Hey everyone, welcome back to Milwaukee on Cuts. So Bree and I got to go on a podcast hosted by our friend Josh Albricht of Visit Milwaukee and a man with the exact same name, Josh Albricht, who is mainly of Wisconsin Sports Radio Network, and they co-host Joshin Around Milwaukee, which is Visit Milwaukee's flagship podcast. We had a great time going on that show, and we don't talk that much about our story or the story of Milwaukee Uncut or even our favorite things to do around the city on this podcast, mainly audio. We do do more of that on social. But anyway, had a great time and decided that we should just run this episode on our platform. So we're running our episode of Joshing Around this week. Before diving in, I want to thank our partners who make Milwaukee Uncut possible. We'll kick it off with Nikola, the Midwest Law Firm Injured. Get Nicolet and Russ and the team will take great care of you. That is Nikola. Drink Wisconsin Wheat Beverage Company, best vodka brandy and canned cocktails in the game, available at bars and liquor stores across the state, and at the drink Wisconsin Way Pub right across from the Pfizer. And now, as of this week, as of opening day, at Ampham, they got a new bar there in Wrightfield. Make sure to go to the Drink Wisconsin Blee Pub. I believe it's still called that, the Drink Wisconsin Blee Pub. If not, it does say Drink Wisconsin Blea. All over it in Wright Field.

SPEAKER_04

2:00

Hi everyone, and welcome into another episode of Josh and Around Milwaukee. My name is Josh Albrecht, and with me as always is Hey, it's Josh Albrecht. That's right, Josh Albrecht and Josh Albrecht. And we are very, very excited to have on the show today our guests Bree and Richie from Milwaukee Uncut. Welcome, guys. Thanks for being here.

SPEAKER_00

2:17

Thanks for having us. Thanks for having us.

SPEAKER_04

2:19

So uh first and foremost, if you don't know about Milwaukee Uncut, you're not spending enough time looking at a screen because they are everywhere. But talk to us a little bit about uh how you guys came to find the idea and put Milwaukee Uncut together.

SPEAKER_02

2:33

I started a show in 2016, so I was podcasting for a while and we had a marketing agency and the show. Um Bree and I have been together for Ten years. About a decade or so. Holy cow. I love the pause. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

2:52

That's how we react to too. I'm like, we've been together how long has it been that we've been doing this?

SPEAKER_02

2:58

There there could be some pauses in us looking at each other through throughout the show. Just just a warning, we we are engaged now, we need to be doing a better job at wedding planning at the at the moment. Um But anyway, we uh when did we started working together maybe four-ish years ago? Um you were a data analyst.

SPEAKER_00

3:17

Yeah, so doing totally something different before. Um, but yeah, joined on when your director of operations had left. I was kind of looking for a new thing, didn't really know what I was looking for, so we kind of thought it was a great time to try working together. We're not always recommend working with your significant other, but for us it's worked out great.

SPEAKER_02

3:38

Kind of a desperate moment in time for both of us, actually, where I'm a very disorganized person and our my ops director left, and I was like, what what am I what am I gonna do? And you were uh mining data on agricultural websites.

SPEAKER_03

3:53

And that's really when Milwaukee Uncut took off. Like that's when the you guys really went all in.

SPEAKER_02

4:00

So it it was a little later than that. That was in 21 or 22 that happened.

SPEAKER_00

4:05

I think 22.

SPEAKER_02

4:06

22. And then um business kind of started going downhill after that happened. We had the marketing agency, we lost a couple big accounts. Um our show, our old show is kind of going down to in downloads. So luckily we had a kind of a good year before then. We had some some money and decided not to throw in the towel and hey, let's rebrand and and build out a studio, which you've been to, which is where we are now. And we launched Milwaukee on cut and story mark studios in the spring of 23, so almost three years ago. And I thought Milwaukee on cut was gonna take off right away. I like the brand. We had a good lineup for in those like first six episodes. I think the Mayor Chevy came on and Deaner Novak and Tommy G, the YouTuber. And I kind of like I think cashed in on all the connections I had to really try and like blow that up. And I liked the brand. And uh, we launched it and it was kind of crickets right away. And we ended up shutting it down after the first six episodes from like that August till December. And we were like we built up a backlog, changed our video format, got a different video editor in then December of 23, so a little over two years ago, that's when it started taking off.

SPEAKER_00

5:21

Yeah, I think we also we started doing in the field videos too, outside of our studio, and I think that also really helped to um up our social.

