Trygve Olson
Trump’s Crypto Grift Is Indeed A Grift (Hour 2)
Trygve Olson sticks around into our second hour as Todd asks us What’s Worse: snakes or skunks? We take your calls and texts!
At the bottom of the hour, Todd moves on to a topic he loves dearly: cryptocurrency. (That was sarcasm.) Remember Donald Trump’s “meme coin” that debuted this January? Well, according to NBC, a select 58 individuals have made tens of millions of dollars while 764,000 people have lost money.

Adams County Attempts To Overturn An Election (Hour 1)
It took a few tries, but we have finally reunited Pat Kreitlow of the conveniently-named morning drive time radio program Mornings with Pat Kreitlow and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project at our new time of 2-4 pm.
Right off the bat, Pat shares some news from the Capitol building in Madison. A hearing had to be adjourned due to disruptive behavior from Democrats. Pat, Todd, and Trygve agree that some decorum should be maintained, but some of our texters disagree.
In other Wisconsin news, according to WPR, the Adams County Board is attempting to overturn a legitimate election for their treasurer.

Evers vs. Trump: Showdown in Wisconsin
Governor Tony Evers stands firm against the Trump administration's Tom Holman, who criticized Evers' guidance to state employees on handling ICE agents. Evers, labeled as 'courageous' by many, rebuffs Holman, asserting he follows the law. Meanwhile, Wisconsin Republican Rep. Callahan calls for Evers' arrest, echoing Trump's aggressive tactics. Todd, along with guest Trygve Olson of the Lincoln Project, dissect the implications on democracy, highlighting a global autocratic vs. democratic battle. Amidst this chaos, the episode questions if America is veering towards autocracy, urging listeners to defend democratic values.

The Ongoing Legacy of Saturday Night Live (Hour 2)
This afternoon, Trygve Olson sticks around as Todd asks us What’s Worse: shaving or flossing? Neither are particularly enjoyable chores for most of us, so we take your calls and texts on which one stings more.

How Joe Zepecki Wants To Lead WI Democrats (Hour 1)
Today is our first show at our new time of 2-4 pm! Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project follows us into the mid-afternoon to share his unique perspective on the news of the day. Like Todd, he is a native Wisconsinite and former Republican. Unlike Todd, Trygve has worked in politics at all levels around the world, including presidential campaigns and battling authoritarianism in Eastern Europe. We ask Trygve about the developments of the Trump administration’s complete disregard of due process and rule of law.
At the bottom of the hour, we are visited by Democratic political operative Joe Zepecki of Zepecki Communications. Ben Wikler recently announced that he will not run for reelection as Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. Now, Zepecki is running to carry on the torch. He talks with Todd and Trygve about the ways he plans to build on Wikler’s legacy of success in our state.

United Wisconsin: What Is Fusion Voting? (Hour 1)
This Wednesday, Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project joins us via phone to share his perspective on President Trump’s deportations without due process. As more information becomes public, things are looking even worse for the rule of law in our country.
At the bottom of the hour, we talk with some folks from United Wisconsin about fusion voting. Former Republican State Senate Majority Leader Dale Schultz and former Democratic Dane County Sheriff Dave Mahoney come from very different political backgrounds, but they believe that Wisconsinites have more in common than we may realize. Much like ranked choice, fusion voting is a way to raise up less politically extreme candidates.

“When The Worst Of Times Bring Out The Best In People” (Hour 2)
This afternoon, Todd asks us What’s Worse: passive aggressive or aggressive? Trygve sticks around to give his take.
At the bottom of the hour, Madison-based filmmaker and renaissance man John Roach joins us to talk about his new documentary film, A Road at Night, that will be screened this Sunday at the Wisconsin Film Festival.

“Extremism Has Hit The Wall” with Dale Schultz (Hour 1)
Last night, Wisconsin elected Judge Susan Crawford to become our next state supreme court justice. Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project joins us to give his take on this election and what it means for Wisconsinites. There’s a national narrative that this election was a referendum on Elon Musk meddling in politics, but Trygve doesn’t believe this to be the sole factor that decided the outcome.
At the bottom of the hour, former Republican State Senate Majority Leader Dale Schultz joins Todd and Trygve to talk about the political moment we find ourselves in after yesterday’s election. Schultz believes that Wisconsinites are getting sick of how the Trump administration is mistreating our allies and veterans alike.

Every Vote Will Matter On April First (Hour 1)
It’s Wednesday, and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project is here to break down a flurry of Wisconsin news.
Firstly, UW-Eau Claire Chancellor Jim Schmidt is leaving his position to become the president of James Madison University in Virginia. This is a huge loss for education in our state, and yet another casualty of Jay Rothman’s continued gutting of UW-System.
Next up, Todd and Trygve discuss developments in Pete Hegseth’s Signal chat fiasco. Sharing classified military plans on a non-government app and lying about it is unacceptable. The people involved need to step down or be impeached.
At the bottom of the hour, we return to Wisconsin. Trygve shares some new poll numbers and what they mean for our state supreme court race. The two candidates are neck and neck, but higher turnout is statistically more likely to bring victory for Judge Susan Crawford over former Attorney General Brad Schimel.
