Drawing on decades of experience in journalism and communications, Schwartz reflects on what she's learned from covering some of Wisconsin's biggest stories, why the truth is often more complicated than the headlines suggest, and how the moments that never make the news can be the most revealing of all.

    This week on The Scaffidiology Podcast, Steve Scaffidi goes deep into the legal and political issues shaping the country with two of Milwaukee’s most respected legal minds: former U.S. Attorney James Santelle and attorney Matt O’Neill. From the current state of the U.S. Department of Justice to recent efforts challenging long-standing Supreme Court precedents, the conversation covers some of the most consequential legal debates in America today. Santelle and O’Neill discuss what they describe as a “talent drain” within the DOJ, the evolution of executive power, and the legal theories shaping today’s political landscape.

    Ep. 77: Dr Howard Fuller on the Education Marshall Plan

    On this episode of The Scaffidiology Podcast, Steve Scaffidi is joined by Colleston Morgan, Executive Director of City Forward Collective, and Dr. Howard Fuller, Marquette University Professor Emeritus and former Milwaukee Public Schools superintendent, for a critical conversation about the future of education in Milwaukee. Focusing on Milwaukee’s north side and a recent CFC report, the discussion explores how the city — and Wisconsin as a whole — have fallen behind nationally in education outcomes. Dr. Fuller calls for what he describes as an “education Marshall Plan,” emphasizing that solutions must be built for today’s realities, not the past. From rightsizing and reinvestment to accountability across all sectors — including public, charter, and private schools — the conversation highlights the complexity of improving educational outcomes in a diverse urban environment. As Morgan notes, there is no one-size-fits-all solution for Milwaukee’s students.
