Dr. Joe Heim, professor emeritus at UW-La Crosse, joins for some immediate reaction to the news that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was chosen to be Kamala Harris’ running mate.

La Crosse Talk airs weekdays at 6-9 a.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM / 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska). Find all the podcasts here or subscribe to La Crosse Talk PM wherever you get your podcasts.

Heim talks a bit about Walz’s experience as a US House rep. in Minnesota’s 1st District, which includes La Crescent and Winona, plus how the veteran and former teacher is more of a down-the-middle candidate — despite the recent policies passed in the state.
