About this episode
The episode discusses upcoming rain, election news regarding independent candidates, and local music events including a performance by Lucy Dacus.
Rain could be returning to the Chicago area this weekend, which could potentially help improve the poor air quality we’ve seen. Judges with the Illinois State Board of elections do not think two independent candidates should be on the ballot in the state's fourth congressional district. The 19th annual Silver Room Sound System Block Party returns this Saturday. Plus, indie rocker Lucy Dacus performs this weekend in Millennium Park. She is backed by the Chicago Philharmonic, and it’s a full circle moment of sorts.
