Pat Kreitlow
Do-Nothing Derrick Strikes Again (Hour 1)
It’s Hump Day once again, and the gang’s all here! We hear from Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project on issues around the state and the nation. Derrick “Do-Nothing” Van Orden is living up to his new nickname, as he and his MAGA colleagues refuse to accomplish anything in the House of Representatives. Trump’s followers are stalling to avoid giving Biden a victory, endangering the entire world in the process. Van Orden himself is simply too busy complaining about the lack of Free Bird in the Culver’s playlist.
As regular listeners may know, Trygve Olson has traveled Eastern Europe, campaigning to promote democracy. He has a deep insight into how politics work in places like Ukraine and Russia, and the consequences of the House’s inaction could be dire. We cannot appease Russia, and thus we must continue to support Ukraine.

We are joined by Up North News host Pat Kreitlow to discuss further legislation pushed by the WI GOP on diversity issues and the disturbing language being used. The warm weather continues and we talk to meteorologist Brittney Merlot to find out if that will change and what we expect the groundhog to say tomorrow.
Why Does Walker Gotta Be So Mean? (Hour 1)
Today, we invite former Wisconsin governor Scott Walker to the show to discuss his angry tweets about Taylor Swift. To the surprise of nobody, he doesn’t show up, so we instead speak with Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project. One big question is on our minds: why does the MAGA movement hate T Swift so much? We take your calls on this fiery topic.
Ultimately, one of our callers says it best: celebrities have the political sway they do because many Americans simply cannot relate to politicians.
Listen to UpNorthNews Radio with Pat Kreitlow across the Civic Media network from 6-8 am on weekdays! You can also follow Trygve Olson on Twitter/X @TrygveOlson.

The Freedom To Read (Hour 2)
This hour, we are pleased to welcome Jimmie Kaska, Civic Media’s Sports Director and Digital Content Director. Also a member of the Boscobel school board, Jimmie has a lot to say about the changing landscape of education in our state. While many financial trends are concerning, it’s not all bad. Our expert educators are addressing the future of AI, STEM, and partnerships with community colleges and tech schools.
Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio stops in during our last half hour to further explain the consequences of spending state money on private schools. As he says, the Venn diagram of people defunding education and people fighting to destroy democracy is a circle. Pat and Todd also discuss State Superintendent Dr. Jill Underly’s push for students to have the freedom to read.

Be True To Your School (Hour 1)
Todd comes to us live from Milwaukee at the Wisconsin State Education Convention! Our schools are the heart of our communities, and we must provide the support they need. Todd takes your calls on the politics surrounding public education in Wisconsin, talking primarily about private school voucher programs taking money from public schools. Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio calls in to give his perspective as a former legislator.
Todd also takes a call about why he left the Republican party. Ultimately though, it was the Republican party that left him. Todd’s values have remained largely the same, but his former party has resorted to fear-based politics. Modern Republican leadership seeks to divide us, starving out public education and suppressing minority voters.

Pat Kreitlow joins us to talk about Robin Vos stopping a bill that would aid postpardem women, the continuing games the state Senate plays with the Governor’s appointees and more. Plus we talk to Bull Falls Radio sports reporter Mike Clemens about the Packers playoff at San Francisco and the Bucks up and down season.
God Made a Dictator (Hour 1)
On this Crossover Wednesday, Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project provide their perspective on the results of the Iowa caucus. They also take a moment to share a new ad from The Lincoln Project called God Made a Dictator. Recently, Trump’s campaign used AI to spoof the classic Paul Harvey radio spot, God Made a Farmer, turning it into a self-aggrandizing worship piece called God Made Trump. Created by Rick Wilson, the new Lincoln Project video shows historical dictators, comparing their behavior to that of Donald Trump, culminating in a powerful call to action for the American people. While particularly poignant for Christians, Pat asserts that it presents a compelling case for anybody who listens all the way to the end.
Trygve Olson sticks around to dive deeper into this year’s presidential campaigns. While Nikki Haley is shaping up to be Donald Trump’s primary competition, she still refuses to condemn him for his actions. Despite being the only woman on the campaign trail, when asked about Trump’s sexual assault case, Haley deflects the question. After letting us know what to look for in next week’s New Hampshire caucus, Todd and Trygve move on to talk Packers and celebrate their unexpected success.
Looking for more Pat Kreitlow? We’ll have him with us tomorrow as Todd travels to Milwaukee to talk public education with educators from around the state. Of course, you can also hear him on UpNorthNews Radio weekdays from 6-8 am across the Civic Media radio network, and on our app.
