1/30/26 4PM: Good Leadership

Hour 1 of Truth in the Afternoon with Dr. Ken opens with a sharp breakdown of a leadership failure at Milwaukee’s Office of Community Wellness and Safety. Dr. Ken explains why the removal of Adam Procell wasn’t about performance, but about a preventable legal oversight—and what that says about governance, process, and foresight at City Hall. Listeners weigh in via talk-to-text and YouTube chat as the conversation continues, including a pointed call questioning whether this was more than a simple “oops.” Dr. Ken also checks in on his own health (running on just over five hours of sleep) before pivoting to breaking news: Luigi Mangione will not face the death penalty, sparking a tough discussion on justice, punishment, and accountability. The hour wraps with news that Milwaukee is expanding the use of street cameras—and what that means for safety and surveillance.
