Zines have been a part of the punk music subculture since it began in the 1970s. These do-it-yourself publications help provide a snapshot of a community. KMUW's Hugo Phan spoke with three people trying to document Wichita’s punk scene through their own zine.

Plus more on these stories:

  • Wichita residents have a final chance to address the City Council before it adopts its proposed 2026 budget.
  • Schools in Kansas must show videos on fetal development in some classes under a new state law. But it’s unclear how schools will do it.
  • Twelve states will soon be able to exclude certain junk foods from purchases using the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. This means grocers will have to accommodate the rules.
  • Technology and agriculture are fusing, allowing farmers to monitor their fields with drones.
  • The University of Kansas will rededicate its football stadium to honor students and faculty killed during World War 1.
  • The Learning Disabilities Association of America says one in five school children nationally have a learning disability like dyslexia. A conference is coming to Pittsburg, Kansas, focused on the learning disability.
