What Should Chicago Look Like in 2036? Past Guests Answer: Celebrating 50 Episodes of Chicago Stories

We made it to 50! To celebrate, host Ashley Phillips pulls producer Tanisha Blakely out from behind the laptop to look back on the moments that stuck with them most. They talk about past guests and play a Family Feud-style quiz on what 50 episodes of guests said they love most about Chicago and which spot gets recommended the most.

Then they ask past guests one question: what do you want to see change in Chicago over the next 10 years?

Sandra Steinbrecher (documentary photographer), Johnny Jones (of The Lingo Chicago), Allison Yates (of Read & Run Chicago), and Clare McDermott (of Active Transportation Alliance ) share their vision for Chicago.

Thank you to every guest who trusted us with your story. Here’s to 50 more!
