4p: Culture, Costs & Community

This hour focuses on several issues impacting Milwaukee and Wisconsin communities. Tory Lowe joins to discuss controversy surrounding a Brady Street bar's decision to restrict certain music, including local Milwaukee rap, and the reaction it has sparked. Jonathan Hansen of Hunger Task Force and Bill Schmidt of Root and Rising then examine how rising back-to-school costs are straining family budgets and increasing concerns about food insecurity for students. Later, Adam Roberts brings the latest from a Milwaukee 911 press conference related to the case of a 99-year-old woman who was brutally attacked, including updates from law enforcement and community leaders. We wrap up with Dale Kooyenga’s MKE Economy Briefing, exploring Wisconsin’s ongoing brain drain, workforce challenges, and the economic issues shaping the state's future.
