ANNIVERSARY SALE: One year with Civic Media!
We're celebrating one year with Civic Media with a subscription sale (35% off!) and a Brewers ticket giveaway (go Crew!!).
The Recombobulation Area is a 19-time Milwaukee Press Club award-winning opinion column and online publication founded by longtime Milwaukee journalist Dan Shafer. The Recombobulation Area is now part of Civic Media.
One year ago, we came to you here with some news: The Recombobulation Area was joining the Civic Media network.
How has it been one full year already? This is, frankly, rather discombobulating. Time sure does fly.
But after a year of new partnerships, new co-workers, new contributors, and countless radio appearances, we’re celebrating with a subscription sale. It’ll be 35% off for a full year subscription from now through Tuesday, Sept. 2.
Go to the Anniversary Sale page here.
That means a full-year subscription — typically a $50 value, the same as it’s been since we launched six years ago — is just $32.50 for the next week. You can support local, independent journalism in Milwaukee and Wisconsin, and save more than $17 doing it. Not bad, right?
But wait! There’s more!
Those who subscribe with this subscription deal will be eligible to win a pair of tickets to an upcoming Milwaukee Brewers game!
We’re giving away two pairs of Club Level tickets to the home game vs. the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday, Sept. 18. This deal applies to new and returning paid subscribers — really, anyone who takes advantage of this deal.
So, go subscribe, support our work, and enjoy another year of recombobulation!
Already subscribe? Give a gift subscription (yes, those are 35% off, too!).

Oh, and you can also now subscribe right in the Substack app.
So, get to it, folks! Let’s keep recombobulating.
