A welcome podcast that can get better
I’m glad to have a Chicago podcast that is focused on parts of the city I don’t know much about. I like the length. I’m already saying “a little bit of news, y’all” along with Jacoby. I think the interviews have room for improvement. There have been too many times when I come away from these interviews not knowing the issues. Not that this has to be investigative journalism or that the interviews need to have an antiseptic coldness to them, but too much time is spent on Jacoby relating to his subjects rather than getting answers. Sometimes an interviewee doesn’t give a clear answer, and rather than asking for clarification, things tend to just move on. But it’s early days, and interviewing is an art.
