

Autism Speaks… Better Than RFK Jr.(Hour 3)
We’ll get reaction to the incendiary comments made about people with autism by Robert Kennedy, Jr., the US Health and Human Services Secretary. (We know, we still can’t believe it either.)

And Joe Zepecki helps us review the week’s political headlines and gives us an update on his run for state Democratic Party chair.

How Joe Zepecki Wants To Lead WI Democrats (Hour 1)
Today is our first show at our new time of 2-4 pm! Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project follows us into the mid-afternoon to share his unique perspective on the news of the day. Like Todd, he is a native Wisconsinite and former Republican. Unlike Todd, Trygve has worked in politics at all levels around the world, including presidential campaigns and battling authoritarianism in Eastern Europe. We ask Trygve about the developments of the Trump administration’s complete disregard of due process and rule of law.
At the bottom of the hour, we are visited by Democratic political operative Joe Zepecki of Zepecki Communications. Ben Wikler recently announced that he will not run for reelection as Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. Now, Zepecki is running to carry on the torch. He talks with Todd and Trygve about the ways he plans to build on Wikler’s legacy of success in our state.
