In honor of our 1,000th episode in March, we released a list of 1,000 things we love about Chicago. It includes not just things we at City Cast appreciate, but also things listeners, guests, and Chicagoans love most about the city. With Chicago once again squarely in the national spotlight, it felt like the perfect time to revisit this love letter to our city.
