This week we bring you highlights from the last hour of our live broadcast from the 12th annual How-To Festival! Forward Radio was thrilled to once again partner with the Louisville Free Public Library as the media sponsor of the How-To Festival held at the Main branch of the Public Library on Saturday, May 10, 2025.
