Before we start, I want togive a shout out to a local law
(00:20):
enforcement agent. They were in anunmarked vehicle this morning as I entered onto
the belt Line from the interstate.They actually had the radar gun out and
trying to enforce the speed limit.So thank you whoever that was. Who's
I We're gonna hang out. We'regoing to hang up in that person because
we're in the middle of a segment. All right, let's keep rolling here.
That could have been the call,that could have been, That could
(00:42):
have been right too late. Now, I've been noticing actually a lot more
radar guns on the belt Line thatI have. Yeah, the past couple
of months, I've been seeing themout there a lot more than over the
winter and into the spring. SoI was just so happy this morning.
Thank you. You're a geek.That makes you happy. Kamala Harris making
(01:03):
a campaign stop earlier this afternoon inMilwaukee. Yesterday, the Democratic Party of
Wisconsin gave its official endorsement, asdid Governor Tony evers us Senator Tammy Baldwin.
Her campaign has just been picking upsteam. I tell you what,
she raked in more than one hundredmillion dollars between Sunday afternoon and last night.
Isn't that a record? That's right, It's right. It's a record
(01:26):
saying. You know, mister Trumpdoesn't like to be beaten at anything,
so he's probably saying, hold mybeer, I'm good at Well, he
doesn't drink, I hold my coke. But one hundred million dollars, that's
that's pretty impressive. I used toagain circle back to the fact, I'd
like, there's something wrong with ourpolitical system that we're allowing all this money
(01:46):
in it and influenced us. Butthat's a much bigger discussion. Yeah,
I apologize. Campaign finance reform isnever sexy to talk about, is it,
especially? Yeah, I know what. US Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatah
has resigned. She had faced mountingpressure from both sides to step down following
that assassination attempt. To former PresidentTrump earlier this month. Now yesterday,
(02:10):
she did testify before Congress, andit did her more harm than good.
She managed to piss off both sidesof a political aisle. She failed to
provide any real answers to their questions. I shouldn't laugh because someone died over
this, you know, failed assassination. That hearing was just you wanted to
pull your hair out. And it'slike, why did she even agree to
(02:31):
take part? Maybe she worried she'dget subpoenut. I understand in the beginning
of an investigation, there's not muchyou can say. But this isn't like
we have a suspect that they're they'rebuilding a case against the gunman's dead,
right, And she really she didn'tsay anything. So two people killed in
a fiery plane crash near Oshkosh yesterday, the first day of the annual EAA
(02:53):
Air Venture. Yeah, this typicallywe get some of these fatalities. No
word yet on where this plane wascoming from. Good news though, in
Lafaiatte County, a pilot escaped injuryafter their plane crashed in a field.
This happened late Sunday morning in thetown of Benton. The forty year old
pilot from Georgia was the only personon board, guessing they're on their way
to EAA. The Oscar Meyer wienermobile. One of them needs some work.
(03:17):
There was a crash yesterday morning inIllinois, Cook County, Illinois. The
twenty three foot iconic hot dog vehiclegot lost control rolled over onto the side
of another vehicle. Nobody was hurt. Now they have six wienermobiles that travel
the nation every year spreading the newsabout hot dogs. Just look for the
twenty four fier and it's always stillstill to this day, still, to
(03:43):
this day, I think it's there. I'm sorry. I get a thrill
when I see it. The otherday, I get a thrill when I
see twenty four inches. I wasturning it onto my highway going home.
It was coming down Highway twelve outsideof Middleton, you know, and it's
just like, yeah, I wasa guy. It was so cool,
especially how you could like go upto those and they'd hand you like those
(04:04):
little with our whistles. Yes,which also is kind of weird now I'm
going to think about things as anadult, but still, you know,
that was cool as a kid.It was so cool, awesome, It
was so cool and this is alot of people are gonna think this is
very cool. Badger fans, beerwine and Seltzer will be on the menu
this fall at Camp Randall. Finallywe don't have to sneak it in yep.
(04:25):
So the only two big ten teamsthat won't be selling any alcohol Northwestern
and Nebraska. Yeah. Northwestern's that'ssurprising, you know, because the IVY
they're so smart over there. ButNebraska kind of surprises me because I wonder
if George Clooney went to Northwestern.I know you're not a George Clining fan.
Do you see someone put them onblast yesterday from the View? I
(04:47):
just saw this headline pop up becauseyou know how he called for Joe Biden
to step down, and now thisperson of the Views like, all right,
you better pony up and write abig check. Uh huh. I
don't know. I don't know ifhe did give the endorsement to calm A.
I don't know if he shelled outcash. He he probably should have.
I think I don't watch the Vieweither. I saw that not on
(05:08):
my regular view. You know,for all the pop ups or blasts on
social media you see about the View, I don't watch it either. I
mean for a show that nobody saysthey watch, boy, they sure get
a lot of attention on social media, don't they. Oh, that was
kind of like Rush Limbaugh back inthe day. Nobody listened to that,
but everybody wanted to take him totask for things he used to say.
