    1/29/26 10AM: What's Wrong with Men?
    Jan 29 2026
    Sherwin opens the show with a warning about protesting in the Trump era, arguing that the rules have changed and constitutional protections aren’t applied the same way during demonstrations. He cautions that showing up uninformed—or armed—can lead to serious consequences and urges protesters to understand the risks before acting. The phones open as callers weigh in. Later, Sherwin discusses the biological and developmental differences between boys and girls, the rise of NEAT men who are out of work and not dating, and how the growing education gap fuels many of America’s social problems. He closes by breaking down how the lack of trade education and poor reading foundations contribute to unemployment, particularly in the Black community.

    Jan 29 2026
    In Hour 3, Sherwin continues the conversation about the skill sets and academic levels needed to succeed in the trades, taking a few pointed detours along the way. He reflects on how conflict used to be handled with a sense of honor—and how today, too often, physical confrontations escalate into gun violence. The hour then turns serious as Sherwin breaks down alarming reading and math scores within Milwaukee Public Schools, arguing that the steady decline is not accidental but the result of long-standing institutionalized racism. Callers Derek and Al jump in with their own perspectives, adding tension, humor, and sharp commentary to the discussion. Sherwin wraps up the show by reacting to the YouTube chat and closing out the day’s conversations.

    Sherwin reacts to Donald Trump endorsing Tom Tiffany and asks a hard political question: can a Black candidate realistically win the race for governor in Wisconsin? He continues breaking down the dynamics of the governor’s race and what it means for voters across the state. The conversation then takes a sharp cultural turn as Sherwin challenges rigid ideas of masculinity—questioning why men dancing is often labeled as “gay” and sharing personal stories of going to gay clubs with his straight friends. Along the way, he connects culture to economics, explaining how poverty itself is profitable and how credit card companies target poor communities to keep the system running. It’s an hour that blends politics, money, and identity—uncomfortable for some, necessary for everyone.

    Jan 28 2026
    Hour 2 starts light with Valentine’s Day plans before Sherwin veers into a brutally honest conversation about masculinity, dating, and what it means when men are raised primarily by women. From the viral “bear vs. man” debate to why grown men wearing jerseys might be doing too much, nothing is off-limits. The hour takes a sharp turn into deeper territory as Sherwin connects mating, marriage, and monogamy to capitalism itself—arguing that the system benefits from keeping people locked into lifelong arrangements. He then pivots to Milwaukee’s housing crisis, claiming Democrats talk tough about the rich but fail to help the poor because once people escape poverty, they often flip politically. The hour wraps with talk of neighborhood redevelopment, a tense call from Bob that ends abruptly, and a follow-up call that has Sherwin questioning his entire day job. This hour is unpredictable, provocative, and exactly why people keep listening.

    1/28/26 11AM: Why Poverty Has to Exist
    Jan 28 2026
    In this hour, Sherwin pulls the curtain back on how poverty actually works in America—starting with a conversation about the Nobel Peace Prize that quickly turns into a raw breakdown of why capitalism requires poor people to function. Using a sports analogy that hits hard, he explains how extreme wealth and poverty grow side by side. The conversation shifts to Milwaukee’s housing crisis, where plenty of people are angry about landlord Joe Berrada—but few are stepping up to help the tenants caught in the middle. Then things take a serious turn when Tiffany Miller’s store is broken into again, raising questions about whether the crime was targeted and what self-protection really looks like for small business owners. This hour is uncomfortable, honest, and exactly the conversation a lot of people avoid—until now.
