LA CROSSE TALK PM: How Wisconsin messed up giving Kwik Trip grant funding for EV chargers and can La Crosse get the Bucks G-League team

UW-La Crosse political science professor, Dr. Anthony Chergosky, in studio for La Crosse Talk PM discussing people unknowingly getting sucked into the YouTube algorithm, getting the Bucks G-League team to the La Crosse Center and how the state messed up awarding Kwik Trip some of the $23 million for EV chargers.

We also hit on the absurdity that Congress gets to trade stocks, a US Supreme Court justice blaming his wife for flying, not one, but two right-wing-like flags outside his home and we ended with the midwest’s most whacky foods.

Opened the show talking about a couple of odd and funny stories: A Tennessee GOP candidate using A.I. to completely makeover his face into basically another person, Wendy’s selling 50-piece chicken nuggets and the new Minnesota tourism slogan, Anthony Edwards’ “Bring ya ass,” as the Timberwolves get eliminated from the NBA playoffs and traffic cams in Minneapolis.

CORRECTION: In regards to EV funding, Kwik Trip received $8 million, not $23 million. The state dished out $23 million in total grant funding.
