As volunteer searchers try to locate all of teen girl Sade Robinson's remains, a gruesome discovery... this time, at a remote, tree-lined stretch of beach along Lake Michigan. Just after 7:30 am, someone walking along a South Milwaukee water line discovered an arm and torso. The remains washed ashore about a quarter mile away from a nearby apartment complex. Residents watched as officers carried a body bag down the cliff to recover an arm and torso. Sade's father has joined in the search for his daughter's remains. We have also learned that inside the unfinished basement that police have called a “sex dungeon,” it's in disarray. A large hole has been dug in the concrete floor. A drain in the floor is stuffed with towels, the drain cover marked with evidence numbers. A door without a handle leads to a dark closet, and there are several tables, a chair, and exercise equipment. The mattress of a queen bedframe is flipped on its side, and bedding is tossed over a table in the corner of the room. A circle saw, hacksaw, and power drill are also recovered from Anderson's backyard.

As volunteer searchers try to locate all of teen girl Sade Robinson's remains, a gruesome discovery... this time, at a remote, tree-lined stretch of beach along Lake Michigan. Just after 7:30 a.m., someone walking along a South Milwaukee water line discovered an arm and torso. The remains washed ashore about a quarter mile away from a nearby apartment complex. Residents watched as officers carried a body bag down the cliff to recover the body parts. Police have continued their search using a sonar detection boat to scour the lake. During their investigations, police discovered Maxwell Anderson had a “sex dungeon” in the basement of his West Milwaukee home, according to a law enforcement source. Cops found a ‘sex sling', restraints, and handcuffs. A close friend of Anderson's said that on a visit to Anderson's home last year, he noticed a large hole in the ground about 5 feet long by 6 feet deep. Anderson said he was working on an underground basement, despite having a large basement in the home already. Neighbors say the basement in the home had small windows that were always covered, so you could not see inside. Police also found gas cans in the garage, and blood in several areas, including on bedding and the wall of a stairwell leading to the basement. After initial DNA tests, an amended probable cause affidavit reveals the blood is not Sade Robinson's.

On this weeks episode of Keep the Kayfabe we continue our deep dive series on living legends that will be attending Crusherfest this June 3rd and 4th located in South Milwaukee. He's the man you love to hate, the Million Dollar Man, Ted Dibiase. Renowned as one of the greatest heels of all time with world wide star power, Ted's career is astounding. Dibiase had pivotal roles in some of the most monumental face turns, heel turns, and most watched PPVs of all time and not to mention breaking in some of the biggest names in the business in their infancy. His contributions to the wrestling business can not be over stated enough and we can not wait to see him at Crusherfest!

On this weeks episode of Keep the Kayfabe we continue our deep dive series on the legends that will be featured at South Milwaukee's, Crusher Fest this June 3rd and 4th! And we couldn't be more excited to talk about the life and career of one of our favorites, Greg The Hammer Valentine. A man who has never held the highest championships, but his role on the card could be described as the fulcrum to any great wrestling show. Valentine is someone who knew the value in the right combinations of wrestlers to generate the most heat in the territory in which they wrestled while sticking to his guns and core values. Also we talk about WWE's PPV Backlash that happened this past weekend and how parts are reminiscent to old school wrestling.
On this episode of Keep the Kayfabe the boys announce some very exciting news that they will be taking the show on the road and will be heading to South Milwaukee's spectacular event, Crusherfest! A bi-annual celebration of pro wrestling that honors the home town hero, Reginald Lisowski, better known to his fans as The Crusher. The best part is the event invites living legends to come hang out and tell stories from their great careers, one of the invitees is the spot light of this weeks deep dive, Cowboy Bob Orton. Maybe one of the more notable unsung heroes of the heel genre, this episode shines light on Bob's amazing career and all his contributions to the business. What wrestling move should be in every wrestlers bag that Cowboy Bob invented and what mega power of a star did he basically break into the business? All this and so much more on this episode of KTK and join us at Crusherfest June 3rd and 4th in South Milwaukee!

