Silly Political Games With Dire Consequences (Hour 1)
It’s a busy news day in Wisconsin! Following a story from WisPolitics, yesterday, the state senate adjourned immediately after voting on a veto override, cutting off Democratic objections. Ultimately, the entire session was pointless, as state Republicans are two votes short of the required amount to override a veto. Todd, Pat and Trygve discuss the implications of these silly partisan games.
After that, Todd and Trygve talk about the autocratic chaos being experienced around the world. From Russia to Donald Trump, we must remember to hold on tightly to the truth.
It appears like Joe Biden and Donald Trump are going to duke it out in a presidential debate. As an expert on political campaigns and debates, Trygve takes your questions on what to expect.
Wrapping up today’s first hour, Todd and Trygve reflect on comments by the head of the White House situation room on the January 6th Capitol riot.

Weekly Best of Todd Allbaugh Show for May 4
On Protests And Responsible Journalism:
Protests over the war in Gaza have come to a head at UW Madison. Is it comparable to what’s happening at Columbia University, or is it being blown out of proportion on the news and social media? We welcome Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project to discuss their perspective on news coverage of protests.
While Pat focuses on the journalism side, Trygve delves deeper into the politics of these protests. He and Todd believe that it is shortsighted to vote against “Genocide Joe.” If people believe that President Biden is mismanaging the situation, they should imagine what would happen with Trump in charge. Donald Trump has explicitly said he would encourage Russia to “do whatever the hell they want.” He would offer a blank check to Israel. Joe Biden is the only sane choice on this and many other issues.

Get Up And Support Wisconsin Schools! (Hour 1)
Last night, State Senator Kelda Roys and Representative Katrina Shankland held a public forum in Muscoda on the string of two-year UW campus closures.

Will this reignite the Wisconsin idea in the hearts of the people and our legislature? Our usual Wednesday guests, Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project, provide their analysis on this attack on education.

United, Wisconsin Stands (Hour 2)
This hour wraps up our tour around the state. We’ve seen a lot of what makes our state fantastic, and we take some more of your calls on Wisconsin.
Aaron’s board game of the week is perhaps one of the greatest and most influential games of all time. Created in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, Dungeons and Dragons is synonymous with the tabletop roleplaying game genre. Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson merged their love of miniature wargaming with their desire to explore fantasy worlds, and the rest is history. D&D is part of what makes Wisconsin great, and if you haven’t played it, I urge you to get some friends together and try out the free rules online.
Tonight, Friday, April fifth, you can join Todd and Trygve from 6:00-7:30 pm at 1919 Pub in Lambeau Field. The first round of beer and cheese curds is on them!
