2/23/26 10AM: Food, Freedom & EBT: Who Gets to Decide?

Sherwin opens Hour 2 with a strong reaction to a controversial bill that would limit what people can purchase using EBT/SNAP benefits. He questions whether government restrictions on food choices cross the line — and whether the proposal disproportionately impacts Milwaukee and its Black community. Sherwin dives into tough conversations about health, eating habits, cooking culture, and what he sees as unhealthy patterns within the community. As the hour continues, callers weigh in on SNAP benefits, food deserts, and the realities of grocery access in Milwaukee neighborhoods. Sherwin challenges the idea that access is the only issue, arguing that purchasing habits also play a major role. The discussion gets real about junk food spending, fresh produce, personal responsibility, and systemic barriers — with Russ calling in to offer his perspective on food deserts and the broader economic landscape. It’s an unfiltered hour tackling freedom of choice, accountability, and how policy decisions impact everyday families.
