Alderman Matt O’Shea on Chicago Politics, O’Hare, & the South Side Irish Parade | The Pat McGann Show Ep. 29

The Pat McGann Show

About

This week on The Pat McGann Show, Pat and co-host Dwayne Kennedy sit down with Chicago Alderman Matt O’Shea for a conversation about city politics, airport construction, and why you should not call your alderman about airplanes flying overhead.

Plus: the South Side Irish Parade, the economics of dyeing the river green, the Star Wars museum Chicago didn’t get, and an unexpected detour into “Friends of the Park” drama that feels… personal. 

🎧 New episodes every week — filmed in Chicago.
