Lake Effect Weekend: Politcal Parties Aplenty, 'Not For Long,' Radio Chipstone, Ex Fabula

This weekend on Lake Effect:

We learn about the plethora of newly formed political parties in Milwaukee and how they might affect next year's races. Then, writer and former pro football player Robert Turner says high-level college athletes may be getting a free education, but that doesn't mean they're getting the lessons they need to succeed off of the field. Plus we have the latest editions of Radio Chipstone and our storytelling series Ex Fabula.

Guests:

  • Larry Sandler, writer
  • Robert Turner, author, Not For Long: The Life and Career of the NFL Athlete
  • Hilary Morgan Leathem, University of Chicago Department of Anthropology doctoral candidate; Gianofer Fields, material culture contributor
  • Leah DeLaney, Ex Fabula co-founder; Rachel Owens, WUWM
