Tony Evers and a parade of Wisconsinites testifying at Joint Finance Committee hearings. Help for childcare? Gone. Help with children being poisoned by lead paint or water lines? Gone.

The deadline to get a REAL ID is this week, but more than a million Wisconsinites don't have it yet. The Trump administration's tariffs are expected to make solar energy systems more expensive. And, the saga of the Milwaukee boat continues. We'll have the latest on the efforts to remove it.

Plus, cooler than expected encounters with "Steve Harrington" aka Joe Keery, Rob Thomas and the ViCON ROBERT SMITH (downing Goldschlager shots!). We play WTF and learn that Wisconsinites are crafter than we thought. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

if you look around at houses, schools, churches--you're probably seeing more and more solar panels on their rooftops. A lot of that is thanks to federal incentives through the Inflation Reduction Act that make solar more affordable. But those programs are now at risk of being cut, and tariffs could be pushing the low solar costs we've been seeing much higher. Fortunately, solar has a pretty determined advocate who's spreading the word about how solar works for Wisconsin.

Writer McKenna Scherer is a proud Wisconsinite. Sure, that love is tied to cheese and Spotted Cow. But at the root of that love is her family. Scherer shared a story, “The Largest Gathering of Norwegians in Northwestern Wisconsin, Probably: Gierefest,” at a live storytelling event hosted by Wisconsin Public Radio’s “Wisconsin Life” and the Chippewa Valley Writers Guild. It was held on Nov. 14, 2024 in Eau Claire at The Lakely.

Wednesday was ‘Liberation Day' in Trump's America. For everyone else, it was a day of sheer economic panic, as President Donald Trump unveiled heavy 'reciprocal' tariffs on dozens of countries, on top of a 10 percent blanket tariff on all imports. Trump billed it all as a fool-proof strategy to bring back American jobs that have moved overseas, and said specifically the levies would be a boon for unionized workers at domestic car companies. But Trump is no friend to unionized labor. He's spent the days since his inauguration slashing thousands of unionized government jobs. Everett Kelley, national president of the American Federation of Government Employees, talks about how unions are fighting back.And in headlines: Wisconsinites gave Elon Musk the middle finger by sending a liberal judge to their state Supreme Court, a federal judge dismissed corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, and Amazon makes an eleventh-hour bid to buy TikTok.Show Notes:Learn more about the American Federation of Government Employees – www.afge.org/Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

The Rich Dickman Show Episode 295 - One Punch Mantis! Get ready for another dose of unhinged hilarity with Rem, Cody, Ray, and Randy on The Rich Dickman Show Episode 295! This week's episode kicks off with some truly bizarre opening banter, including discussions about Randy's weight loss and bowel movements, the definition of "chickencock" bourbon and the alpha dynamics of various species (including the mighty mantis shrimp!), questionable sheep anatomy, and Ray's utterly chaotic trip to the vet with his dog Charlie. Plus, hear about sleep apnea devices, tornado scares, and the ethics of being a single parent after a hypothetical tragedy. This week, the guys dive deep into your problems with Thinking with your Dickman: Should a conflicted Wisconsinite choose the Green Bay Packers opening day game or the famous Cheese Curd Festival? What to do when your unwavering love for repeating Leonard Skynyrd's "Simple Man" drives everyone else insane? A listener with an out-of-this-world gambling problem seeks new and increasingly absurd things to bet on. Cody then delivers a crucial message in Cody Reads Copy about the secure messaging app Signal. The much-anticipated Dick of the Week segment features a rogues' gallery of questionable behavior: A Hawaii road rage incident that got physical. A terrifying incident in the UK where 50-60 youths, possibly armed with knives, disrupted a birthday party. A shocking hospital altercation in Malta where a nurse was stabbed. And the personal tragedy of a thwarted milkshake craving at The United Dairy Farmers Gas station due to a lack of bananas (or fasting rules!). Next up, the hosts tackle some truly perplexing Dickman Dilemmas: The agonizing choice of a Celebrity Punch Pass – one free punch with no immediate consequences, but payback is a certainty. The bizarre conundrum of a Talking Foot Fungus Fiasco offering stock tips with a strange sartorial demand. And the ultimate moral quandary: the temptation of a Doomsday Tweet for a billion likes. The creative sparks fly in What Would Jesus Draw, where the theme is Jesus on a farm doing a farm thing in front of someone: Cody envisions Jesus hilariously poking a scarecrow with a pitchfork. Rem takes us to a galaxy far, far away with Jesus alongside Luke Skywalker on Tatooine, fixing an evaporator. Randy brings the agricultural artistry with Jesus driving a combine and (potentially) making a crop circle with Fred. Ray delivers a truly unforgettable image of Jesus delivering a calf in front of a bewildered Sarah Palin. Tune in to find out who takes home the coveted (or dreaded) Dick of the Week title and whose Jesus drawing reigns supreme!

