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.
Marjorie Taylor Greene repents—sorta. Ben riffs. Jim Coogan talks law. The Tina Peters case in Colorado. Does Trump have the legal authority to pardon a convict convicted in state court? And the Judge Hannah Dugan case in Wisconsin. Should she be punished for an act of civil disobedience against a grotesque violation of human rights? Finally, a few words about Jim’s beloved “hook ‘n ladder” Bears. Jim is managing partner of Coogan Gallagher.
