You Say It’s Your Birthday (Hour 1)
Not gonna lie—the host of this daily radio program has been a little off as he approached today’s milestone birthday. It’s the last live show for the week, so he’s decided the best course of action is to kick back and invite friends to come on for informal chats rather than traditional news interviews. That includes our favorite Wisconsin power couple: Melissa Baldauff and Joe Zepecki.

Now He ‘Loves’ Milwaukee? (1st Hour)
Former President Donald Trump told a crowd Tuesday that he loves Milwaukee.

Building Back Better (Hour 1)
We’ve had a lot to say about the climate and energy benefits in the Inflation Reduction Act, but in this week’s Climate Check segment, Melissa Baldauff helps us go back to the beginning—when the bill was known as President Biden’s Build Back Better plan before it went through the congressional sausage grinder. It’s a lesson in perseverance, compromise, and the potential to make a good thing even better in the future—rather than taking your ball and going home.

Trump Chickens Out (Hour 1)
Former President Trump said repeatedly that he was being unfairly restrained and that he couldn’t wait to testify. A porn star did. His former “fixer” did. That guy at the National Enquirer did. But Trump, the first former American president to stand trial, refused to provide his own testimony refuting the evidence. On the other hand, he did recently solicit a billion-dollar bribe from oil company executives.

AWOL Again (Hour 1)

And in our weekly Climate Check, an update on the citizen-scientist project to monitor air quality in Beloit and gauge the significant challenge for cleaning it up.
