    Ald. Gil Villegas - "Boris and Danny"

    Who’s more corrupt—Boris Epshteyn or Danny Solis. Ben riffs. Gil Villegas covers the bases. Are the current aldermen Jake Paul’s? Is there such a thing as the Latino vote? Why did Gallegos win and Kamala in Arizona? Is there really a crisis at the border or have we been gaslit by Donny? And is he running for mayor? Gil is alderman of the 36th ward.

    David Faris—2016 Again

    The Dems swore they wouldn’t go back. But back they went—to 2016. David Faris tells you everything you need to know about what went down last Tuesday. While Ben tries to stay sane. David is a political science professor at Roosevelt University and a columnist for Slate and Newsweek. His views are his own.

    Flint Taylor--The Big Lie

    In preparation of publication of his latest book on the assassination of Fred Hampton, Flint Taylor talks about the role of the FBI, and the police in the murder and the role of Mayor Richard J. Daley and the media in the coverup. Not the finest of moments for the Tribune, that's for sure. Everything you need to know about that day in infamy and its ongoing relevance. They just lied, lied, lied. Hampton was killed 55 years ago--on December 4, 1969 as he was sleeping in his apartment at 2337 W. Monroe right here in Chicago. A radical lawyer, Flint represented Hampton's family in 13 years of litigation.

    Meredith Shiner—Bring In The Clowns

    Meredith Shiner and Ben talk all things Trump II—the early days. We’d be laughing if the consequences weren’t so painful. Meredith is a political columnist for The New Republic.

    Sergio Vicente--Entitled Brats

    Sergio Vicente explains how the rise of Jake Paul is a metaphor for the age of Trump. An age of women-hating white guys, entitled brats. Don't get him started. Also, a few words about the Black vote. And was the Mike Tyson fight rigged? And could he, Sergio, beat Jake Paul, if he had a year to get back into prime fight shape? And then a little icing on the cake--the great LeBron-MJ debate. Sergio hosts The Fight podcast.

    Mark Wallace - "Book Ban"

    MAGA says they hate censorship but loves banning books. Ben riffs. Podcaster Mark Wallace predicts a day of reckoning for this country is just ahead. He predicts Mitch O’Connell will close out his career by doing something he’s never done before—the right thing. And he riffs on the myth of the “Black-Brown” coalition.

    Peter Cunningham - "Justice 4 Jussie"

    Breaking News—Illinois Supremes overturn Jussie conviction. Ben riffs. Peter Cunningham talks lessons learned from the election. As the show’s resident centrist—every lefty show needs one—he says the Dems lost the message battle. Ben says—any old white guy could have beat Trump. And they’re off. Also, Mayor Johnson budget talk. Are city council “independents” the Jake Pauls of local politics? Peter is a political strategist who once wrote speeches for Mayor Daley.

    Monroe Anderson - "Jake Paul Alderman"

    If you want to know why Chicago’s aldermen are talking tough to Mayor Johnson, think Jake Paul challenging a 58-year-old Mike Tyson. Ben riffs. Monroe talks local and national politics. Including Rahm, Trump, Gaetz, and the NFL. Will football ban players who do the Trump dance like they banned Colin Kaepernick? I think we all know the answer.
