Segment 1: Ilyce Glink, owner of Think Glink Media and Best Money Moves, joins John Williams to talk about how much the market has gone up the last few months, why Warren Buffett is continuing his stock-selling spree, first-time homebuyers shrinking to a historic low, and how much homeowners insurance differs between red and blue states.

Segment 2: Jim Dallke, Director of Communications, TechNexus Venture Collaborative, tells John about TechNexus’ co-working space at the Civic Opera Building being the city’s largest co-working space after a multi-floor expansion, and a local med-tech startup being named one of Time’s best inventions of 2024.

Segment 3: Michael Edwards, President and CEO, Chicago Loop Alliance, joins John Williams to talk about the Chicago Loop Alliance’s quarterly report that tracks pedestrian activity, hotel occupancy, office workers on-site, arts and culture, multimodal transportation, investment and more. Michael says the Loop growth has been significant and we are in a ‘downtown renaissance.’
