Chicago

This is what a podcast should be. They are outside! Go to the locations in person and talk about it. Amazing!!!!!!

Umm Ameer ,

Really laughing out loud all the time

Don’t play this show in front of your kids lbvs! So informative and I definitely try to visit some of the historical places and try some of the restaurants that I’ve heard about from the podcast.
