    Nov 26 2025
    BBBS of Metro Milwaukee has been supporting helpful mentoring relationships in the Milwaukee area for more than 50 years now. And it's truly our volunteer mentors who enable us to make such a massive impact on the community. In this episode, we meet Trevor, a community-based Big Brother who’s putting other men on notice to step up and take a stake in their community. And then we connect with Big Sister Betsy, who matched six years ago with her Little Sister Unasia, but didn’t realize she was basically getting ANOTHER mentee, Unasia’s twin sister Unique!

    39. Exploring New Interests, From Sailing to Archeology, with Glen & Nathan
    Oct 29 2025
    Some folks just don't know how to be bored. That's why, when Little Brother Nathan met his new Big Brother Glen, he knew they would be a great match. No matter what they found to talk about, they were both super interested and wanted to learn more. Now, years later, the pair has turned their broad interests into all kinds of diverse hobbies, including sailing with the Sea Scouts, working on bicycles and participating in archaeological digs. And, as a result, Nathan has so many different options when it comes to his plans for the future.

    38. Matching Each Other's Vibe, with Marchelle & Bella
    Sep 24 2025
    Little Sister Bella doesn't let just anyone into her life. As a freshman in high school, she's at that age where it's not "cool" to get excited about anything, and she's got to play it off chill not matter what. But when she met her Big Sister Marchelle a little more than a year ago, that started to change. Together, they've learned to match "each other's vibe," taking turns picking activities, trying new things together, and never "yucking" someone else's "yum." In this episode, we learn about their adventures together, including ice skating, making cookies, live theater and sampling weird candy from TikTok.
