Background

Adam Jarchow, a business and real estate attorney in Polk County as well as a small business owner, is a former Republican Legislator. He’s married with two kids. He enjoys fishing, hunting, and traveling.

Patty Schachtner, from Somerset, is married with 6 children and 12 grandchildren. Her career path has always tilted towards the Emergency Service part of Healthcare. As a self-proclaimed undercover nerd, she loves identifying public health trends and working with policymakers on solutions. As a former Democratic Legislator, she says she now has a better understanding of how to get those policies implemented from a local, state, and national level.

“More speech is better than less speech,” Adam said when asked what his reason was for signing on for the show. “Having a dialogue with political opponents is important. Bringing our experience and perspective to NW Wisconsin, which does not get much WI news, can add value to our political discourse.”

Patty added that “Because Adam and I are on opposite sides of the political spectrum if we can consciously take the time and effort to hear things from each other's perspective respectively anybody can.”
