Andrew Richter

A Team Of "If's"   The Twins new season is on the doorstep, so of course Brad Carlson, "The Closer" from 1280am The Patriot is back in to break the whole thing down for us.   Dick Bremer was let go at the end of last season after 40 years of calling games on tv, so the Twins will start the season with a new voice. Cory Provus isn't a new voice for Twins fans, so it should be a smooth transition. Joe Mauer is getting into the National Baseball Hall of Fame this year, which was expected, but played exceptionally as both a catcher and a first baseman.    When we left them last...

Andrew Richter

This week we sit down with our long time friend (and former Crystal Councilmember), Jeff Kolb, for his astute political analysis. We dismantle the 2022 election. What happened? Why? What can we learn from it going into 2024? Is there a correlation between the polling and the confusion we saw in the end results? We also discuss one of the most important intangibles in politics… authenticity. There is so little of it, but yet most people really yearn for it. We wrap up with a hard look at 2024 and whether or not there’s any hope for the future in MN politics, and really, life as we know...

We are pleased to welcome Brad Carlson “The Closer” from am 1280 The Patriot. Every time he’s on the show, you are assured of an in depth analysis of some facet of the sports world. This week it’s all Vikings … the Uncle Burnsie years. Jerry Burns was the colorful head coach of the Vikings from ‘86-91. They started out as a talented team with the likes of Tommy Kramer, Anthony Carter, Chris Doleman, and Joey Browner. There were lots of ups and downs, an NFC championship game (with a dropped winning pass), and the worst trade in all of sports history. The Vikings are a team that...

Well, well, well... the MN Legislature and Governor Walz have sure been busy since January. Walz keeps referring to this "mandate" Democrats have to get things done. You mean the one vote majority in the senate and six seats in the house? Yeah, while the Democrats are engaging in a scorched earth policy to cram their radical agenda down everybody's throats, they are leaving half of the state disenfranchised. Our government must be held accountable, but they are acting as if they are in control forever. They have passed the trans refuge law (after an unconstitutional executive order) that...

This week we invite Bill Sankey to the show. Bill has been an electrician for 25 years. We’re told by everyone in the educational system that we have to attend a 4 year university in order to be something in this world. We need to have people in the trades to make the world go, and the schools haven’t been pushing it, despite the great money people in the trades can make. Not to mention, these little to no debt after school! The Baby Boomers are leaving the trades in droves as they reach the retirement age. We need our young people to get into these jobs in a big way. The issue is that...

You know him, you love him, you keep requesting him… “The Closer” Brad Carlson from 1280am The Patriot is back on the show. If you’ve listened for Brad you know his political acumen, but he has even greater knowledge of baseball, so today we talk some Twins. We’ve talked about ‘87 and ‘91, but we’ve never talked about the lost years (‘93-2000). These were rough years for us Twins fans, but it’s worth discussing. Now remember, the Twins won the World Series in ‘91 and almost won the division in ‘92, save for a 10 game slide at the end of the season… but that’s when...

Today’s podcast, we welcome Dan Hanks to the podcast. Dan is an expert on football and basketball. So yeah, we’re talking Vikes and Wolves, but we’re not stopping there. What moves do the Vikings have to make in the off-season to improve their standing for next year? What’s going to happen to Dalvin Cook and Kirk Cousins? Will there ever be any real hope for the Vikings to bring home a title or are their fans forever to be forlorn? This is our first foray into hoops, and we delve into our personal basketball past and our favorite moments in NBA history. Will the Wolves make the...

Today, Andrew sits down with Angela Cooperman, former campaign manager of Dr Scott Jensen, running for MN Governor.  Angela had worked with Jason Lewis and the Republican Party of MN previous to that. She grew up in the D.C. area and brings a wealth of political experience with her.

She had to navigate the political system through COVID, riots after George Floyd, and opponents that refused to debate. So why do Minnesota voters keep voting for Democrats, even when these policies are hurting them?

She explains what it was like to run Dr Jensen’s campaign in a crazy political environment in 2022, what factors are determining the issues in Minnesota, and we look into the future of MN elections.