SPEAKER_03

5:31

Yeah, for sure. I mean, I've seen a few of those where it's like you're at a Packers game and getting the getting the scoop from the tailgating area. Yeah. Um maybe a few jabs that are neighbors to the south uh to help that along. Uh but you've also gone across the the state too over the last year, right? A few other sort of travel jaunts across the state.

SPEAKER_02

5:48

And that that's thanks to you and your team a little bit too. I know we did that campaign around the draft last year, and you guys made some nice intros, and we've got to do stuff around the state now with some other cities, and then sometimes we'll just randomly pop into places and towns if we're on the road and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_03

6:03

And we just a few dive bar episodes and yeah, some fun stuff.

SPEAKER_02

6:07

I think Nuts Deep was one of our most popular videos of all time over in Marshfield, one out of the way to the establishment after uh after I randomly saw a uh place called Raw Dog on the side of the road when I was driving to Sheboygan and checked it out. I didn't, I thought it might be a bar, a gentleman's club or something, and ended up being a health pet food store. Of course, very well. I remember going in front of in front of the sign and being like, You won't believe what I just found, and then the owner's like, you know, middle-aged older Sheboygan guy ripping a dart in the parking lot. Hey, you like the name? And then turned out he didn't even know uh turned out he didn't even know what what it meant, and it ended up being a really wholesome video about a guy who just wanted to help dogs live longer lives and has a pet food store out there. So yeah, we just try and make you know fun, entertaining Milwaukee slash Wisconsin content and uh Yeah as far as like an elevator statement, is that it?

SPEAKER_03

7:04

Fun, entertaining content celebrating the Wisconsin culture.

SPEAKER_02

7:07

Yeah, the the mission's to bring Milwaukee and Wisconsin together through non-traditional news entertainment and experiences. So yeah, it's a it's a social media show, a podcast, uh a newsletter, and pretty much everything correlates with with that mission and bringing people together, putting smiles on people's faces, and giving giving back as well.

SPEAKER_04

7:26

I mean, I also I I don't want us to bury the lead. So you guys are engaged. She's actually wearing her ring today. A lot of times she does not um how did how did that tell us that story? How did this all come to be from because it wasn't wasn't like you guys were together and then came up with the idea to do Milwaukee on cut, right? Or was it you guys were were together but not engaged? Tell me the story how'd this all how'd you two come together?

SPEAKER_03

7:53

Oh that's a the company who nobody he doesn't care about it.

SPEAKER_00

7:59

Give me the Milwaukee love story, baby. I feel like you're good at telling the story.

SPEAKER_02

8:05

So I I was what about 27-ish. I was hosting a student office visit day for Marquette University at my marketing agency at the time, and Brie happened to be on that visit day.

SPEAKER_00

8:18

We do have an age gap.

SPEAKER_02

8:19

Yeah, about six, seven years or so. Um I do want to make it clear I did not hit on her while I was putting on the office visit, but we did I did think she was very attractive, and we didn't happen to match on Tinder about a uh a month later. And I didn't know if I should should swipe right because she was on on the student office visit. Yeah, and I thought you were I figured the only way she would know if I swiped is if she would also swipe, and then it wouldn't be a bad thing.

SPEAKER_00

8:45

So Yeah, I thought you were super old at the time. I was like, oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_02

8:51

I was 27, I had hair. I would love to go back to the right.

SPEAKER_00

8:54

When you're 21, anyone outside of like 23 is ancient.

SPEAKER_02

9:00

Uh uh. Yeah, no, I got this going on. But um, yeah, so anyway, we we we matched. Oh my first date. Yeah, I had a first date at Balzac over off Brady RIP. That was that was a great spot. And um, we have essentially been to been together since. Yeah. Although Brie did send me like uh a thank you note after the visit, and then I sent her an email, not like directly asking her out, but oh, thanks for sending that if you want to grab coffee sometime.

SPEAKER_04

9:29

I did not have to be able to super interest, but yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

9:33

She left me on ice, but uh yeah, then we matched on Tinder and we have been together ever since. Yeah, nice. And now very happily, very happily, and now together at work and at home.

SPEAKER_04

9:43

You guys killing it. All right, doesn't stop. That's uh that's awesome. I was gonna be so mad at myself if we didn't get that in. No. And when we come back, we will dive in to Milwaukee and Cut, what you guys are doing, what you guys have coming up, and more. Stay tuned on Josh and Around Milwaukee.

