The Mincing Rascals 8.28.24: DNC recap, Gus Walz controversy, debate rules

John Williams

The Mincing Rascals this week are John Williams of WGN Radio, Eric Zorn, Publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, longtime Chicago journalist Cate Plys, and political pundit Marj Halperin! This week, the Rascals start the podcast talking about Cate’s magnificent tie! And also, the DNC. How do the Rascals feel the city of Chicago handled the convention? What were the highlights? The missteps? The Rascals break it all down. During the convention, Tim Walz’s son Gus became emotional seeing his father on stage and the hosts of a local right-wing radio station are coming under fire for mocking him. Now, one of the hosts has resigned her position as the coach of the boys and girls volleyball teams at a local high school. Do the Rascals believe the hosts should be fired from their radio jobs? The first Harris-Trump debate is set to take place on Sept. 10th, but there is still uncertainty about the debate rules concerning microphones, notes, and a live audience. What rules do the Rascals believe should carry over from the first debate? And finally, the White Sox are still really bad.
