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.
In December 2019, a true Chicago legend, Edward "Buzz" Palmer, came to the studio to talk about his life as military man, internationally renown activist, retired Chicago Police Department officer and founder of the Afro-American Patrolmen's League. Mr. Palmer died in 2021.
