Lions, Steppin’ Music, and Lake Shore Drive
Host Jacoby Cochran breaks down what happened in Chicago this week with The Triibe co-founder and editor-in-chief Tiffany Walden. They talk about the debate over renaming Lake Shore Drive after Jean Baptiste DuSable, rent relief for Chicagoans, and a potential plan to improve the intersection at 79th Street, Stony Island Avenue, and South Chicago Avenue. They also make a discovery about a popular steppin’ track and share their strong opinions about lions in the Lincoln Park Zoo.
