Synopsis:
Ira takes a trip through time back to the year 1975 and compares the craziness of 40 years ago to the current madness of this century. Is the world crazier than back then or does it just seem that way? In the Something to Think About feature, Ira mounts an informed argument about state sanctioned random murder of Black people by police and the scandal that is currently ruining careers in Chicago city government. A clear and solid case of Money talks and bullshit walks.
