On this election day, take a break from politics with theater, film, and music – including a conversation about the life, music, and cultural influence of the late Chuck Berry. Sound Ideas culture commentator and Illinois State University English professor Bill McBride joins to remember the man often credited with creating rock ‘n’ roll. Robots are taking over the Normal Theater. Laura Kennedy will explain. Also, listen for a preview of a new film festival. Jon Norton talks with guitarist of the not-forgotten band Mojo Stew about a Saturday reunion-benefit concert.
