John is a multi-media journalist with the local paper, and Janelle covers everything entertainment! This week, they bring in Mike Ajango with Evergreen Theater.

Then a friend of the show, Reggie Desamour, owner of Area 509 in Appleton, joins to talk about his new food truck, "Busted Spud," and some of the events they have planned this summer.

The youngest of three sons, he helped with a variety of chores, but cooking was his favorite. His passion was there! Early in 2019, Reggie decided to turn a hobby into a business and began the process of building his own food trailer. He wanted his food trailer to feature his authentic Caribbean food while allowing him to travel to different communities and connect with people. Roxanne even made us some rum cakes for his visit!

We're talking about the Draft, and the hour starts with Maino's conversation with former Green Bay quarterback Randy Wright.

The CVB is stepping up with shuttle services and events like a mini Mile of Music, which includes 10 venues with live music on Wednesday night.

The hour begins with veteran Chuck Wellens. Chuck has been a guest on the show before, and he joins us to help kick off a new feature we're featuring on our website called "Remembering Vietnam".

"Remembering Vietnam" is sponsored by THE Dispensary. Our "Veterans Salute" is brought to you by Olson Legal Group, LLC in Berlin and Oshkosh. Then some great friends from Marinette make the drive in. Mayor Steve Genisot and the Director of Marketing and Tourism, Shawn Katzbeck, gave an update on what's going on in the city.
