KWBU, Waco Public Radio is super excited to announce that once again, we're teaming up with Brotherwell Brewing for Summer Nights 2026!

Eight weeks of family-friendly fun, giveaways, games, food trucks, live music and more. Every Friday night from June 5 to July 31, make Brotherwell Brewing your home base this Summer.

In addition to a sizzling season of unique events, we're also bringing back 'Mug Club'.

New contributing listeners who sign up at the $20 a month level (and current contributors who increase their giving by the same amount) will receive a limited edition, newly designed, KWBU x Brotherwell pint stein.

But wait, there's more...

Bring that gorgeous piece of swag with you each week, and the first drink is on us!

Keep your eyes peeled for regular updates on what you can expect over the coming weeks, and get ready for a truly fantastic Summer experience!

Looking for something to do this Memorial Day weekend? How about curl up with a new book, then meet some new friends next month to talk about it!

Every month, KWBU listeners meet to discuss a book originally reviewed in our Likely Stories segment. 📚 It's always a lively discussion and we hope you'll join us!

In May, we'll meet to discuss "Trust" by Hernan Diaz.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is under fire for a plea deal his prosecutors offered last month to a Waco man charged with repeatedly s*xually abusing a young boy.

Inside the Waco child s*x abuse case Ken Paxton's office agreed to settle for one day in jail The judge in the case insisted on a 60-day jail sentence. The controversy has roiled Texas politics and led critics to question the attorney general's ability to adequately prosecute crime.
