The Mincing Rascals this week are Eric Zorn, Publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, Brandon Pope, host of ‘On the Block‘ on WCIU, political pundit Marj Halperin, and Cate Plys, former staff writer at the Chicago Reader and political op-ed columnist at the Sun-Times and Tribune. The Rascals start this week’s show by discussing the results of the Iowa caucuses. Is there a path for DeSantis or Haley? Or is the GOP race already over? How excited are the Rascals for another Trump v. Biden rematch? A big local story over the weekend was when the widow of Jerry Krause was booed during the Bulls’ Ring of Honor ceremony. Cate believes the Bulls should have seen this coming! What do the rest of the Rascals think? The Rascals talk about the controversial topic of bike lanes in Chicago. Where do the Rascals stand? And trivia: Which Mincing Rascal doesn’t know how to ride a bike?? Oh, and finally, the Rascals discuss the books and TV shows they enjoyed in 2023.
