What Makes Seattle Great: The Wisconsin Connection! (Hour 1)
Today, Todd comes to us live from Buckley’s on Queen Anne in Seattle, Washington! Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project joins him there as they prepare to watch the Packers take on the Seahawks this Sunday. Todd and Trygve also welcome Rachel Perry, General Manager of Buckley’s Pubs, to the program! Buckley’s is the official Packers bar of Seattle, and Rachel is gracious enough to allow us to host the show there.
At the bottom of the hour, our friend Dr. Kristin Lyerly joins us between patients to talk about the state of healthcare and insurance in America. Both doctors and patients have been suffering for decades under the current system, and the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has brought the issue to a head. Todd, Trygve and Dr. Lyerly discuss what we may be able to do to enact change without violence. This complicated issue won’t be solved overnight, but we have to start somewhere. Ending on a lighter note, Dr. Lyerly gives us her predictions for the Packers game.

GOP Reps Are Neglecting Child Abuse Survivors (Hour 1)
It’s Wednesday, and that means a visit from Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project! Todd reads from an article in Mother Jones about concerning cuts to programs that help child abuse survivors. This is not hypothetical, and it’s having real impact right here in our state. Politicians like Tom Tiffany are putting corporate interests over taking care of abused children in Hayward, and we must remember this next time he’s up for reelection.
After that discussion, Todd and Trygve answer questions from listeners about what may happen under President-elect Trump. Between cabinet picks, mass deportation and terminating constitutional amendments, we will have to wait and see how it all pans out.
Join us on Friday as Todd and Trygve broadcast from Seattle in preparation for Sunday’s Packers game!

How Not To Smuggle A Turkey with Trygve Olson (Hour 1)
Happy Thanksgiving Eve! Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project join Todd to talk about Thanksgiving traditions. They also provide a roadmap for navigating difficult conversations with your family this holiday season. Political disagreements don’t have to divide your family, but that doesn’t mean you have to stand for verbal abuse or compromise your own beliefs. Trygve’s work around Europe fighting authoritarianism gives him unique experience in guiding people with extreme beliefs back towards reality. The key is to listen and gently point out the contradictions between what they believe in their personal lives and what they advocate for politically. You’re never going to shame someone into changing their mind, but you can help them to discover the truth themselves.

Trygve Olson sticks with us for a few extra minutes to address the reality of the situation. He also conveys an important message: you can’t shame people into changing their minds on something.
For today’s edition of What’s Worse, Todd asks if you dread doctor visits or loathe dental appointments.
At the bottom of the hour, Todd brings us some positive news for prospective college students in rural Wisconsin.
