Morning Swims, Secret Concerts, and Other Great Weekend Plans
There is just too much to do in Chicago every weekend. That’s why host Jacoby Cochran is talking with Hey Chicago editor Sidney Madden and City Cast marketing coordinator Jermaine Thomas, who are always on top of the latest events to check out in the city. Jermaine and Sidney compete to see who has the dopest weekend itinerary.
