You will not hear repeats like you do on some many other commercial radio stations. What you will hear are some of the most passionate and knowledgeable DJ's on the airwaves. All air time is divided into three hour blocks and programmed by the DJ's who volunteer their time to bring some of the coolest music ever recorded to their listeners. Blues, Jazz, Funk, R&B, and Americana are just a few of the genres well represented. Check out the programming guide at wmse.org. Listen to your favorite shows live or binge on the extensive online catalog of previous shows. Consider yourself lucky to be part of a city with access to great radio like this.

The staff made us listeners feel so welcome and made it a really fun time. We're lucky to have such diverse programming on this station and it's 100% independent. They love music and Milwaukee and it's evident whenever you tune in. Just a note: The Broadway address is their mailing address - the physical address for the station is actually 820 N.

There are two main public radio stations in the Milwaukee area: WUWM (Milwaukee Public Radio) and…read moreWHAD (Wisconsin Public Radio). WHAD seems to have a much larger variety of Wisconsin-centric programming, but I prefer WUWM's lineup. I'm addicted to it, really. The majority of their programming is made up of the nationally-syndicated shows (All Things Considered, etc), but the locally-produced programs like Lake Effect are excellent. Perhaps I'm choosing not to notice a slant, but it seems like it's a rare feat for a talk radio station to be anything other than a constant stream of opinions. Consider this the panacea for Mark Belling-/Sly Sylvester-induced nausea, depending on your political stance. Can a positive Yelp review be a substitute for a monetary donation to WUWM? I hope so. Then maybe I won't feel so guilty when they do fund drives.....

I have a whole grains cookbook somewhere in my kitchen for giving them money every month. There are two decals on my car, one is for WPR. But a few month ago, it must have been during a repeat of Prairie Home Companion, I decided to scan the radio in my car--something I have not done in a very long time. And I found WUWM, and I love it. I love the local shows and I love the national shows. It's not that I love WPR any less, and if there were some magical way to listen to two radio channels at the same time, I'd be good to go! Maybe once this honeymoon stage is over, I'll turn the dial up a MHz, but until then, I'm totally diggin' WUWM.

This is a review for their coverage of Packers games, as even through I don't live in Milwaukee or…read moreany where in Wisconsin. And I have to listen to the games with Wayne Larviee and Larry McCarren, even through it is not every minute of every game, and per to NFL rules they can only broadcast games on the internet on a desk top computer. So you can listen to games on a cell phone, so you can't really take away a star for them. I can't really comment on their other programming, which they also mention that they only carry shows that originate from their studios. Really wish tonight's Packers and Lions game was going better, and more in the Packers way. And you know with MLB they prevent local stations for broadcasting their call of the games on the internet.

Take two stars away for their shrill, bombastic political talk. I am politically moderate so I can understand many aspects of the conservative point of view.

They also have a music mix starting at 6pm for all the Blues lovers out there.
