Chad Holmes Show: Friday, January 9

It's Friday and we talk about some positive work in government as the House of Representatives votes to reestablish the ACA subsidies that expired at the end of December. Still work to do in the Senate but it's a step in the right direction in lowering the cost of health care insurance through the exchange. We talk Wisconsin sports with Paul Michlig as the Packers get set to face the Bears in the first round of the playoffs. Will a loss lead to big changes? What do the Packers need to do to win? Plus, Giannis says he will never ask for a trade. Does that mean he is staying forever? Plus talk about the cover-up the DOJ is attempting in Minneapolis, the incompetence of Kristi Noem and the Trump Administration, a recap of the HS sports action of last night and the Number of the Day Quiz with Ian. The Chad Holmes Show is part of Civic Media and can be heard from 8 to 9 am weekdays on 98.9 WXCO, wxco.fm, mobile devices by searching WXCO and on the Civic Media app. The 9 am to 10 am hour can be heard on the 98.9 WXCO YouTube channel and on the "Sports 2 Stream" of wxco.fm and Civic Media app. Guest: Paul Michlig
