BREAKING: GOP Reaches Across Aisle For Budget (Hour 1)
Happy Friday! To kick off today’s show, Civic Media Political Editor and founder of The Recombobulation Area Dan Shafer joins us live from the WAUK studios to share some breaking news. Ostensibly, the Republican-led state legislature is finally getting serious about passing a state budget. Realizing that they cannot do it on their own, they have now invited Democratic State Senator Dianne Hesselbein to the table for negotiations. While this move inspires some hope that a budget may yet be passed by July, we maintain a healthy skepticism. Yesterday’s Joint Finance Committee meeting was rescheduled to 10 am today before being delayed twice more to 2 pm and now 4 pm as we began our show.
After that discussion, we are joined once again by our friend and legal expert Matt Flynn. Yesterday, we spoke with him about some state Supreme Court decisions. Today, the national Supreme Court has released an opinion that may put birthright citizenship in danger.

On The Edge Of Culture And Comedy with Keegan Kelly (Hour 2)
To kick off today’s second hour, we speak with our friend and legal expert Matt Flynn on the selection of an American Pope.
This afternoon, Todd asks us What’s Worse: losing hair or gaining weight? Neither of these signs of aging are pleasant. It’s hard to choose, so we take your calls and texts to determine which is worse.
At the bottom of the hour, we debut a new segment: On The Edge Of Culture And Comedy with Keegan Kelly! As a writer at Cracked.com, he has a lot of unique takes on the culture of media. It’s been a long time since we’ve had him on the show, so we take some time to catch up on his latest work. Here are the articles we delve into:

The Trump Administration Is Arresting Judges Now (Hour 1)
Earlier today, the FBI arrested Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly obstructing justice by aiding an undocumented person in an escape from ICE capture. Apparently, ICE agents were poised outside of Judge Dugan’s courtroom to detain a defendant during a pre-trial conference. Judge Dugan then directed the defendant and his legal team to exit through a private door.
Here to dissect the situation is our friend and legal expert Matt Flynn. From the information publicly available, it is Matt’s opinion that Judge Dugan has not done anything illegal. Judges in Wisconsin are allowed to direct people in their courtrooms to use any exits they wish. If anything, the ICE agents disrupted the sanctity of her courtroom, as they did not have a judicial warrant.
At the bottom of the hour, Todd rounds up the latest news on the Trump administration’s tariff purgatory. After a meeting with several retail executives, it appears that Trump has been convinced to soften the tariffs he plans to impose on Chinese goods. While this is almost certainly a good move, it’s too little too late, as Trump’s wanton application of tariffs have already caused many shipments to be canceled or routed elsewhere.

Mondays With Matt: On The Passing Of Pope Francis (Hour 1)
This morning, Pope Francis passed away. Todd believes that this Pope was one of the greatest in modern history due to his humility and intentional reflection of Christ’s teachings over religious dogma. Regardless of one’s religion, Pope Francis’s focus on acceptance was admirable.
Today, our friend Matt Flynn joins us to talk about the Pope’s impact on Catholicism. In addition to serving as the Chair of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, Matt is an attorney, and he represented Milwaukee’s Roman Catholic Archdiocese for many years. In this position, he had a unique vantage point on the Catholic sexual abuse scandal. He shares details good and bad in his book, Confessions of a Church Lawyer: In Defense of Christianity.
We also ask Matt’s opinion on continuing developments in the Trump administration’s illegal deportations. What does this mean for the future of due process in America?
At the bottom of the hour, Civic Media Sports Director Jimmie Kaska joins us to discuss some big changes coming to the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA). Once again, Name, Image and Likeness deals are potentially on the table for high school students. Wisconsin is the last state to allow these NIL deals in high school, and Jimmie expects the amendment to pass this time.

Mondays With Matt: Bypassing The Constitution (Hour 1)
As is now the norm, a lot of incredibly important news broke over the weekend. On Saturday, March 15th, the Trump administration directly defied a court order and faced no consequences. Our judicial branch relies on compliance, and the Executive branch simply chose not to comply. Our friend and legal expert Matt Flynn joins us to address this dire situation and what it may mean for the future of our constitutional democracy.

Shooters Shoot with Peter Rapine (Hour 2)
Just as our show began today, our President and Vice President verbally assaulted President Zelenskyy of Ukraine. Our friend Matt Flynn joins us to cover the history that is being made today.

We the People doesn’t include hostile Russian assets (Hour 2)
Matt Flynn, former chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, joins us for most of the hour. Our democracy faces grave threats as the 47th President of this nation seeks to subvert our Constitution, isolate us from our allies, and disregard the will of We the People. And is it possible- is it AT ALL possible- that our President is a Russian asset? Matt Flynn, known firebrand for democracy and fierce opponent to fascism and Communism says "Yes." When asked what Trump would do if he were or were not a Russian asset, Matt lays out exactly what Trump would do were he NOT. And it turns out Trump's not doing any of that. His actions instead align with someone intent on furthering the objectives of Putin, a known dictator, while isolating the United States and We the People from our allies. Scary stuff.
Still, we end the day with something good. Because we need the good. We need the reminders that amidst the chaos and the uncertainty and the fear, we have each other. And there are good moments worth cherishing, sharing, and preserving.
