Pat Kreitlow begins the hour with Up North News reporter Salina Heller to discuss summer schools and the school lunch programs that continue for communities throughout the summer. Then, the topic of air shows and the strange assignments Salina has been put on in the past.

Then, Meghan Roh from Opportunity Wisconsin tells us about their work to remind voters about candidates’ real records, not their campaign ad rhetoric—especially when it comes to taxes and what we’re learning about the real cost of Donald Trump’s 2017 big cuts for the very wealthy.

To wrap up the hour, Civic Media News Director Terry Bell joins the show to discuss the three things you need to know going into this week. The changing landscape of higher education in Wisconsin, a return to Wisconsin for former President Donald Trump, and what is going on with zones around the upcoming RNC.
