Rahr- West and Sputnik Fest (Hour 2)

Pete opens hour 2 with Manitowoc's Sputnik Fest, celebrating the 1962 crash landing of Soviet Sputnik 4 with wild costumes, alien-themed fun, and a zany block party vibe. Greg Vadney, director of the Rahr- West Museum, shares insights on making art accessible and the museum's eclectic exhibits, from international masterpieces to local gems. Plus, listeners spill on their worst jobs, from garbage man woes to factory line drudgery, while Pete and Vadney reminisce about their own career misadventures.
