Wisconsin state Sen. Brad Pfaff in studio talking brandy old fashioned as the state drink, the fight over helping with childcare and the Senate not confirming Gov. Tony Evers’ appointees.
Began the show there, with the appointees, as Pfaff has personal experience in that he was fired as the state’s ag. secretary after 11 months on the job because Republicans didn’t like that he said the state should release funding for farmers’ mental health.
After that, we hit on the ins and outs of having the brandy old fashioned as the state drink. This comes a year after we debated a state cheese.
Spent the bottom half of the show, first, talking about the US House of Representatives and why Pfaff chose not to run.
Then we dove into the debate in Wisconsin to subsidize child care and what Republicans in the Senate have proposed.
