A Wisconsin museum is celebrating the state’s culture with a new program on the history and process behind brewing beer. Our guests talk about the exhibit and explain the role of beer brewing in Wisconsin’s history. We also talk to a candidate for Wisconsin’s sixth congressional district, and take the pulse of last night’s Mike Pence rally in Waukesha – the first since he became Donald Trump’s running mate. Governor Walker introduced Pence, prompting some observers to ask if Walker is finally warming up to the idea of a Trump ticket.
