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 & Maya host November's First Tuesday show at a new location--the Nighthawk on Kimball. On tap--the coming elections. Especially judicial. Especially the Supremes. No, not the Diana Ross Supremes. But the seven justices of the state supreme court. If MAGA seizes control of that court, they will be in position to undo abortion rights, collective bargaining rights and environmental regulations. Attorney Ed Mullen and political strategist Michilla Blaise explain what's at stake. Also, shout out to Mo Dunne & Amanda Miley at Injustice Watch for working so diligently to get this together--without you, there would be no show.