Political analyst Steve Cortes discusses the significance of the April 2025 Wisconsin Supreme Court election and a voter ID referendum. The Supreme Court race is tied, with 87% of Wisconsinites supporting voter ID. Steve Cortes highlights Susan Crawford's opposition to voter ID and her potential impact on future elections, including redistricting. The Catholic vote, crucial in Wisconsin, could sway the outcome. Elon Musk's efforts in Wisconsin are noted for raising awareness. Additional interview with Randy Fine, a candidate in a battle in Florida, gives John an update on his campaign and shares his perspective on outside money coming into play in his race. Finally, Caleb Burns discusses the potential landmark case of United States v. Alexander Sittenfeld, a city councilman accused of accepting a campaign contribution in exchange for a vote on a development project. Despite Sittenfeld's denial of corrupt intent, he was convicted based on inferences. The case highlights concerns about the weaponization and criminalization of politics, the FBI's role in entrapment, and the federalization of state crimes through the Hobbs Act.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The fast-approaching Wisconsin Supreme Court election isn't just a local squabble, it really is a national tipping point. On April 1st, Wisconsin will choose between Common Sense Judicial Review with Brad Shimmel or Radical Leftism with Susan Crawford. Why is this matter? Well, it shapes America's future, A Crawford win. Let's liberals redraw Congressional maps costing Republicans to house seats and guts. Their majority. Democrats know their power now comes from radical judges, not elected politicians. This race means everything to Democrats lose this, and believe me, they'll do all they can to kill Trump's agenda, including his efforts to deport violent illegals, stopping fraud, tax cuts, and Doge. We've seen activist courts Ram through gerrymandering and Dropbox scams, ex posts tell the story. Shimmel is the firewall, judicial sanity, voter id. America first. Wisconsin decides America's fate. Early voting is underway now Wisconsinites vote today, like our country depends on it because it does.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey hey BATT Family! We hope you've taken the time to check out our Kickstarter preview content that we've gotten to release recently, we've been really enjoying playing everything to support some folks. Regardless, on this episode we talk game balance and why it matters, play a game that Mark hated in 2021 and unintentionally played again for this episode, and managed to weirdly cross over on too many things in the other segments.

I don't particularly care for them, but you better believe I learned how to make them like a master to ingratiate myself to him when Natalie and I started dating.  2) During Hardback, Scott says Single Player Solitaire. He naturally meant Multi-Player Solitaire, but that's the type of stuff you get when you record without scripts. 3) Sorry for needing to use a prop in the explanation of the Marrek Murders, but it was far simpler to have Scott understand while looking at it. If you'd like to see more of what I'm talking about, there's a decent photo someone put up on BGG that'll help you get this. https://boardgamegeek.com/image/8675978/final-girl-the-marrek-murders 4) I know the point that I was trying to make when I clearly get flustered and frustrated (flustrated?) when talking about Dice Throne's complexity, but I do find it funny while editing it that I couldn't even keep a straight thought because I was so annoyed. 5) I didn't mean to take over Scott's Surprise Party entry, but that mostly came out like that in the edit. We were recording late one night and Scott was flagging pretty hard at that point. So I came in with my opinions to keep the conversation moving and see what we could prompt out of him. 6) Apparently this was prop night for me. This is why Scott keeps saying we need to add video. If that does happen, that's more reason of why I need an editor.  --- You can email us at boardallthetimegaming@gmail.com.

The Wisconsin State Climatology Office and the National Weather Service are calling on residents to become citizen scientists. Throughout March and beyond, Wisconsinites can help by becoming official rainfall reporters and weather observers. "This is a fun activity, especially if you are a weather enthusiast or even if you just want to learn more about the weather," says Sarah Marquardt the Senior Service Hydrologist and Meteorologist with the National Weather Service out of Milwaukee. One of the best ways to contribute is through the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow Network, also known as CoCoRaHS. Volunteers measure daily precipitation using official rain gauges and submit their data online. Becoming a weather observer is easy and does not require daily reports. Volunteers can submit data when available, and the process only takes a few minutes. Training and resources are available at www.cocorahs.org.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Wisconsin State Climatology Office and the National Weather Service are calling on residents to become citizen scientists. Throughout March and beyond, Wisconsinites can help by becoming official rainfall reporters and weather observers. “We want everyone to take part in collecting weather data,” said Bridget Mason, Assistant State Climatologist. “Your observations help provide a clearer picture of local weather patterns across Wisconsin.” One of the best ways to contribute is through the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow Network, also known as CoCoRaHS. Volunteers measure daily precipitation using official rain gauges and submit their data online. Becoming a weather observer is easy and does not require daily reports. Volunteers can submit data when available, and the process only takes a few minutes. Training and resources are available at www.cocorahs.org.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two years ago, Wisconsin started expanding its mesonet - a network of weather stations across the state to track valuable forecast and soil data. Chris Kucharik is a professor of plant and agroecosystem sciences at UW-Madison leading the expansion of what's called Wisconet thanks to dollars from the USDA and the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation. He tells Stephanie Hoff that they plan to have about 80 weather stations placed around the state before the end of the year, with at least one in every county. He gives us a status report, including how the weather and soil data has already helped alert Wisconsinites of stormy weather. More measurable rain in the forecast for today according to Stu Muck.

In an age of overwhelmingly dumb AI that is constantly shoved in our faces, it's nice to remember a time when we still thought AI and robotics had a chance to make our lives better. In 1999, author and futurist Ray Kurzweil wrote a book called "The Age of Spiritual Machines", in which he predicts AI reaching a point where it has it's own consciousness. In this future, AI will have already cured disease and improved the human condition, but as it grows in sentience and gains rights, humanity (as we know it) slowly becomes obsolete. This isn't portrayed as a bad thing as much as just a new step in evolution with artificial life gaining spirituality... But after reading Kurzweil's book, Our Lady Peace took issue with a few things. In their 2000 album, "Spiritual Machines", they take on the complicated nature of humanity, exploring experiences that are uniquely human, such as having an out of body experience, or gaining wisdom out of negative life experiences. There's a lot of great thoughts in the album and they don't sound half bad to boot!Aaaaand for today's guest for this Canadian alt rock group is a Canadian (in her own right), Danielle MacQuarrie!!!
