It’s No Joke: Be A Voter Today with Pat Kreitlow (Hour 1)
Finally, after two and a half years, Todd has successfully infiltrated the woke den of liberal indoctrination that is Civic Media. Just kidding! Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio joins us this Tuesday, April first to talk about something that isn’t a joke: today’s election for state supreme court and state superintendent.
Lately, Civic Media has been running several political ads endorsing Brad Schimel. While we as a company do not endorse him, we are legally obligated to run all ads submitted by political candidates. Todd breaks down the lies in one of the most egregiously false ads running on our network.

Secretary Pete Hegseth Is Putting All Of Us In Danger (Hour 1)
Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio is officially sick of Trygve Olson’s age jokes. Henceforth, he shall join us on Tuesdays. (In reality, he now has a meeting that conflicts with our Wednesday show, but Trygve doesn’t need to know that.)
This morning, Dan Bice published a new article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Elon Musk is paying people $25/hr to knock on doors for Brad Schimel, but it seems that he’s not actually making sure they know anything about the candidate or the race.
Todd and Pat wrap up their time together with a recap of the latest excitement in college hockey and basketball tournaments.
At the bottom of the hour, Todd talks us through the latest goof from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Hegseth accidentally added a journalist to a Signal group chat about imminent war plans. No, this is not a joke. The military actions discussed in the chat were carried out shortly thereafter.

Civic Media Spotlight for March 22nd & 23rd (Hour 1)
First this weekend, we check out a conversation between the Maggie Daun Show and Dr. Melinda Brennan, Executive Director of the Wisconsin ACLU. Dr. Brennan joins Maggie to discuss how the current immigration practices will affect Wisconsin's economy and why all of us should care how immigrants are cared for.
Then, on UpNorthNews Radio, Pat Kreitlow answers a listener’s question about the difference between billionaire Elon Musk backing Brad Schimel in the state Supreme Court race and billionaire George Soros backing Susan Crawford. The answer gets to the heart of whether any one super-rich business owner should be able to try to purchase justices to sway cases toward their own businesses and profits.
After that, on Matenaer On Air, the show speaks with Dave Wilde who suffers from MS, as well as Autism and he shares his story of receiving Medicare and Medicaid benefits and the shameful way he, along with others, were treated to get those benefits. He also speaks on how difficult some states make it to receive benefits and sometimes in embarrassing and borderline dehumanizing fashions.
Last for this hour, Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project joins the Todd Allbaugh Show to discuss the effects that Trump's tariffs will have on Wisconsinites. A mind-boggling 10% of Wisconsin jobs will be directly impacted, and 77% of those folks voted for Trump. What do they get? A big middle finger.
