Favorite place to take a visitor in Milwaukee:
I love taking people on my boat (“Larry”). Cruising up and down the river, stopping at restaurants, watching the fireworks over the lake. Oh, and pulling exhausted kayakers and dead-in-the-water boats to docks, getting a mile out and hopping in for a swim. And, getting pulled over by the Coast Guard and police for routine inspections (which I always pass). It doesn’t get much better than that!

Favorite band/artist of all time:
Ani DiFranco. She’s my hero and I swear she built me. I may have ended up a very different person had her music not come into my teenage life. Thanks, Ani.

What about you would surprise people:
When I’m not at 88Nine, my full-time job is in the tool-and-die industry. There is a very specific item that you all have in your homes that came from one of our molds. I’ll give you a hint: It’s in your bathroom. I love Wisconsin manufacturing!
