Listen "WBEZ’s Weekly News Recap: Aug. 9, 2024"
Episode Synopsis
What happened this week? Well, Kamala Harris tapped a Midwesterner to join the top of the Democratic ticket – and it wasn’t JB Pritzker. After breaking a long losing streak, the Chicago White Sox also lost manager Pedro Grifol. And on its 20th anniversary, we remember the Dave Matthews Band and “poopgate.”
Reset digs into those stories and more in the Weekly News Recap. Our panel this week: Mitchell Armentrout, Chicago Sun-Times government and politics reporter, Kim Bellware, Washington Post national and breaking news reporter, and Michael Puente, WBEZ reporter and Sunday anchor.
