This morning, the Riverside Theater announced that former Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle will serve as the moderator for former Vice President Joe Biden's upcoming "American Promise" tour stop in Milwaukee on Sunday, Feb. 11.
For those spacing on their recent Wisconsin political history, Doyle served as governor for eight years (2003-2011), notably working with the White House, high-ranking administration officials and fellow governors on important policy areas like health care and energy.
And as for Joe Biden, well, you should also know who Joe Biden is. He was Vice President of the United States during the eight years of the Obama administration, and now he's touring the country in support of his recent memoir, "Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship and Purpose," about his 2015 coping with the duties of Vice President as well as his son Beau's battle with brain cancer.
Other moderators for Biden's tour stops have included Tom Brokaw, Stephen Colbert, Aaron Sorkin, Constance Wu and many other big names across the worlds of politics and entertainment.
Tickets for the Vice President's stop are on sale now, starting at $49.50. For more information on the show, visit the Riverside's website.
As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.
When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
