Mike Stephen visits with Chicago Tribune writer Nick Kindelsperger at La Lagartija Taqueria about his monthlong taco-eating journey and why and how Chicago is a taco town, catches up with writer and cultural critic Anne Elizabeth Moore about her new book Threadbare: Clothes, Sex & Trafficking and how she won a house Detroit via the Write A House program, and checks in with Plastic Crimewave (aka Steve Krakow) about Sun Ra saxophonist John Gilmore for this week's edition of The Secret History of Chicago Music. Meanwhile, we update the House Bill 5902 (aka Speech Rights of Student Journalists Act) story from OTL #499, and we actually side with Mayor Rahm Emanuel... when WTTW's Paris Schutz broke the "off-the-record" journalism rule! This week's local music is provided by Early Autumn Station.
