Podcast: The Podcast

Nov 22 2021 • 57 mins

In this week's episode, Justin and Thom discuss their love of Mexican food, and they welcome political wunderkind Fred Bilotto, the newly elected mayor of Blue Island, a small city that borders Chicago's South Side. The trio talk about Fred's rise to power as mayor that started when he was in 7th grade, the history and charm of Blue Island, who's in charge of the big scissors used for ribbon-cutting ceremonies, and which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle character would make the best mayor.
