Mayor Brandon Johnson will be re-launching a guaranteed income pilot that provides $500 monthly payments to low-income residents as the city works to spend federal COVID-19 relief funding to avoid having to return it to the feds. wbez.org/stories/chicag… w/ @MariahWoelfel
As the @UChicago encampment ramps up, @NorthwesternU President Michael Schill announces an agreement with pro-Palestinian student activists there.
I'm proud to support my former colleagues as they work to save essential projects at WBEZ and Vocalo. They work they do is essential and makes our city stronger. actionnetwork.org/forms/099c98ca… #SaveVocalo #SaveWBEZ
I announced in todays episode of @NerdettePodcast that our last episode with WBEZ will be on May 28. We are looking for a new home for the show!
Today the US Supreme Court is hearing the Grants Pass case that considers important issues of housing and homelessness. But the case could also have giant implications for prison, punishment and the death penalty. More here: themarshallproject.org/2024/04/10/sup…
This month, Chicago Public Media laid off 14 staffers — and dramatically cut @WBEZ's podcast unit and @Vocalo. Don't ignore this distress call! Save Our Stations and keep the people who make CPM what it is! Sign and share: actionnetwork.org/forms/savewbez… #SaveWBEZ #SaveVocalo
Chicago Public Media says they want to reach diverse audiences, but cut the people who make these programs. Cut corporate greed and save @WBEZ and @Vocalo instead! #SaveWBEZ #SaveVocalo actionnetwork.org/forms/099c98ca…
Brandon is the greatest, but want to clarify, I am just the one who happened to start the page...this fundraiser is an effort by the entire CPM SAG union. And it is incredible to see the amount people are coming through for our colleagues.

It was an anonymous tip that led Nikko D’Ambrosio to discover his photo had been posted in a private Facebook group called “Are We Dating The Same Guy?” The post’s comment section brimmed with stories of women who said they went out with him trib.al/w7dR381
Logging back on here to say that I was one of the people laid off yesterday. I am so proud of the work we did at @NerdettePodcast and we hope to find it a new home. In the meantime, I'm a soup to nuts producer looking for new opportunities

This news is beyond devastating. What a loss for Chicago. Vocalo and shows like @NerdettePodcast are what made @WBEZ so dynamic and unique. It’s so unfair. My heart goes out to all my old colleagues who are hurting right now.

does any one know where i could find some Unsolicited advice? preferably from people with weird personality disorders who dont know anything
So today I learned that @Vocalo will cease radio broadcast on May 1st. I was there before it had a name. 17 years. @ReclaimedSoul was my gift to the city. #vocalo (which I ran for years) was my love letter. A cheerleader for our rich arts music + culture. I hope you all felt it.
It was an honor telling Black stories through the MAKING podcast. This is a major loss for the city of Chicago. My heart breaks for my hardworking WBEZ and Vocalo colleagues who have lost their jobs. Their impact can’t be discarded. I hope management reconsiders.

The move to terminate nearly 15% of 62 unionized content creators at WBEZ and four people at the Chicago Sun-Times comes amid declining fundraising, listenership and philanthropic support. wbez.org/stories/chicag…

I think people really believe that Vocalo is going to be the same, just not broadcast... But its signature programming was effectively gutted.
Thanks to everyone who has been supporting @Vocalo radio and me, It’s been a wonderful 12 years! CPM recently announced that broadcast on 91.1fm would come to an end in May. Sadly, that means the end of the 5 O’clock Mix, Friday Night DJ Series & my position effective May 28th
Y'all have really come through for us! We have more than 2,500 signatures on our letter to @WBEZ execs demanding they get back to our PUBLIC service mission. With your help, we may be able to get them to listen. So thank you. #SaveVocalo #SaveWBEZ actionnetwork.org/forms/savewbez…
I'm proud to support my former colleagues as they work to save essential projects at WBEZ and Vocalo. They work they do is essential and makes our city stronger. actionnetwork.org/forms/099c98ca… #SaveVocalo #SaveWBEZ
@NateSilver538 My basic model of protests is I just make up what people are actually feeling and then agree with myself about it 👍
This city needs @Vocalo programs like Mornings with Bekoe, the 5 O’Clock Mix and This is What Chicago Sounds Like 💙💙 Sign and share our petition! #SaveWBEZ #SaveVocalo actionnetwork.org/forms/099c98ca…
Your favorite mornings host @OfficialBekoe has all the tracks you need to make this Monday feel like a Friday... Catch Mornings With Bekoe every weekday from 8am-1pm on 91.1 FM 📻 Vocalo.org/player
Over the weekend a lifelong Chicagoan asked me **in tears** why @Vocalo is being shut down. To her, she said, Vocalo IS #Chicago. That's why I'm asking you to sign our letter to management today demanding these cuts be reversed: actionnetwork.org/forms/savewbez… #SaveVocalo #SaveWBEZ
Shout out to @pksmid for starting a GoFundMe to help the full-time WBEZ and Vocalo folks cut by CPM. Please contribute if you can, and spread the word. Now, more than ever, it takes a village: gofund.me/b99d2397
I wrote down some thoughts, memories, and recollections from WBEZ's CDU (podcast dept.). Tagging folks who might be interested. bit.ly/3TNPqgl @pksmid @davemckinney @shannon_h @reblavoie @magisiv @jasonmarck @monicaeng @gretamjohnsen @MariahWoelfel @SkyePillsbury
Closing @Vocalo also effectively ends the legacy of Radio Arte, a community radio station focused on Latino youth. In 2012, Chicago Public Media bought the signal and promised to incorporate programming. 💔
.@WBEZ leadership just announced the elimination of our podcast unit, the end of the Vocalo radio broadcast and the layoffs of 14 people. It's only been two years since we were big enough and financially healthy enough to acquire the Sun-Times.
“Making Obama” introduced me to WBEZ and Vocalo gave me my first opportunity to go live on-air. I am heartbroken by today’s news.
