Are Chicago Food Halls Worth It?

Wednesday, April 10, 2024 • Duration 24:51

Food halls with multiple vendors have proliferated around Chicago the past several years. But to be honest, no one on the City Cast Chicago team had given them much thought.

Host Jacoby Cochran, executive producer Simone Alicea, and newsletter editor Sidney Madden visited six spots and they talk about what to eat, what to know before you go, and if they’ll come back. Spots mentioned Revival Food Hall Urbanspace 88 Marketplace Chicago French Market X Market Gangnam Market Some good news: Chicago Tea Festival Want some more City Cast Chicago news?

How an Indiana Lawsuit Against Gunmakers Impacts Chicago

Monday, April 8, 2024 • Duration 22:56

Last month, the city of Chicago filed a lawsuit against gun manufacturer Glock, arguing that the company has done nothing to prevent individuals from modifying their popular semi-automatic handguns into fully automatic weapons. ProPublica’s Midwest reporter Vernal Coleman tells host Jacoby Cochran about a similar lawsuit in Gary, Indiana, where the city has been trying to hold gunmakers accountable for the illegal sale of guns for 25 years.

Chicago’s first school board elections take place this November.
