Show Notes
Ald. Jim Gardiner apologized to his City Council colleagues this week after weeks of garnering headlines for the worst reasons—misogynistic texts, revelations that he could be withholding services from constituents and various ethics violation investigations. The apology was pretty, “Meh.” Host Jacoby Cochran talks about that story with the hosts of the new Chicago Reader podcast, “Chicago: Queer and Now,” who also share some stories that highlight queer joy in the city.
