Cheesehead lefties are pieces of work. I've been living up here for about a year now and so enjoy listening to the "Wisconsin Ideas Network" in the morning with Joy(less) Cardin and Kathleen (Repubs) Dunn (us wrong).
If you hadn't had the pleasure their shows are like an audio DU--left-leaning subject matter with cheeseheads calling in questions and comments. Then at 11 Larry Meiller comes on to tell us how keep our begonias perky. It's all pretty dry but for some reason I find it completely hilarious and giggle thru it all morning.
On the weekend I always have to tune in Jeane Feraca "Here on (cheesehead) Earth." She started one show "The Siberian whooping crane has been changing migration patterns with increasing alacrity, worrying some that this magnificent bird is flying toward extinction. Today on "Here on (cheesehead) Earth" we'll study the problems with Ivan Leftinsky, the world's preeminent expert on the Siberian whooping crane."
You can't make this stuff up.
Kathleen Dunn used to be on WTMJ - believe it or not.
She's as loony in person as on air.
Wisconsin Public Radio? For amateurs! (Although Jean Feracca HAS sent me racing for the "off" switch on more than one occasion. But only on her poetry programs.)
No, you haven't really been mentally soiled until you've listened to WORT in Madison, "Community back-porch radio."
They are so left, they're not even "progressive" any more.
Great music on Saturdays, though....
I don't know where in WI you live, but if you are in the south-eastern part, try changing your radio dial to WIND, Chicago -- 560 on the AM dial. THere you can listen to laura Ingraham, Michael Medved, Dennis Prager, & Michael Savage. Early AM is held down by Bill Bennett. Any of them provide more interesting fare than the Wisconsin Public Radio stations that come out of Madison and Milwaukee.
