Introducing Las Crónicas

Speaking of...

And we're back! We're going to take you along with us as we uncover a few short stories to hold you over until season 2 of the podcast. We’re calling these in-between episodes “Las Crónicas." The Chronicles. Based on formats borrowed from Latin American chronicles, we explore Milwaukee's history and culture through physical spaces in the city. So get ready to hear stories bringing together our past and present through places you may or may not know. Expect new episodes each Friday until early December.
