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.
MAGA ranchers in Colorado forgive Trump even after he kills their much-needed water project out of spite. Ben riffs. Cook County Commissioner Jessica Vasquez explains why Chicago is a model for the Democrats to emulate—at least in her part of town on the northwest side. Also, the difference between the city council and the board of commissioners. And why she doesn’t support funding for a new Bears stadium, as much as she loves the team. Jessica represents the 8th district and is running for re-election.
