Extreme Weather, UW Athletics Shakeup, and Olbrich's Expansion Contested
from City Cast Madison · host City Cast
Madison was just hammered by extreme weather — flooding, high winds, hail the size of baseballs, and possibly (maybe) even a tornado?! Host Bianca Martin, producer Jade Iseri-Ramos, and newsletter editor Rob Thomas chat about where the city was impacted and how they weathered the storm. Plus, a big shakeup in the UW Athletics department has some concerned about what comes next for the university's struggling football program, and neighbors push back on proposed changes at Olbrich Botanical Gardens. And an exciting new bonus segment just for Neighbors: A conversation about a UW workplace rivalry that turned poisonous … literally.
