In a WIAA Division 1 state quarterfinal, Appleton North took on Stevens Point. Appleton North defeated Stevens Point 10-3. Gary Brilowski and Dean Birling had the call. 

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit jimhightower.substack.comLast week, Hightower and I sat down for a couple beers with author Cory Haala, who's just released When Democrats Won the Heartland and who is a professor at the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point. Cory has brilliantly documented how, as the national Democratic Party moved towards corporate cash in the 1980s, maverick politicians throughout the Midwest and Plains states practiced good ol' fashioned populism—and won. Not only did they win, but they also executed on the policies that they had championed while campaigning. Imagine that! With Hightower being part of the coalition of Texas populists who took the 1980s by storm, and who traveled to the northern states Cory covers to campaign, speechify and rally the grassroots, he's featured prominently throughout the book. My favorite Hightower highlight comes right in the introduction:Rather than give a handout, they believed the role of government was to give a hand up. Put more bluntly by Texas Agriculture Commissioner Jim Hightower: “If we'd have been liberals,” discussing struggling watermelon growers in Texas, “we'd have retrained them to do something else. As populists, we changed the market structure that was f***ing them over. That's the difference.”Paid subscribers can watch the whole video above, and also read an excerpt of Cory's book below. Enjoy!

Sarah Agena is the only registered dietitian in Stevens Point who doesn't work inside a hospital. That changes what she can actually tell you.This week on the Point Forward Podcast, we get into protein, Ozempic, what active women between 35 and 55 are getting catastrophically wrong, and the nutrition belief Sarah would throw out tomorrow if she could.

Episode 100. We didn't plan on doing a podcast -- we planned on staying connected to a community we care about during a time when it would have been easy to go quiet. That decision turned into a hundred conversations with coaches, healthcare providers, community leaders, and patients who had something worth hearing.In this episode, John reflects on what a hundred episodes actually taught him about Stevens Point

It won't be long before Wisconsin roadways will have some large, heavy equipment heading to the fields. Safety has to be a paramount concern for the farmers operating it, and the drivers sharing the road. Kiley Allan gets a refresher course on what to remember from WI State Trooper. Warmer temps are coming to Wisconsin from Canada. Stu Muck says there's still a chance for rain in the forecast, and for people farther north - possible snow again. Farmers are preparing to head to the fields for spring planting. Once that seed is out of the bag and in the ground - they're committed. But what happens if their agribusiness partner, which was going to buy that product closes or goes bankrupt before the harvest? What's their recourse? Stephanie Hoff talks with Randy Fleishauer of Plover River Farms, Stevens Point. He currently sits on DATCP's Producer Security Council which is designed to deal with that dilemma, if it happens. Fleishauer says losing a specialty crop processor disrupts the essential rotation needed for potatoes; without a "place to go" with secondary crops, growers cannot maintain soil health or yield. Unlike row crops like corn or soybeans, canning crops are "timely" and cannot be stored on-farm. If a processor can’t take them, the crop is often disced back into the dirt or sold as cattle feed. And potato growers have limited on-farm storage. A shift in crop types forces local fertilizer and equipment suppliers to pivot their entire inventory, often driving up costs for the grower due to last-minute supply chain demands. Fleishauer site the Del Monte bankruptcy last summer as an example of when this council comes into play. The first crop progress report for 2026 was released on Monday. Pam Jahnke reports that moisture situations look adequate statewide. Only about 2% of oats have been seeded so far. Corn and soybeans have decoupled from the Iran War in the marketplace. John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing in West Bend says that's lessened the swings on prices. Triggers are still out there with crude oil until June, when there appears to be a "break". Heinberg also notes that live cattle prices continue to climb. Drier conditions in the west put critical grazing land in question for many cow/calf operators.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A brilliant physician risks his own life to force open the border between body and soul, determined to correct what he believes nature has failed to complete. When the experiment ends and only one flame returns, his assistant must decide whether to protect a dangerous legacy—or let it rise again in a new form. The Ultimate Problem by Victor Rousseau. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Victor Rousseau joins us on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast for the first time today.Born in Belgium in 1879, Rousseau was educated in Europe before emigrating to the United States as a young man. He eventually settled in New York, where he moved from journalism and translation work into fiction. Like many early pulp writers, he didn't begin in science fiction alone. He wrote adventure stories, historical fiction, and romances, building a reputation for fast-paced storytelling long before the science fiction boom fully took shape.Rousseau became a regular presence in magazines, Adventure, Argosy, and later Weird Tales. Over the course of his career, Rousseau wrote dozens of novels and a large body of short fiction across multiple genres. In science fiction alone, he produced almost 100 short stories and several novels, most of them in the 1920s and 30s.The Ultimate Problem appeared in U.S. newspapers in 1911. We found it in the Stevens Point Journal of Stevens Point, Wisconsin, on Friday, March 3, 1911, published under Victor Rousseau's H. M. Egbert byline.Sixteen years later it was published in the July 1927 issue of Weird Tales Magazine on page 77, The Ultimate Problem by Victor Rousseau…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, He wanted to look beyond time and prove that history was still alive, waiting in hidden dimensions. What answered him from those angles was patient, hungry, and already on his scent.

