Can't praise enough
I discovered Chicago Public Radio after returning home from college. I used to listen to the show every morning while looking for a job. Now I'm really glad that I can listen to this convenient podcast on the way home from work. This is a first-rate source for Chicago news from an intellectual, insightful source. Thanks to all the staff at WBEZ who make this happen.
No Stars!

I've been away from home for six years serving in the military. Every day I listen on my way to work regardless if I'm in a combat zone or on Highway 101 this podcast makes keeps me in touch with the city and people I love. They cover in depth national issues too so you don't have to be from Chicago to follow the #1 Chicago podcast!
