And, we've got our weekly football preview.
Oct 22, 20261h 41m
Mark Belling Podcast #180: France is proof: no matter how much you give leftists, it is never enough. That's the question facing Wisconsin and America in the current election: do we turn over our state and nation to radicals for whom the giveaways and leniency will never be enough for them? The Brewers try to sort through the Timeless Ticket mess as World Series prices for games here have gone through the AmFam roof.

Oct 21, 20261h 16m

Oct 12, 20261h 14m
Mark Belling Podcast #175: Regardless of your position of AI and data centers, one thing is becoming very clear: the buildout of these centers is producing a massive American economic boom that will enrich many in the middle class. On the other hand, the affordability crisis is real and David Crowley's insane level of taxing will make it worse if he gets to run the whole state. And, the continuing slide of Nike is the ultimate example of Go Woke, Go Broke.
Oct 8, 20261h 29m
Mark Belling Podcast #174: Mark uses the case of a local bleeding heart judge to demonstrate how electing a Democrat governor makes the state far less safe because every judicial vacancy in Wisconsin is filled by a Governor appointment and Democrats only name soft on crime judges.

Sep 30, 20261h 19m
Mark Belling Podcast #170: A great reckoning is coming for the big universities that promote Marxism and crank out useless doctorates (I'm looking at you, UW-Madison).

Sep 28, 20261h 34m

(The answer may surprise you)

Sep 16, 20261h 13m

Sep 7, 20261h 0m
Mark Belling Podcast #160: Here's the real corruption in Wisconsin elections—--clerks and other election officials refusing to follow the rules.