"  Think of it as a wild Midwestern version of the MIT mystery hunt  for a slightly different crowd where people drink quite a bit more." For three whole days, over 10,000 trivia challengers descend on the tiny town of Stevens Point, Wisconsin, for The World's Largest Trivia Contest. The contest runs on the local college radio station at the University of Wisconsin- Stevens Point for 54 hours straight, asking eight questions per hour. Teams have only the length of two radio songs to call in their answer. Yup, that's right. You call into the radio, old school style. It's a madcap frenzy of teams frantically searching through bins of catalogued items spanning from cereal boxes to DVD covers, or racking their brains to remember an obscure cartoon reference. For 43 years Jim “Oz” Oliva was ringmaster of this trivia circus. He wrote most of the questions and organized the contest. Jim revels in finding the most obscure bits of trivia to throw at his players. In response, teams have amassed entire rooms filled with snack packaging, atlases, and the booklets from CDs, among other items. With the advent of the internet, Jim had to change how he formatted the questions to stay ahead of searchable keywords. You can hear the glee in Jim's voice when he talks about all the techniques he devised to outmaneuver trivia players. He even had to hold onto all of the garbage from the question writing room otherwise players have been known to go through the trash, attempting to gain an edge over the competition. Jim is blunt, funny, and mischievous. I really enjoyed hearing all his stories from his many years of running this crazy trivia contest and learning about the wild culture surrounding it. In our Bonus Aftershow, REA contributers Heather Burns and Theresa Piazza join us to share their perspective on the trivia contest. Heather has been involved in the trivia contest for over 20 years, and Theresa joined Heather for the first time last year. It was wild to hear all about how they prepare for three crazy days of trivia with a revolving door of team members marshalling to rifle through bins of material and sleeping in shifts.

Ever wondered how your backyard rain gauge could help improve weather forecasts and even assist farmers? The National Weather Service is calling on Wisconsin residents to join the CoCoRaHS Network (Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow Network) through their Rain Gauge Rally. This volunteer network of dedicated weather watchers records rainfall, snowfall, and drought conditions right from their own backyards. Whether you're a farmer, teacher, or just fascinated by the weather, your observations can make a big impact. Michelle Margraf, Observation Program Leader with the National Weather Service, says Wisconsin volunteers are already playing a key role — and now there’s a friendly rivalry with Minnesota to recruit even more observers. Your reports could be the difference-maker! Currently, about 26,000 CoCoRaHS observers share data nationwide, including several hundred in Wisconsin. However, more volunteers are needed, particularly in rural areas. Central and northern Wisconsin, including regions between Stevens Point and Eau Claire, as well as north of Wausau, have a greater need for participants. To join the network, visit www.cocorahs.org.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Get ready for a bone-chilling dive into Wisconsin's haunted history as Host Lyle Perez explores ten of the state's most ghost-ridden locations. With Halloween just around the corner, it's the perfect time to delve into Wisconsin's eerie past, from luxury hotels and mysterious mansions to desolate cemeteries and asylums. Wisconsin may be known for its natural beauty and charming towns, but hidden within its landscapes are tales of spirits and lingering souls. So, sit back, turn off the lights, and join us as we journey into the haunted heart of the Badger State. Featured Locations: The Pfister Hotel, Milwaukee 424 E Wisconsin Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53202 Known for its luxury and Victorian charm, the Pfister Hotel is haunted by its original owner, Charles Pfister. Guests report lights flickering, electronics turning on and off, and shadowy figures roaming the ninth floor. Major League Baseball players who stay here have encountered unexplained furniture rearrangements and disembodied footsteps. It seems Charles Pfister is as watchful over his hotel in the afterlife as he was in life. Summerwind Mansion, Land O' Lakes West Bay Lake, Land O' Lakes, WI 54540 Once an opulent estate, Summerwind Mansion is a haunting ruin where spirits are said to linger despite a fire that destroyed the building in 1988.

On today's episode, I talk to musician and academic Dylan Bizhikiins Jennings. Originally from Stevens Point, WI, Dylan is an enrolled member of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe. As an academic, he received his Masters from the University of Wisconsin-Madison Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies and is currently completing his PhD. He's also on the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board and is associate director of the Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute at Northland College. As a musician, Dylan began singing at pow-wows when he was a kid, in drum groups like Midnite Express and IronBoy, with fellow singer Joe Rainey. But it wasn't until 2015, when he and Joe were given free reign to do what they wanted at the Eaux Claires Festival that Bizhiki was born. Their first album Unbound was just released on Jagjaguwar in July, and folks, it's great! This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, follow me on Twitter.

