A fixture in northeast Wisconsin news and sports television, Bill Jartz has spent nearly 45 years delivering stories to the people of Wisconsin. Born and raised in Clintonville, the self-described "hay shaker" was an all state football player who went on to play at Northwestern while pursuing a degree in journalism. In this episode, Bill and Brad chat about the early years, his time in front of the camera, being the gameday voice of Lambeau field as the PA announcer for the Green Bay Packers, life outside of the lights, and much more. A conversation with "Jartzy" unveils a humble, authentic, and genuine person, proud to serve the folks of Wisconsin, indicative of the countless stories you hear of him emceeing charity auctions and donating his time and talent to those in need.
