We get updates on two ongoing stories from northwestern Wisconsin. Federal aid is coming to areas hit hardest by heavy rain in June and two protesters have been found guilty for their roles in a protest of a Superior oil pipeline. Then, the Green Bay Packers of the 1960s were on the top of the sports world, but the players lived in modest homes near Lambeau Field. We talk with a reporter about their houses and lifestyle. We also talk with the author of a book on America’s love for advice columns.
