Is Chuy Garcia Controlling Congressional Race? Plus, a Visit to Feld

U.S. Rep. Jesus “Chuy” Garcia (4th) has been accused of thumbing the political scales in favor of his chosen successor.

Plus, the Obama Presidential Center celebrates queer history all year long, and host Jacoby Cochran reviews Chicago’s newest Michelin-starred restaurant, Feld.  Want some more City Cast Chicago news?
