  • Could be better

    Please get a better editor for the pod. I don’t understand why a report is interrupted with a commercial when there are ads before and after each episode

  • Great for local Chicago news

    It's essentially the local news spots that air throughout the day over the air. Nice to just get a quick roundup for a Chicagoan, or for anyone who is interested in local Chicago news. Sound mixing was a little rough but they will hopefully sort that out.
