Best Time to Book Holiday Travel & Real ID Requirements

AAA recently checked out data from the last three years to pinpoint the best times to book flights for the holidays. The Midwest Director of Public Affairs for AAA, Nick Jarmusz, joins us to reveal the best weeks this year to buy tickets and which dates you should select to save the most money.

We also talk about the Real ID Act which fully goes into effect on October 1, 2020. You have less than a year to get a Real ID if you plan to fly in the U.S. after that date. Learn what makes the new ID unique, what prompted the change, and how to get one.

Unplugged Artistic Events

Meet the woman who creates photo shoots so unique and grand, they become events! The owner of Unplugged Artistic Event Planning and Studios takes us inside her insanely creative photo shoots. Learn where her inspiration comes from, how she picks the locations, and why photographers and models from across the country are traveling to participate in the events. We even create a mini-version at the CBS 58 studios.

O&H Danish Bakery Celebrates 70 Years

It’s a big milestone for a family business that started in Racine. O&H Danish Bakery is celebrating 70 years by throwing a community celebration and bringing back the Brandy Old Fashioned Kringle. The co-owner, Eric Olesen, explains what events are planned for the celebration. He also takes us back in time to the days when his family opened their first storefront.