SPEAKER_01

10:00

This is Visit Milwaukee's Joshing Around Milwaukee on WTMJ.

SPEAKER_04

10:05

Welcome back, everyone, to Josh and Around Milwaukee. Josh Albreck here, Josh Albrick there. We're having a great time with Bree and Richie from Milwaukee Uncut. Um, if you missed the first segment where we talked about everything, including the love story, you'll want to go back and listen to that. But let's get into Milwaukee Uncut and specifically the the point when it blew up, what you guys have going on now, and uh and and what we can look forward to going forward.

SPEAKER_02

10:32

When it specifically blew up, so like I alluded to in the first part, it kind of we changed the video format. I think the first moment where I was like, I can't believe this is happening, we posted a video with Milverine on how far he walks per day. And you know, I'm probably used to getting like 15, 20 likes on an Instagram post or something like that. And I remember just hitting refresh like five minutes later and being like, Oh, oh my god, like this like a hundred likes, two hundred likes. And I think that video got a couple hundred thousand views, and then we had a couple more that did well. But I think the it might it might have been where to meet women in Milwaukee. One that one did well. I remember um I put my buddy Ben Anderson, who was uh uh at Colliers over there. I found a shirtless photo of him on Facebook because anyone who's posting shirtless photos on Facebook deserves to have that that plastered all over the internet. So I think I put a I think I put a Ben is curious of him him on a beach where where to meet women or if Joe Cats is the right place to meet women or something like that. So I mean we just we just started doing that and then experimenting and like Bree was saying, uh we ended up going out in the field, it would have been the the next fall at a brewer tailgate and interviewed um yeah, Owen and Casey from Whitewater, who actually came to the Uncut Open at Ampham last week. We keep in touch with a bunch of those people and uh that stuff started doing well, and it's just been continually finding what's working, trying to just do more and get better at that constantly. And then yeah, started the newsletter around this time last year, and that's um done well too, and add some sanity because we kind of know how many people are gonna open those opposed to the videos, which again go like that.

SPEAKER_04

12:15

Sure. So so what what do you see now being in this world and and media of of seeing uh the landscape of Milwaukee and the media to how do you see that changing as you go through? Because you said how you know you weren't even really sure that this was gonna come on, you know, take off and and now it has. How do you stay kind of ahead of the curve with Milwaukee uncut?

SPEAKER_02

12:39

Um I mean it's changes so fast and the algorithms can switch to it's a lot to uh stay on, but I think it's just having that mindset of you know, you the good the good thing about the environment today is you get instant feedback. It can be the good and bad thing, like I know if something's gonna do well ten minutes after I post it, usually, or not do well. Sometimes you get surprised, and sometimes we create something that we think is gonna do really well and we guess wrong, and sometimes it's something not that'll take off. So it is still kind of a crapshoot on social media. So I I don't know. We're just always seeing what's working and trying to trying to get better. I mean, social media content in general. I'm always thinking of is this something people are gonna save? Is this something people are gonna share? Where are people gonna drop off in the video? What second could people drop off? And um Rick can allude to I'm I'm a I'm a mess in real life and very, very detailed when it comes to that stuff.

SPEAKER_03

13:37

Well, I would imagine your background in data and as a data analyst goes into some of the like analytics of social media, following it, figuring out what's what's working, not working. You take any of that old knowledge of sort of office work into this more fun, crazy content creator.

SPEAKER_00

13:53

Yeah, I mean there's so much data too that you can gather within um the different platforms, and especially Facebook gets gives you great metrics. So you you are able to figure out kind of like trends from that. It's kind of funny. I I'm actually a I would say I'm a type B person when it kind of comes to um how performance of the videos, I'm kind of like, uh, video didn't perform, let's just move on, like let's try something different. Whereas Richie's a little bit more tied to a better job of the numbers a little bit.

SPEAKER_04

14:25

Yeah. Well, I would tell you if you can try to have both people that are hosting it have the same exact name. That's that's that's what we have. It might be hard for us to us to do.

SPEAKER_02

14:36

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

14:37

I don't know, Richie and Richie? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

14:39

I mean, we do we we do have very opposite skill sets. Breeze uh Breeze patient and organized and um yeah works for us.

SPEAKER_03

14:51

Yeah. You have a a super crazy idea uh out there. You have you have like like a whiteboard of crazy ideas, you just jot them down all the time, like tomorrow we're gonna throw pumpkins off a roof. You know, is there something like just wild that you have in in mind for the future? Pumpkins off roof. Yeah, you're gonna use it.

