Welcome back to Books & Brews: Tales From the Frozen Tundra, where Packers stories are poured one pint at a time.
Episode 8 is the bonus behind-the-scenes finale, turning the spotlight toward Dr. Denni Towle and the seven-month journey of creating Tales From The Frozen Tundra: Superfans of Titletown.
The first seven episodes celebrated the superfans. This special Father’s Day episode explores the author, the inspiration, the emotional weight of preserving these stories, and the enormous amount of work behind the book.
Discover how a song written for Jeff Kahlow, the Frozen Tundra Man, led to interviews, new friendships, and a small digital-book idea that eventually grew into a 400+ page nonfiction project featuring 21 Packers superfans.
