This week, neighbors gathered in Douglass Park to protest Riot Fest ahead of today’s Park District meeting considering permit approvals for the September music festival. We asked you what you thought about Riot Fest in our newsletter Hey Chicago. Lead Producer Simone Alicea and Host Jacoby Cochran catch you up on the conflict and read through some of your responses. Plus, we’re revisiting Chicago’s 75-year parking meter deal and discussing why Chicago and Illinois were ranked high for naked bike riding and romance.

For a clothed bike ride, check out the 4th Annual Juneteenth Black JoyRide happening this Monday.
