Ex-Green Bay Mayor Schmitt part of lawsuit filed by conservative radio host

(This story has been updated to add new information.) A lawsuit has disclosed Green Bay mayoral candidate Jim Schmitt’s financial backing of conservative radio talk show “ The Regular Joe Show ” as the Schmitt campaign distances his associations to the Republican Party. Schmitt was one of several initial investors who bought into RWB Productions Inc., a company created in August 2021 by Joe Giganti to earn money for the radio show, which launched in 2018 on WTAQ and highlighted conservative politics. Schmitt has been president of the company since at least December 2022, later firing Giganti in 2023, according to court filings. Giganti's radio show, self-described as a "home for consistent conservatism without apology," continued to run under a separate LLC called Fearsome 5 ever since. In an intentional tort lawsuit filed in June at the Brown County Courthouse, RWB Productions alleged that Giganti breached his fiduciary duty of loyalty to the company by loaning money to himself without company approval, paying third parties “exorbitant amounts of money belong to RWB without RWB receiving due consideration in return” and directing company funds to his personal use.
