Look, the restaurant idea is great, but can you do the Dr. Turner interview in one of the fully-loaded D65 Explorers? Clearly someone else can drive you two around. Maybe 15 mins of interview and 15 mins of carpool karaoke? Gotta find the J factor somewhere!
Please ask folks associated with the DPOE if they still stand by the endorsement of Samantha Steele for Cook County Board of Review.
For those who haven't seen this story, Steele got busted for a DUI last Sunday and was responsible for a car crash. Cops found her with an open bottle of wine in her car, she refused a sobriety test, and she made disparaging remarks to the cops.
Thank you Tom for sharing information the average taxpayer (parent, senior, renter, business owner, etc.) can appreciate. It is hard to separate the real "public servants" from those who only see working in Education, as a "job". I wait to see the candidates's platform for reform in D65 and 202. I wish them well!
You had me at the example of comments about Dept of Education 😂. Sounds like you are going to be putting in more time so I threw a few shekels your way. Regarding your future podcasts, I would listen. Please ask questions of curiosity and clarification, not gotcha questions.
Absolutely not going to ask gotcha questions or else nobody will do the pod! I intend every episode to be a friendly discussion of issues and politics, not a hard hitting interview circuit. Less Frost/Nixon and more modern podcast style.
I have a much sharper tongue when I write than in person
I do hope you ask each school board candidate point blank: do you pledge to conduct an open superintendent search process where multiple finalists are brought to town, their names are public, and there is a public forum for interacting with the community?
It is absolutely not a gotcha question and one which was not asked by the DPOE last time or any of the other forums I saw.

Dying 😂
You need to do the interviews at Grecian Kitchen.

DPOE endorsed her in 2022. (Original link: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=418564337130807&set=a.152749380378972 Archived link: https://archive.ph/Yx9HA
Jonah Meadows has a good piece on some other controversy she's been involved in: https://patch.com/illinois/evanston/drunken-cook-county-board-review-member-crashes-chicago-police
Christian Sorensen was #2 at the DPOE when they endorsed her in 2022.
I haven't seen any comment from Biss or Morita on the latest incident. In my estimation she should step down.

Oops, meant to put Overcast in the podcasting platform answer. Please add that as an option if possible.
You're not the only one - I had no idea overcast was so popular!!

Yeah I'll definitely bring that subject up
