This week on 365 Amplified, the crew is back and broadcasting from the new Madison365 HQ at Starting Block in the Spark Building to recap a week filled with local political shakeups, Open Cup soccer drama, and some serious inspiration on and off the court.

Stephanie, Rob, Omar, and Nick dive into:

  • Madison city council election results—Who held on, who was unseated, and some eyebrow-raising campaign suspensions and controversies.

  • The Wisconsin Supreme Court race—Susan Crawford’s win, Brad Schimel’s loss, and Elon Musk’s unwelcome attempted influence.

  • A heated Open Cup soccer match that ended in a defeat and some extracurriculars.

  • The surprise celebrity status of Wisconsin's own Jeremy Payne, who is now in a viral US Cellular ad campaign.

  • DeAndre Martin’s appointment as the new CEO of CEOs of Tomorrow, and what the future holds for the youth entrepreneurship org.

  • Basketball phenom Nyajuacni Riak, a freshman at La Follette already turning heads with college offers from UCLA, Alabama, and Minnesota.

  • The Knueppel family dynasty dominating Wisconsin basketball from grade school to Duke University.

  • Cory Booker’s 25-hour Senate filibuster, why performance and politics go hand-in-hand, and why sometimes being dramatic is exactly what’s needed.

  • A round of reflection on the worst advice they’ve ever received.
