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.
Republicans in Illinois want to end unemployment benefits because they say it's a disincentive to work. But when it comes to taking handouts for themselves, well, that's another story. Ben riffs. Also, 17th ward Alderman David Moore talks about his candidacy for secretary of state, his efforts to rename the outer drive for DuSable, and dealing with Mayor Lightfoot.
