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.
As Trump wages war against Iran, Colman McCarthy, one of America’s great pacifists, dies at age 87. Ben riffs. David Faris explains Trump’s strategy—or lack thereof. How did we get into this morass? Netanyahu’s role in riling up Trump. The junior partner drives the bus. The spillover war in Lebanon. And finally, David makes his senate choice. David is a professor of political science at Roosevelt University and a columnist for The Nation. His views are his own.
