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. The company's filing did not initially name Schmitt or the other investors by

Green Bay Notre Dame star Kingston Allen chases state history

Kingston Allen’s high school football career will come to an end sometime in the next two weeks. The area might never see a player like the Green Bay Notre Dame running back again. That old sports adage that records are made to be broken is something Allen has taken literally. He is on the cusp of perhaps his biggest achievement, entering a WIAA Division 2 semifinal playoff game against Union Grove on Nov. 13 needing 214 yards to surpass former Columbus star Colton Brunell as the state’s all-time rushing king. Allen recently joined Brunell as the only players in state history with more than 7,000 career rushing yards. Brunell finished with 7,416. Allen stands at 7,203. Rushing for more than 200 yards in a semifinal wouldn’t normally be a lock, but it might be for Allen if he stays healthy. He has rushed for more than 214 yards in a game 10 times this season. The only reason he didn’t do it in the other two contests was because he was pulled early with six carries and 136 yards against Manitowoc and seven attempts for 122 yards against Green Bay East after Notre Dame beat the two by a combined