We are two months away from the November 5th election and campaigns are charging full speed ahead. Robert debriefs Tim Walz's speech at LaborFest in Milwaukee this Monday and we discuss how Walz's governing record in Minnesota can be a blueprint for Wisconsin Democrats, including a BadgerCare Public Option, paid family leave, a child tax credit, and affordable child care. We encourage our listeners to make next Tuesday a Day of Democracy by joining us for a 5pm – 7:45pm phone bank for Vinnie Miresse, a progressive state legislative candidate in Stevens Point and watch the Presidential debate after the phone bank We review the fallout from a disgusting Republican ad that falsely blames Senator Tammy Baldwin for the killing of 6 Waukesha parade goers in 2021, re-traumatizing Waukesha residents. The ad was condemned by the Waukesha mayor. President Biden announced almost $600M for Dairyland Power Cooperative clean energy projects. It's one of 16 rural electric cooperatives receiving a total of $7.3 billion for renewable energy projects funded by the Inflation Reduction Act. We talk about how the battle for the State Legislature this November is about taking on powerful private interests like CAFO operators and school privatizers.

In the sweet Venusian spring, when iridescent butterflies swarmed and deer-things scampered, it was both necessary and good for Richard Farris to kill George Pearce. The Venus Evil by Chester S. Geier, that's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Another day, another author making his debut on our podcast. Chester S. Geier. He was born in 1921 in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. He wrote about 80 short stories, more than half of them in the 1940s. His first paid published story was, A Length of Rope, in 1941 and his last short story, The Astral Exile, was published in 1953. We know very little about him but we know that he was deaf from the age of twelve.And I know that I love this story. It was published in the summer of 1947 about the time of the Roswell incident in Roswell, New Mexico. To this day some believe that an extraterrestrial spacecraft crash landed near Roswell and that aliens were aboard the spaceship. From Planet Stories Magazine in the Summer of 1947 turn to page 68, The Venus Evil by Chester S. Geier…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Mercury had no atmosphere—everyone knew that.

In this 225th Episode of the Small Scale Life Podcast, I recorded a video and audio while I was IN the garden, so this is truly a garden chat with your lovable host Tom.  In this episode, I discuss the garden build project including the fencing, the border, mulch, gates, Wicking Bed Planters and Hybrid Rain Gutter Grow System Planters.  I talk about cabbage worms eating my broccoli, how my peppers really stink this year and how my tomatoes, zucchini and basil are stars of the garden.  Towards the very end of the episode, I talk about Driftless Oaks Farm and provide some advice about where to buy land or a homestead based on our own experience at Driftless Oaks Farm.  While it didn't work out as expected for us, it might be different for you.  I would highly recommend that you think long and hard and look long and closely at any property before purchasing it.  We got caught up in the idea and excitement, and fortunately the gods smiled upon us. While we podcasting types typically obsess about audio quality, there is something neat about this recording.  It is imperfect: there are chickadees chirping, the green heron squawking, planes flying, traffic driving by, Julie talking to a friend, kids chattering as they walk down the street in front of our house and a passing train heading from the Twin Cities to Stevens Point, Wisconsin.   This is life in a small town in America in 2024.  This is how it should be.  We are part of this community, and these things are just part of our life here now.  We can be perfectly imperfect because that is what we are. And that, my friends, is a GOOD thing.

A 3-4 West Coast road trip doesn't sound too bad, but the Brewers pitching staff continues to take on water; just what solutions can the Brewers muster to stay afloat through the final three-plus months? Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss the surging Tobias Myers, the return of Freddy Peralta but the question marks elsewhere on the staff, including in the bullpen. William Contreras has been struggling for a month, leading JR to invoke a comparison to the dreaded 2014 season. Sal Frelick saved the day with an unforgettable catch, but is he the leading candidate to go down to Nashville if and when Garrett Mitchell returns? What's the deal with one highly regarded modern statistic regarding the home-run saving leap as ... routine? Plus, discussion on Jackson Chourio's sprint speed and continued improvement, a Brice Turang grand slam and Remembrew When goes back in time to a legendary moment in Milwaukee from the late Willie Mays. Curt Blanche then questions if the Brewers are limiting how much they can get out of one of their best players. Then, JR is joined by Lee Kluck (1:05:00), who wrote the new book "Leave While the Party's Good: The Life and Legacy of Baseball Executive Harry Dalton." Dalton, a former Brewers general manager, led the franchise to its first brush with greatness, including the 1982 World Series. What made him a compelling topic and what did the Stevens Point native learn in writing the book? Musical cues (in order of use): "Strobes" by Epocha, "Ricketts Glenn" by Roy Williams and "Rock is Back" by Got Happy. Royalty-free music available at EpidemicSound.com.

Wisconsin's thoroughfares are steeped in paranormal legend, often times having multiple roads being named in the nation's "Most Haunted" directories. Murder victims, bloody brides, phantom cars, family tragedies, and lynched witches all make up some of the colorful stories of our highways, byways, and bridges, some having endured for many generations, others having been born of more recent events. Scott and Mickey discuss a number of these legendary haunted roads, attempting to locate possible origins of the legends and the meanings behind them, while understanding that some of these are stories born from actual events, lived by real people, and deserve to be looked at a little more respectfully than maybe they have been up to now.  In the opening banter, we discuss several updates to previous cases, as well as the beginnings of a larger project we hope you join us in participating in.
