Tuesday on Lake Effect:
Whether we go there for a quick latte, to plug in a laptop to work, or settle in to have a conversation with a friend, the coffee shop has become a hybrid of personal and public: a kind of third space. We explore how coffee shops came to fill this role. Then, we get up close and personal with some of the raptors that make their home at the Schlitz Audubon Nature Center. Later, we meet up with gardener Melinda Myers at the State Fair to talk about blending your flower and vegetable gardens. A local dermatologist offers some professional summer skin protection tips, and we’ll have the latest episode in our ongoing series on children and gun violence in Milwaukee, Precious Lives.
Guests:
- Rose Pozos-Brewer, Swarthmore graduate
- Diane Visty, Schlitz Audubon Nature Center
