Here & Now

Here & Now opening for April 17, 2026

Announcer:
The following program is a PBS Wisconsin original production.

Frederica Freyberg:
April showers bring destruction as storm damage from hail, flooding and tornadoes wreaked havoc across the state this week.
I’m Frederica Freyberg. Tonight on “Here & Now,” we check in with the National Weather Service on what’s been hit. Then Senator Ron Johnson gives his position on the war in Iran and a Ph.D. student back home in Iran provides an inside point of view of what it’s like to live inside the warfare. And groups, again, bring a legal challenge to the Enbridge Oil pipeline. It’s “Here & Now” for April 17.
