Episode Highlights:

00:54 - The festival truly is a party with a purpose because not only do we bring the world class jazz talent to town, our festival proceeds go towards doing philanthropic work in Milwaukee. It's really important for us that we are about helping the community and being a part of the fabric of the community.

23:02 - They have all been on the podcast and interestingly, that's one of the things, one of the values of the podcast that, that for me is that I didn't get into the podcast for this to be the case. But what it has done is it's introduced me to some of these artists and their work ethic and how they go about their business.

41:13 - My wife leans over and whispers in my ear and she says to me, this is what we should do, we should start a jazz festival in Milwaukee and have the proceeds go to charity, that's how we honor your parents. And that's how the festival idea was born, and that's why the music piece of it is important, but the philanthropic piece of it is so important as well.
