PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT WOMEN HAVING VOCAL FRY HAVE NO PLACE IN PODCASTING CONVERSATIONS

[Throughline @throughlineNPR]

When Black queer folks in Chicago were not welcomed at some gay clubs, The Warehouse warmly embraced them. The club became a space for Black queer joy and the home of house music.

This week, how the humble genre of house took over the world. https://t.co/Isf9IjZS7y

@Meha When do we move?

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

All big cities have a violence problem. Chicago's is different. https://t.co/LYiEtWoP7g

@danielptucker @Meha brb, developing a niche beat that's petty meets news

Stunning and devastating opening from Newsnight tonight.
Harsh, yes. Media students (and current broadcast journalists!) take note: your edit is nothing without the right choice of music. And oh boy this is quite the choice.

@Meha OR IT’S GONNA GO DOWN IN FLAMMMMMEEESSS 🤣🤣🤣

Yesterday I asked my husband if it's too soon to start daydreaming about moving back to Phoenix. The answer is no. https://t.co/sXvz11T0z4

[NWS Chicago @NWSChicago]

It's snowing at #Chicago-O'Hare as of 9:21 AM (on 10/17), so this will go down as officially the first snow of the 2022-2023 snow season for Chicago! #ilwx

(screams internally)

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@Meha Oh no. I also told you about the "Bake Off" theme for this week. WHAT ELSE IS GOING TO GO OFF THE RAILS????

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@avcsays @the_transit_guy @davejorgenson This is just me letting my hair down while talking about how Danes don’t have timetables because their trains run so regularly

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@Meha To be fair, this sounds like most of what I Slack you about, minus the Bitcoin. I would never do that to you.

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@avcsays @sonal_soni_ @marklebien Ignoring this reality! See you tomorrow, right? 🙃

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@AgNews_Otto @Alex_Degman Tone deaf drunk people I can handle! The shame of doing a DUET of “Living La Vida Loca” with my brother when I was 12 and he was 10 is what I can’t overcome.

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@adorakn @WBEZ So glad you're here! And thankful for all of the stories you've told.

[Katie O'Connell @katieoc]

@taylorseely95 @CityofPhoenixAZ @jboehm_NEWS @JenAFifield I miss you and Phoenix too! I'll have to remedy that ... as soon as it's not 115 degrees 🤣
