The series covers The Big Dig in Chicago and related stories from around it. Super interesting to hear how residents fought back against plans to destroy their community with freeways and some of the alternative plans which were put forward. Worth a listen if you're interested in infrastructure, but it has historical and political elements too.

Originally from Dublin but lived away a long time. Back visting for a few weeks and was looking for recommendations of dog friendly places around the city. Mainly looking for bars, restaurants, cafes and cultural/art places.
I know and have been to Two Boys, Gravediggers and a few others but would love to hear of other spots where I can sit in with the dog and avoid the absolutely torrential rain we've been having. City Centre preferred but open to anything.
GRMA!
Awful news. Truly one of Ireland's most legendary artists and an absolutely incredible performer.
