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.
Another day another alderperson announces they're not running for re-election. In this case, it's Alderwoman Sue Sadlowski Garza. Ben riffs. Tribune political reporter Gregory Pratt returns to talk alderpeople leaving. Why? What does it bode for the future? And Miles Kampf Lassin, editor/writer for In These Times, talks Biden cancelling student debt and whether Dems can handle the MAGA blowback.
