AI, Bad Bunny, and the Leif Erikson 5K (10-1-25)

The government is shut down, but the show is fired up, tackling everything from Washington's political theater to a high-school image scandal and a "demonic" Super Bowl halftime pick. North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley joins to discuss the criminal nature of sharing explicit and AI-generated images among teens, while Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak breaks down why Democrats are "holding the American people hostage" over government funding. Plus, a community rallying cry for a wholesome alternative to the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show.   Key Moments: 01:45 - The "Life Erickson" 5K Run/Walk in Moorhead on October 9th is announced, complete with Viking helmets and beer glasses from Swing Barrel Brewing. 08:06 - North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley joins to discuss the disturbing and illegal sharing of nude and AI-generated images among students at Davies and West Fargo schools. 12:56 - Dana in Williston calls in, highly disturbed by the NFL's selection of "Puerto Rican rapper" Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl halftime show, calling him "anti-everything." 13:51 - The host and caller discuss Taylor Swift reportedly turning down the Super Bowl halftime show because the NFL would not meet her financial demands. 17:34 - Drew Wrigley addresses a common pushback, clarifying that while a student who sends an explicit image of themselves is not the focus of prosecution, the distributor of that image is committing a crime. 20:46 - A caller connects the student image scandal to a larger "crisis" in North Dakota, mentioning a recent suicide linked to "revenge porn" and digital harassment. 23:44 - Mike calls in, arguing that AI itself should be prosecuted as a new entity for its role in fostering suicidal thoughts in children undergoing mental health crises. 26:50 - Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak explains the political dynamic behind the government shutdown, detailing how Democrats' "ridiculous demands," like unwinding Medicaid work requirements and funding free healthcare for illegal aliens, caused the stoppage. 31:58 - A listener suggests that football players who claim Christ as their savior should "take a knee about Bad Bunny" to protest the halftime choice. 34:54 - Dana in Bismarck encourages listeners to honor the legacy of Charlie Kirk by asking themselves, "would I do that to myself?" when making decisions.The government is shut down, but the show is fired up, tackling everything from Washington's political theater to a high-school image scandal and a "demonic" Super Bowl halftime pick.
