It's theater of the mind! It's cinema for the ear! It's another Points North listening party! Join us at The Filling Station Microbrewery in Traverse City or at the Fresh Coast Film Festival in Marquette, as we premiere a new Points North episode.
A small village west of Milwaukee is known for one thing: frog jumping. This yearly cultural competition has been happening for over 70 years and brings out hundreds of participants. But all that tradition is about to end, as one woman from the Wisconsin DNR considers her own legacy.
Plus, we'll premiere a bonus Points North feature as well. This immersive audio experience will transport you through time and space, leaving you inspired by this great region.
Q&A with Points North host and executive producer Dan Wanschura will follow.
Points North is a window into life in the Great Lakes. Each episode tells a story rooted here that ends up being about all of us. A smooth-talking stone skipper. A woman forced to sell her family sawmill. A scientist who stumbles on a tree that shouldn’t exist. We take you into the woods, onto the water, down a back road, or into the life of someone who calls this place home. Listen and subscribe to Points North wherever you find podcasts.
