It's a new year, and we here at the show welcome you to it! Everything kicks off with an announcement from Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. We stay in the state and discuss how their child care scandal isn't a new story, but it's spotlight has ramifications on Wisconsin's child care funding and public perception. Then we speak to Civic Media's very own Melissa Kaye about the changes to WFHR, how to stay up to speed on community stories, the rebooting of a classic show and her endeavors in the theatre world. And from what we've been told, there is also a pigeon attending this conversation, as well.
