Booth 46: Episode 3 with Mayor Brandon Johnson
Update: 2025-09-05
Description
In collaboration with Petterino’s in downtown Chicago, WGN Radio’s Steve Dale is joined by the Mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson, for a conversation in their famous Booth 46.
It’s not often that Mayor Johnson gets to do fun interviews, but this is definitely one of them. Mayor Johnson talks about what it’s like being the mayor and representing all 77 of Chicago’s neighborhoods, what sets Chicago apart from everywhere else and why he loves it, how its downtown rivals New York’s and other major cities, how he’s refueled by the people, and much more. Mayor Johnson also has great recommendations for families and people coming to visit. It’s a good opportunity to get to know Chicago’s mayor better so take a listen below:
