**What drives a retired infantryman and grandfather of six to step forward for another tour of service—this time in Madison?**
Over a smoky brandy Old Fashioned, Chris Muller sits down with Wisconsin’s 94th Assembly District candidate Keith Purnell for a candid conversation about service, responsibility, and the future we leave our grandchildren.
From his childhood in Alabama to a 22-year Army career, teaching ROTC, helping veterans, and cleaning classrooms at his church, Keith shares the experiences behind his simple philosophy: bring what you have to the table and give it.
That same outlook shapes his approach to government. Keith explains why he wants stronger reading skills, higher academic expectations, and teachers equipped to meet their students’ needs. Drawing on his accounting background, he also proposes independent audits with public reports that help taxpayers understand where their money goes.
Along the way, Chris and Keith explore protecting constitutional freedoms, finding common ground without demanding perfection, and why political apathy carries a cost.
**Listen for the personal stories, practical proposals, and a grandfather’s determination to give the next generation a better future.**