SPEAKER_02

15:07

That the pumpkins off the roof, that is all yours. We will not steal that one. Good. Next Halloween season.

SPEAKER_00

15:13

Um we do have a whiteboard at our office where we do brainstorm kind of like all the content that we do have, events coming up, um new ideas that we think could perform well. So we do brainstorm with our team. Um and even like yesterday, we had a writer's room um kind of meeting where we went over like scripts kind of bringing different ideas from each person. So we do stuff a lot of brainstorming like.

SPEAKER_03

15:40

Do you take reader requests or watcher requests? Is anybody like going into the DMs and be like, Walkie Uncut needs to go to a brewer's game and do XYZ?

SPEAKER_02

15:48

Yeah, for go for going to places, we'll get a bunch of comments in the videos. Um, so so that can be helpful. Um, I mean, we get a bunch of people nominating singles for our gem of the week, our bachelor, our customers gem of the week, our bachelor, bachelorette of the week on the email list. So yeah, we definitely get inspired by what about middle-aged dad of the week? Can I apply for that one? I think we will put you in. We are gonna fool the audience with a great time.

SPEAKER_04

16:14

Yeah, with a much better hairline than Richie. Yeah, you can have way more submissions for that, by the way. Like 10 times the amount.

SPEAKER_02

16:21

I think we're gonna test that. You know, we're our Monday send is newer. I think there's room for that in there. And and you'll be the honorary first.

SPEAKER_03

16:30

Yeah, with my wife next to with next to me with an eye roll. I was I was gonna say I was gonna say, what is what is the meaning of the although I don't know how that Josh? What is this? Yeah. No, I didn't say it was for singles. I said just featuring dads. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Dads deserve to be featured too.

SPEAKER_02

16:45

We do we do do a uh yeah, we do do a Milwaukee end of the week. We do like highlighting people doing good things in the in the community. We do that every Friday, but I like the the the dad angle as well.

SPEAKER_03

16:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

16:57

Well, I wanna I want to talk too about why the idea of Milwaukee Uncut works in the city of Milwaukee. You know, obviously we talk about all the amazing things that Milwaukee has to offer, and we're gonna get into that and how people can, as Josh alluded to, be a part, give ideas, and help Milwaukee Uncut grow. When we come back on Josh and Around Milwaukee. Stay tuned. Hey guys, just wanted to take a quick break in the action to ask a question.

Yeah, we got a little this or that. Because you guys do all kinds of super fun, amazing stuff on Milwaukee Uncut. There's all kinds of just crazy questions you ask people, uh, like I was saying at the tailgate thing or just in even in studio, you do best date night spots, all kinds of stuff. So I'm gonna give you a little this or that. You guys gotta answer in real time. Audience members, no, they have not seen these questions because these are hard hitting.

SPEAKER_04

19:42

They're all amazing. Well, we'd love to give custard tours to guests. That's what we do. Hit like five or six different spots and it's a good thing. That would be a good video. We could collaborate on something like that. We'll do it anytime. Lakefront or river walk? I'm going lakefront. Yeah. Are you I'm not talking brewery here. I'm talking water sources.

SPEAKER_02

20:04

I'm at the lakefront a lot. I love South Shore Park. Yeah. And I do love a hot spell. I've actually been jumping the lake.

SPEAKER_05

20:13

Yeah? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

20:14

That's awesome. But I do like stopping out. You've got to clarify that it's Lake Friory, not the brewery. I do like stopping at Lakefront on the river. I like doing the Eagle Park walk across the bridge and go to Lakefront, which is right around the river. And I do like the harp as well, so that doesn't mean I dislike the river.

SPEAKER_03

20:30

I know. Well, these are tough choices to choose between these two. They are Milwaukee's a great town. So I apologize.

SPEAKER_04

20:35

You're right. You didn't need to clarify it.

SPEAKER_03

20:37

All right, this is this is a general one that the team came up with, and uh I want to see where this goes. Daytime or nighttime in Milwaukee.

SPEAKER_02

20:44

I'm going daytime. I'm I've gotten a little older in Crogedy. I do like I do like going out during the day and having a good time.

SPEAKER_00

20:51

You like Milwaukee farmers' markets in Milwaukee are amazing in the summer. They are.

