  • Don't just see The Nutcracker, live it
    Nov 20 2025

    Seeing a production of the Nutcracker is a holiday tradition for many Wisconsinites. For fans of the classical ballet – there's an opportunity to not just watch a performance of the Nutcracker but actually immerse yourself in the story.

    You can do it on a visit to the Paine Art Center and Gardens in Oshkosh. That’s where we’re headed for this month’s Wandering Wisconsin. Lake Effect’s Becky Mortensen is joined by Aaron Sherer from the Paine Art Center and Amanda Weibel with Travel Wisconsin.

  • When a data center comes to town, this man saves your building
    Nov 19 2025

    A massive data center campus is being constructed in Port Washington. Elected officials there say the project will be a boon for the community, but not all residents are on board. Some are concerned about the environmental impact, their bills and quality of life. WUWM has been exploring this data center debate, and today we look at buildings.

    Vantage Data Centers is the company building this campus. It has purchased more than 100 properties in Port Washington – which means some buildings need to go. That’s where David DeVooght (duh-VOHT) comes in. He moves buildings for a living. He sees this land purchase as an opportunity to reuse existing structures rather than have them end up in a landfill. WUWM’s environmental reporter Susan Bence met with DeVooght to learn about his work.

  • Why physicians tend to struggle with mental health, and what to do about it
    Nov 18 2025

    The rates of depression, anxiety and PTSD are higher among physicians compared to the general population. Unfortunately, this problem is not improving, as at least one physician in the U.S. dies by suicide every day. Despite the proven effectiveness of treating mental health conditions, most physicians don’t seek help. So why does this treatment gap exist - and what barriers are preventing it from closing?

    Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld looked into this issue firsthand and co-authored a study that shares a few solutions to reduce barriers to mental health care for physicians. Dr. Ehrenfeld joins me now to share more, and starts by explaining why mental health challenges are prevalent among physicians and others in the medical field. A note to our listeners - this conversation has mentions of suicide.
