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.
Jason Dones is running for school board from a district on Chicago’s northwest side. He explains the process and talks the issues, including: charters, budgets, police in schools and handouts to Bears (yes, it would come from CPS). The election is in November. Welcome to democracy, Chicago. You’re only about 100 years late to the game.
