On Saturday, March, 8th, 2025 we welcomed Isabel Olive and her Chicago based project, Half Gringa. Half Gringa creates music informed by contemporary indie-rock + Latin American and Midwestern folk. In this session, Izzy and host/Music Director, Abby Noroozi, chatted about the concept and the making of the new album, Cosmovisión – released on March 28th. They also chatted about heading to SXSW, touring with folk artist Lizzie No, growing up & influences, the Chicago music scene, and the show that night at The Blockhouse. We turn to an excerpt from that Firehouse Session on WFHB Rewind.

Up next – Youth Radio brings us the Miscellaneous Legumes podcast in collaboration with Harmony School. Episode 4 of Miscellaneous Legumes is all about the paranormal. The crew tells ghost stories and go on a paranormal investigation of their own at Harmony School. We turn now to Miscellaneous Legumes on WFHB Rewind.

That was episode 4 of the Youth Radio podcast Miscellaneous Legumes in collaboration between WFHB and Harmony School. Up next – from the news department – WFHB Correspondent Tom Muckerheide covers the long-awaited expansion of the Monroe Convention Center.