Lori: Welcome to A BROADcast For Manufacturers. We are your hosts Lori Highby, Erin Courtenay, and Kris Harrington. Our first episode is really to share with you a little bit about us. We will be interviewing each other on our backgrounds, passions, and most importantly, why we are excited to be co-hosting A BROADcast For Manufacturers!Lori: I'm going to start by asking Kris a couple of questions. Kris, could you please tell us a bit about yourself? Kris: I love to eat. No, I live on a farm. Actually, as it comes to, I guess, my manufacturing story and a little bit of background of kind of how I've landed here, I spent some time in the US Navy. So I think what's interesting for me as I was always a natural athlete in school. So I just love to work with my hands. You know, I think the one thing about sports is that I'm just that kinesthetic, naturally. So any time I can be doing something with my hands, I'm happy. So one of the ways that I could use my hands and travel the world, which was also a dream for me was to join the Navy. So I started before I ever went to school, I was in the Navy. After I left the Navy, I was a machinist mate just to share that as well. After I left the Navy, I went to work here in Milwaukee at Brady company, and I worked on the manufacturing floor. So I ran a machine I started off on second shift, then I moved to third shift, I worked in a cleanroom environment, but I was responsible for, you know, picking the materials that I was going to run on my machine, setting up the machine, and then producing products that would be eventually packed and sold to our customers. So I have that experience of actually working on machinery as well. I went to work for We Energies, you know, those of us that are from Wisconsin, we know that they are the local electrical and gas company here, but I located underground utilities for a while. So when I did that, I was outside working with construction companies and wherever they were building or digging or, you know, doing any work outside that you had to locate those underground utilities to make it safe. For those. I was kind of a part of that. So that's just some fun part of my background. So I was a non-traditional student when I decided to eventually go to school. I did choose Marquette University here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. So I think I started at Marquette and about the age of 28. So I was older, um, you know, I thought I was going to going to school for physical therapy. Because I, again, am naturally sports-oriented, and I just wanted to work with sports teams and in heart and help on the physical therapy side. But what I realized when I got to school is that I really wasn't good at chemistry and biology. But I couldn't wrap my head around it. I just didn't understand why we need to learn chemical formulas and all these other things and, you know, dissect animals. Yeah, and things of that nature as already having been an adult and, you know, being responsible for things. I didn't understand the application of that. So I had gone to a counselor to say, hey, I don't know what I'm doing here. And I'm, I'm spending a lot of money at Marquette. And if I'm not going to do well, I got to get out of this. And he asked me a few questions and suggested that I start at the School of Business. And the next year, I went into the school of business and I can tell you everything clicked for me. It was awesome: media, economics, accounting, finance. I had intuitively learned through working and living and having my own adult responsibilities, but now I was getting this broader and deeper understanding of things. So my first real career move after I graduated from Marquette was to start at Bucyrus international here in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They were a manufacturer of mining equipment, very large surface mining equipment. During my time there, mining was really growing. Mining...

Decades ago, great monolithic companies ruled manufacturing - these were the household names, the brands where everyone knew someone who worked there. Tim Sullivan led such companies - ones like Bucyrus, the REV Group and Gardner Denver. In 2021, the manufacturing sector looks much different. While some of these great companies are still around, more and more production work has moved to small-to-midsize businesses and tier one suppliers. And the challenge is, these SMBs can't find the workers they need.Today, Tim Sullivan chairs the Bucyrus Foundation, where he carries out the legacy of Bucyrus International by investing in the economic development and workforce of South Milwaukee. Tim joined us in a fascinating discussion on this evolution of manufacturing and how it's impacting the workforce today.Listen for insights into:Why manufacturing operations and administration need to be headquartered togetherHow the manufacturing sector has seen massive shifts in the last few decadesThe outlook of manufacturing in the U.S. in the next decadeThe challenge (and solution) of finding and training manufacturing employees todayWhere we went wrong with our definition of the American Dream - and what it really meansHow to build data-driven partnerships between education and industry
