Agree with the sentiment that Chicagoans love Chicago. How about You Didn't See Nothin? https://t.co/9KVeqPiWqv and The Nerdette?https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nerdette/id658467561

I wonder why it is so important to you to convert your friend to podcasts. No form of art or entertainment is for everyone, and if we expect our friends to love all of the things we love, we are only setting ourselves up for disappointment.

My experience as a 20-year resident of Chicago is that Chicagoans love learning about Chicago. And that definitely includes me, so I recently did a series of Chicago history episodes on my history podcast. Kate, if that's true of you as well, I'll shamelessly (maybe a little shamefully) suggest my podcast: https://www.unsunghistorypodcast.com/category/chicago-history/. As a bonus, every episode has a full, edited transcript, so if you keep hating listening to podcasts you can always just read them instead. πŸ˜‚

omg, Kateeee!!! A few recommendations for you: Vox Quick Hits if The Ezra Klein show feels too long and here is a Life Kit playlist of all the episodes they've done on parenting related topics because they are short and informational: https://tunein.com/podcasts/Kids--Family-Podcasts/Life-Kit-Parenting-p1222076/?topicId=200319102
