It’s About the Rule of Law (Hour 2)
During President Trump’s first-term trade war, farmers in Wisconsin and nationwide got $23 billion in bailout payments but they would’ve rather had the $27 billion in export business Trump blocked. Now there’s discussion on another multi-billion dollar price tag to keep farmers afloat during a second trade war—but Congress has delayed some other farm assistance for years. So which will it be: another stiff arm and delays or another costly bailout? We’ll talk to a Wisconsin farmer and a top official with the National Farmers Union.

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 Yee Leng Xiong from Marathon County and Mike Stranz from the National Farmers Union about providing voters with better options.

Charged Up to ‘See You Next Time’ (2nd Hour)
UpNorthNews Radio with Pat Kreitlow kicks off the hour with a recap of the holiday weekend's weather and a forecast for this week with meteorologist Brittney Merlot. Then, Dr. Kristin Lyerly drops in for a discussion on what is going on in Louisiana in regards to mifepristone and medication abortions.
The, big gas station chains like Kwik Trip have built a successful business model around “get in, fill up, get out.” But what happens when “see you next time” becomes “not going anywhere for awhile?”
In the second half hour, Hans Breitenmoser and Mike Stranz join the show to talk about the progress that has been made in the U.S. Farm bill in the House of Representatives at the end of last week. Finally, Chad Holmes stops by to share HIS thoughts on Kwik Trip, his recent poker tournament results, and what's coming up on the Chad Holmes Show.