SPEAKER_02

20:55

It's not exactly what I was thinking for daytime, but yeah, I really have a big golf.

SPEAKER_00

20:59

Richie's a big daytime drinker.

SPEAKER_02

21:00

Okay. Oh, okay. Just on like the Lake Brother. Which Lake Brother? Are we talking about great breweries? We got great bars, we got good sporting events. I'm excited to go to the Marquette game and then hop on. All right. We'll get some content on the shuffle this weekend. So speaking of day drinking, I know I know you guys are all out really well on this show.

SPEAKER_03

21:21

This is great.

SPEAKER_02

21:22

Daytime. I know you guys are talking about. Only on Saturday sometimes.

SPEAKER_03

21:26

You do have a special beer. So we're joking day drinking, but you guys have a special beer with three sheeps, the tropical pale ale launched last summer in 2025. What what's the what's the flavor profile of the tropical pale ale?

SPEAKER_02

21:45

Tropical toppy. I'd have to talk to Grant and Dr. Nate over there to get the full flavor rundown. I'd take it to the flavor they they brewed it, which is why it's so good. I had no part in that, but it was a it was. Awesome and it's coming back this July.

SPEAKER_03

22:02

Oh, nice. So another summer summer drum.

SPEAKER_04

22:06

Does it taste better if you're drinking it before 3 p.m.?

SPEAKER_02

22:11

I mean, I think I think it tastes good at all all hours almost. If you're drinking one along the way, it does hit nice outside. We had we had we recently, because Third Street, they had the last keg. So um we did a July and January happy hour, and Tropical Paleo still tasted good in January. There you go.

SPEAKER_03

22:29

I can actually think of a better time.

SPEAKER_02

22:30

Yeah. Take it. Take the tropical. We put some inflatable palm trees up right over there. It was good. But yeah, I don't want to butcher the exact flavor profile, but uh Dr. Nate Grant's tropical with all the T. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

22:47

I actually thought you were gonna go, well, it's tropical and it's uh and it's a pale ale. Uh there we go.

SPEAKER_02

22:53

It is uh 5.8% ABV, I do know that because with my hangovers these days, I do kind of do a mental pitch count and uh try and be productive the next days, which is also why I prefer going out earlier than later. Okay, it all comes back to the road. It's rough, especially if I go down the IPA train. I mean, you sometimes you're waking up. I mean, because I can pound those, and uh, you know, yeah. Sometimes you're waking up at three okay, I'll be back. I digress. I digress. Thanks for cutting me off. Probably don't need that out there.

SPEAKER_03

23:22

One last this or that. Okay. I'm a huge keeping up the the beer, the beer theme, going to the brewer stadium. It's the sausage race. Who are you cheering for? I'm going chorizo. Yes! Yes, chorizo every time. I'm a hard I'm always, always on chorizo.

SPEAKER_04

23:40

You know, the underdog story, always for chorizo. You know? Never gets never gets enough wins.

SPEAKER_00

23:46

There's the Italian. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02

23:49

I knew it, I know, I know it's a few. She's like going to be a big thing. Isn't there just the normal bratwurst? Normal bratwurst, yeah. Is there another one? The Polish. There is okay. I know I know my brewers sausages.

SPEAKER_03

24:05

SPEAKER_00

24:06

I'm gonna with the hot dog.

SPEAKER_03

24:08

Classic. Way to go out there. Way to go out on a list. The hot dog does win a lot, Josh. Who's yours? The brat. Bratwurst. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

24:14

Chairman. Albrecht. Go crew. Go crew. Yep. Oh, absolutely. So excited for the for the season. I can't wait for a custard collab.

SPEAKER_03

24:24

Custard collab.

SPEAKER_04

24:25

Sorry, you said that like four minutes ago, my brain has been a little bit more.

SPEAKER_03

24:28

No, that'll be a good video.

SPEAKER_02

24:28

We could just roam around and uh would you actually eat the custard? Yeah. I just it gives me a bad stomachache. I don't know why.

SPEAKER_00

24:34

I'm also lactose intolerant, so this should be a great video.

SPEAKER_04

24:39

This is a slam dunk. We got nothing to worry about.

SPEAKER_02

24:42

So long as we don't have to take down like a pint at each each place. I think so.

SPEAKER_04

24:46

I think and then in between you drink a tropical pale ale on the way to the next one.

SPEAKER_03

24:50

Yeah, some sort of new like social challenge, right? You can throw up the fastest.
