New Collections for Circus World Museum and Old-World Wisconsin, Federal Funding cut for WI Libraries, and Bruce Springsteen’s New Music

Archivist for Circus World Museum Pete Shrake joins Kristin Brey and Steve to discuss what fascinates people about the circus, what we should know about the museum, and what guests can expect from a new collection coming this season. Then Old-World Wisconsin Beer & Brewing Historian Rob Novak joins Kristin and Steve to talk about museum's completion of their 1930s tavern. Novak shares when the tavern will be on display for guests, the cool history about the tavern, and what the process is like to renovate a 100-year-old building. Later Deb Marett Public Information Coordinator at Milwaukee County Federated Library System talks to Kristin and Steve about Trump’s executive order to cut federal funding for public libraries and museums. Marett explains what the institute of Museum and Library Service is and what their funding supports, what this cut of federal funds means for the future of our libraries, what may happen now that Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul has joined 20 other states in a lawsuit and how citizens can help. Also, Kristin and Steve talk about Bruce Springsteen releasing seven new albums this June and then teaser for their new podcast episode that is NSFW.
