One Year of Trump in Super Wet January

Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey opened the show marking one full year of President Donald Trump’s second term, inviting listeners to grade his performance and reacting to texts that touched on immigration, healthcare, and everyday impacts in Wisconsin. The conversation shifted to a major healthcare bill that passed Congress with bipartisan support during the show, with Kristin breaking down key provisions and listener concerns. Lighter but culturally revealing topics followed, including a debate over “stay-at-home sons,” Wisconsin’s relationship with alcohol during “Super Wet January,” and the social role of drinking. In the second hour, City Forward Collective executive director Colleston Morgan joined for “Forward Thinking” to unpack National School Choice Week, challenge misconceptions about school choice, and explain how families navigate Milwaukee’s complex education landscape. The show wrapped with listener engagement and community chatter, including talk of a possible Point Taken meet-and-greet at Wolski’s Tavern.
