Three years ago today, Gov. JB Pritzker’s stay-at-home order went into effect as COVID-19 swept the world. Host Jacoby Cochran, lead producer Carrie Shepherd, and producer Simone Alicea talk about what’s changed since then, including the state of the city’s businesses. Plus, with early voting now open, the team looks at some aldermanic runoffs to watch.

Mayoral candidates Brandon Johnson and Paul Vallas take the debate stage tonight at 7p.m. on WGN. There’s also a forum Thursday in Austin. 

Some good news: Catch Jacoby at Gman Tavern tonight for “Write Club” at 7 p.m.
