Civic Media Spotlight for January 4th & 5th (Hour 1)

January 4, 2025

Kicking off this weekend's Civic Media Spotlight, Jane, Greg and Calvin talk about whether they make New Year's Resolutions and what effect they have on us if we don't follow through. We take calls and read texts from the listeners on this and give advice on how to reach goals for yourself.

Then, Green Bay based comedian John Egan joins Nite Lite with Pete Schwaba. John talks about the stand-up scene in Green Bay and De Pere. Pete and John share stories from around the state in comedy, and John talks about new dates coming up!

Following that on the Todd Allbaugh Show, Todd updates listeners on the tragic attack in New Orleans in the early hours of New Year's Day. His focus in this segment is on the Fox News coverage. They made up lies about the alleged perpetrator before anybody really had any information, stating that he was an illegal immigrant and this is all Joe Biden's fault. In reality, he was a citizen of Texas and an Afghanistan veteran. Todd emphasizes the importance of truth, and how Fox News has continually failed to reach that goal.

Wrapping up the first hour, on The Maggie Daun Show guest hosted by Dan Shafer, Dan is joined by BLOC’s Angela Lang and Law Forward’s  Jeff Mandell to discuss the complexities of ACT 10 and its repeal. Enacted in Wisconsin in 2011, ACT 10 severely limited public sector unions' collective bargaining rights, sparking protests and debates over workers' rights.

Winners, Losers, And A Guy In A Tux (Hour 1)

Like all year end shows, we have a small retrospective on the winners and losers in Wisconsin, thanks to Daniel Bice. We talk about all of those who came out ahead and far behind. Then we welcome Civic Media's very own Todd Allbaugh to the show and he brings the fancy wear, too! We're discussing what happens to a MAGA party that just can't get along and those effects on the people. Finally, we have some questions about a boat that is still stuck on a the beach in Milwaukee, drawing the attention of dozens of people.

Civic Media Spotlight for December 21st & 22nd (Hour 2)

December 21, 2024

It was 80 years ago this week that the Battle of The Bulge took place in WWII, and 100-year-old veteran Jack Kraszewski of Pulaski joined Maino & The Mayor and shared memories of that very day. Not only did he serve our country, but he also came back and became a cheesemaker and later a brewer of Schlitz beer in Milwaukee. A wonderful gentleman that we are honored to have met.

Then, on the Dom Salvia Show, Dom and cohost of the day Earl Ingram address the looming government shutdown and who is casting its shadow: Elon Musk. No one elected Musk, but people DID elect their legislators, who are now being overtly threatened by Trump and Musk.

On the John & Gordy Show, the guys are joined by Mike McCabe to talk about his latest digital piece on the parallels between 1930’s Bank Robbers and Luigi Mangione as folk heroes in the American psyche.

Last but not least, Todd Allbaugh Show has been following the closure of two-year UW campuses since the canary first stopped singing, and the saga is unfortunately far from over. A new article from WORT details that the Board of Regents spent a staggering $51 million on consultants over the last four years- over THREE TIMES the budget deficit in that same period that led to catastrophic layoffs at UW Oshkosh. We know the Republicans are behind this, but where are the Democrats? They aren't exactly trying to stop it.

Disappointed Dems And All The Best People (Hour 1)

December 3, 2024

We're back baby! We've had the turkey, the dressing and the pie, so it's time to get back to y'all and talk about the breaking news! Over the weekend, President Biden pardoned his son, Hunter and people have opinions. Then Civic Media's very own Todd Allbaugh joins to the show to talk about the recent overturning of Act 10 and what that means for Wisconsin and why we need to keep our eyes on the 2025 elections.

Civic Media Spotlight for the Week of November 18th (Hour 1)

November 23, 2024

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 about every attorney ethics standard there is.

Then on the Todd Allbaugh Show, Todd dives into the story developing in Mauston, where a series of failed referendums to fund their public schools have left the school district in dire straits. They may have to dissolve completely! With the help of a caller who used to teach in Milwaukee, Todd explains how we got to this point, as well as some tricky ways our GOP-led state legislature diverts even more money to private schools.

After that on UpNorthNews Radio, whatever reason folks were thinking of when voting for Donald Trump, they’d better prepare for the impact on food prices and the economy. Dairy farmer Hans Breitenmoser talks to Pat Kreitlow about how mass deportations would cripple every part of America’s food supply chain and higher tariffs would lead to skyrocketing grocery prices.

In the final segment of this Spotlight, the John and Gordy Show is joined by Tim Slekar of the BustED Pencils podcast, to talk about the second Trump Administration’s announcement of Linda McMahon as the Secretary of Education.

And She Did So With Grace (Hour 1)

November 7, 2024

Hey, how are you doing? We're gonna keep checking in, because there's a lot going on and we want to make sure you're taking care of yourself. Vice President Kamala Harris conceded the election yesterday and y'all...the level of grace and positivity she held while speaking is what joy is all about. Tanya Atkinson from Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin stops by to discuss the effects taking place so soon since the election was called. We also welcome Todd Allbaugh to the show to talk about everything that's happened this week. We'll share our thoughts and we invite you to do the same.

The Morning After (Hour 1)

November 6, 2024

Once again, Wisconsin was the national tipping point—for giving Donald Trump a victory. Just as in 2016, Wisconsin voters decided he was their preferred choice to demonstrably better women running against him. We’ll start by asking the only question that’s actually productive at a time like this: What’s next?
