Dems in Array (Hour 1)
It’s a well-worn punchline in political circles: “Dems in Disarray!” scream the headlines at the slightest sign that Democrats aren’t marching in lockstep. But compare progressives to what Republicans are going through on two fronts—the public backlash for repealing abortion rights and the internal turmoil over the debt ceiling deal. We’ll visit with Joe Zepecki […]

Public Cervix Announcement: Poisonous Sunscreen (Hour 2)
Dr. Kristin Lyerly is here for Public Cervix announcement. We talk mouse breast milk, poisonous sunscreen and Boric acid uses. Then she sticks around to talk about the article from last week announcing she is considering running against Rep. Mike Gallagher for Congress.
To Give Is to Live (Hour 2)
In this week’s Hometown Health segment, organ donation is being encouraged—by someone who donated one of her kidneys. Dr. Cara Syth discusses what led her to provide such a precious gift so that someone else’s life could benefit.
Florida Man: Ron ‘DiSaster’ (Hour 1)

Tammy Baldwin is connecting the dots between her work on behalf of veterans vs. GOP plans to cut veterans’ benefits. Others, however, aren’t connecting the dots between the Republican threat to crash the economy […]
Gerrymandering Is Bad for Your Health (Hour 2)
In this week’s Hometown Health segment, Dr. Kristin Lyerly and a guest discuss the impact when a community that wants an improved healthcare system is blocked by politicians who hold power despite not having majority support. By rigging the political maps, they’re able to allow for-profits corporations to control the kinds of care people get—and […]
Never Failing to Fail (Hour 1)
We once thought we were wrong, but we were mistaken. Moments after calling on legislative Republicans to negotiate with Gov. Evers on improving state aid to cities, counties, and towns, we learned the two sides were talking and the governor was optimistic about reaching a deal. But never failing to fail, the Assembly GOP walked […]
We’ve Been Down This Path Before (Hour 1)
The national news programs have been focused on the southern border and the elimination of a pandemic-era restriction on immigration—but the problems our country faces have been around since long before COVID, and they could have been solved by now were it not for the sabotage done by a few right-wing members of Congress a […]
Public Cervix Announcement (Hour 2)
