The Chicago Public Schools have a new man in charge. We talk about teachers’ reactions to the change. Plus, Chicago baseball has reached the halfway point of the season, so we take a look back at the first half, as well as what lies ahead for the Cubs and White Sox. Also, this weekend is the 33rd annual Japan Day celebration in Arlington Heights. Finally, we enjoy the music of St. Louis singer/songwriter Beth Bombara.
