When Crisis Hits, Community Shows Up

Plus Our Faves From 2025 Last week, everything changed in an instant. A serious car accident turned this doctor into a patient, and the strangers who became heroes – the volunteers and healthcare workers who rushed to help – reminded me exactly why we do this show. Community isn’t just a buzzword. It’s how we take care of each other. It’s our foundation. It’s what builds our democracy. And what a year of community building it has been! In 2025, I sat down with some of the most interesting and engaging voices in Wisconsin and beyond – people who step up and speak out in the places where they are needed the most. These aren’t just interviews, these are the conversations that shaped the year. From the fight for healthcare to the future of Wisconsin, from tariffs to protecting our voting rights, we’ve covered it all. Join us as we relive the moments that hit hardest, celebrate the wins, and get fired up for what’s coming next…because we’re just getting started!
