Chicago journalist Ben Joravsky starts each show by riffing on the news of the day with his celebrated humor, insight, and honesty. Then he talks politics with activists, elected officials, journalists and all sorts of political know-it-alls. We talk Chicago, Illinois, national (lots of national), international and lefty politics. Find The Ben Joravsky Show wherever you download podcasts.
Ben discovers a copy of the Wall Street Journal on his front porch. His world will never be the same. Monroe Anderson asks: Does Trump control MAGA or does MAGA control Trump? And Miles Kampf-Lassin, editor of In These Times, has a question of his own: How can Democratic congressmen claim to be "moderate" when they're to the right of President Biden? Also, discussion of Afghanistan, budgets and vaccine mandates.
