While “Studebaker” is rarely the first name one thinks of when discussing motorsports, the company had a strong yet brief presence at the Indianapolis 500 in the early 1930s. Studebaker laid the groundwork with the introduction of the President's inline eight-cylinder engine in early 1928. The advent of the Indianapolis 500's 1930 rule changes opened the door for production-based entries, and the President's rugged eight powered a pair of private entries. These Studebaker-engined specials showed promise and led to the development of Studebaker's corporate team. This program will detail the origins and evolution of Studebaker-powered racers beginning in 1930 with a special emphasis on the company's factory-backed campaigns in 1932 and 1933. Additional focus will also be placed on the technical development of the Studebaker racers as well as the post-Studebaker disposition of the team cars and their present-day status. Sources include Studebaker's corporate archives and image collection at the Studebaker National Museum plus period publications and race accounts. Additional data is drawn from secondary sources profiling the Studebaker team plus owner research compiled during their stewardship of the cars. Andrew Beckman has been with the Studebaker National Museum since 1999 and currently serves as Archivist. He previously worked at the Sheboygan County Historical Society in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, and the Wade House State Historic Site in Greenbush, Wisconsin. Mr. Beckman hails from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, and holds a BA in History from the University of Wisconsin- Green Bay. In 2004, he completed the Modern Archives Institute at the National Archives and Records Administration in Washington, D.C. In 2009, he earned his mid-level certificate in Collections Preservation from the Campbell Center for Historic Preservation Studies in Mount Carroll, Illinois. Mr. Beckman is the author of The Studebaker National Museum: Over a Century on Wheels, and Studebaker's Last Dance: The Avanti, and is a columnist for the Studebaker Drivers Club magazine, Turning Wheels. In addition to his duties at the Studebaker National Museum, Mr. Beckman is a member and Past President of the Society of Automotive Historians.

Manitowoc North Breakwater Lighthouse, USLHS photo by Tom Tag The city of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of the Manitowoc River. The Manitowoc North Breakwater Lighthouse, built in 1918, is one of the area's most familiar icons. The lighthouse property was auctioned by the federal government in 2010 under the guidelines of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act. The buyer was Philip Carlucci of Melville, New York. Courtesy of the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary Club Since he's owned the lighthouse, Phil Carlucci has been responsible for much restoration. He has now partnered with the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary Club to offer public tours of the lighthouse. Members of the club keep the building clean and offer tours on a regular basis. Interviewed in this podcast episode are three board members of the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary Club:  Paul Roekle, Dennis Huckins, and Mike Woznick.

Tonight, I'll be winding up my summer series on Triangles of Death by taking us on an exploration of the Lake Michigan Triangle. This Triangle of Death isn't as widely known on a global scale, like the Bermuda Triangle, but it's history is just as full of the bizarre and the unexplained as any place on earth. In the first episode, I took us on a dive of the Devil's Triangle, just off the coast of Japan. The Devil's Triangle is the home of many mysterious disappearances, sunken ships, strange lights in the sky, and is responsible for hundreds of deaths. In the previous episode, I took us on a trek through the Bridgewater Triangle, a 200 square mile area in Massachusetts. Though its landlocked, its home of a mysterious swamp that is said to be haunted by the local Native American tribe of the Wampanoags. This Triangle of Death is also the location of mysterious disappearances, strange lights in the sky, UFO sightings, hauntings and is also responsible for the deaths of many. Stretching from Ludington to Benton Harbor, Michigan and to Manitowoc, Wisconsin, the Lake Michigan Triangle has inspired numerous accounts of activity that are difficult to explain by rational thought.  From dancing lights in the skies above it to a cryptic, underwater “Stonehenge” under its waters, Lake Michigan is steeped in aquatic oddities—enough to rival even those of the Bermuda and Devil's Triangles in the first two episodes of this series. But what's the story behind the aptly-dubbed “Michigan Triangle,” the Great Lakes' claim to paranormal fame? Is it all smoke and mirrors or, like the lake itself, something with a bit more depth? Come with me as we explore some of the unique phenomena that make the Lake Michigan Triangle a true mystery. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Cabin is presented by the Wisconsin Counties Association and this week we're featuring Vernon County: https://bit.ly/3MlEDXWThe Cabin is also brought to you by Group Health Trust: https://bit.ly/3JMizCXCampfire Conversation:Eric, Ana, and Jake welcome Chelsey Knuth into The Cabin for a heady look at Wisconsin's indoor museums, since it's a good time of year to be indoors when doing casual things. Chelsey is known to over 50,000 IG followers as The Wisconsinista, and her extensive travels around the state give her a solid level of expertise and another perspective. All four Cabin dwellers dive in to some of their favorite museums to explore, including Chelsey with some “must see” museums like the Milwaukee Art Museum, Milwaukee Public Museum, Discovery World (complete with Wisconsin's largest aquarium), and the Harley-Davidson Museum for when you're in Wisconsin's largest city. For art, she recommends the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum in Wausau; the Wisconsin Museum of Quilt & Fiber Arts in Cedarburg; and, in a twist, the Bergstrom-Mahler Museum of Glass in Neenah - for a more fragile yet just-as-stunning art. Chelsey also delved into children's museums, with great ones in Milwaukee, La Crosse, Green Bay, Madison, Eau Claire and more. On a more somber yet very historical note, the Peshtigo Fire Museum is a great stop once it opens again in spring. Hall of Fame Museums cover the Green Bay Packers, snowmobiles, even bobbleheads. Historic homes and mansions across state to explore include the Pabst Mansion and Villa Terrace in Milwaukee; House on the Rock and Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin home, both near Spring Green; the Paine Art Center in Oshkosh; the Fairlawn Mansion in Superior, and more. Ana delved into cultural museums, including the Menominee Tribe Cultural & Logging Museum; plus, Wisconsin's own State Capitol is a museum in itself. Eric discussed the National Brewery Museum in Potosi, the Wisconsin Automotive Museum in Hartford, the Wisconsin Maritime Museum in Manitowoc, Green Bay's Neville Public Museum and National Railroad Museum, the Copper Culture Museum in Oconto, and - while there's an outdoor component too - the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame in Hayward. Jake chimed in with the National Mustard Museum in Middleton and - perhaps most unique - Redner's Rescued Cat Figurine Museum in Menomonee Falls. Listen to the episode and get the full skinny on all of these and more! See Chelsey on Instagram @thewisconsinista, or link to https://www.instagram.com/thewisconsinista/Inside Sponsors:1.)

Bob and Ali continue to parse the police reports written by Calumet and Manitowoc county sheriff's departments. The investigation is in its early stages still and already there seems to be questionable behavior by law enforcement in their effort to collect evidence that will help get a conviction for the murder of Theresa Halbach. It didnt take long for the investigation to point in the direction of Steven Avery and his nephew Brendan Dassey. Non biased coverage of the case has been seemingly non existent over the years, as the docuseries Making a Murderer and Convicting a Murderer have pretty clear agendas. We are attempting to use the facts, all of the facts, on a quest to decide.... Steven Avery, did he do it? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
