The hour begins with background on a case that could sink the Supreme Court candidacy of a conservative judge, after someone out on bail nearly killed their in-laws.

Wha’ Happened? – Part 2
We ask three friends of the show about the “red wave” that never quite materialized and what lessons we can learn from the wins and losses in Wisconsin and around the country. Contributing analyst Joe Zepecki in Milwaukee, Courier Newsroom national correspondent Keya Vakil in Los Angeles, and Brett Pransky from our Pennsylvania outlet The Keystone help us make sense of Tuesday’s results.
On Friday:
- Sen. Tammy Baldwin talks to us about asking the US Dept. of Education to go after predatory private schools that forced students into unnecessarily expensive loans while offering nearly-worthless diplomas. Also, Courier Newsroom political director Carolyn Fiddler, former Chicago Tribune editor Mark Jacob, and UW-Eau Claire athletic director Dan Schumacher.
Weekly Best of UpNorthNews Radio with Pat Kreitlow (Week of 10/31)
This week on Up North News Radio, Pat covers Republican attempts to "prove" faults in our election system by committing fraud themselves. Just because you theoretically can rob a bank doesn't mean banks all need to be shut down.
Pat is also joined by Joe Zepecki and Matthew Rothschild to discuss various subjects including the corruption in campaign spending. We round out the hour with some of your calls, as well as a short message from Pat about the purpose of this show.
Thanks for listening!
