PODCAST: Milwaukee County Parks neglected by leaders
This is the first installment of “Driving with Jim” handsfree podcasting.
You’ve seen how bad our parks have been maintained — now you’ll know why. I’ll explore some of the problems with our parks and name names. I also touch on mass transit and how Governor Jim Doyle gave County Executive Scott Walker additional funds for transportation only to have Walker use it for other purposes — resulting in more fare increases and service cuts.

Special thanks to Jason Haas at Dyskeptic Radio for technical assistance.

This sounds very interesting! Do you have any plans to publish a transcipt of you podcasts? The few among your followers who still use dial-up would be forever grateful.
Not at present. Unless we find a program that can do it electronically, transcribing might be too time-consuming, given the demand for new content.
Done. The size of the podcast is 1/4 of what it was before. Thanks for mentioning the challenge you had with the size. If there’s any other way can make the site more user friendly, please let me know. All my best, Jim
Wow! Thanks for such quick assistance. I learn things here that I can find nowhere else and really appreciate that.
