Radio Chicagoland interviews now uploaded in MP3 format for iPods

I've begun formatting the radio shows and segment interviews from the two hour show in MP3 audio format rather than the old .WMA (Windows Media Format) ... I'll also start upload selected segments to iTunes for download and linking.

The web site is www.RadioChicagoland.com.

The most recent segments and full shows include:

Jan. 23, 2008: Chicago Tribune Columnist John Kass discussing the late Interim Mayor Eugene Sawyer, who was unfairly savaged during his brief two years as mayor. Also Bob Creamer, political activist on his new book "Listen to Your Mother, Standup Straight: How Progressives Can Win." And, Ald. Ed Smith on his campaign for Cook County Recorder of Deeds. And Joe Cesarone, Illinois Campaign manager for Republican Presidential Candidate Ron Paul.

I sat in for radio host and former Illinois Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka on Tuesday Jan. 22, and interviewed Steve Brown, the legislative aide to Illinois House Speaker Michael J. Madigan, discussing the CTA tax, the battle with Gov. Rod Blagojevich in the legislature and more.

Check the shows out.
