Kamala Harris is expected to announce her running mate Tuesday. One name on the short list (though maybe not the short-short list) is Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker. While host Jacoby Cochran and executive producer Simone Alicea think his selection as vice presidential candidate is unlikely, they discuss how Pritzker made a name on the national stage. Plus, they talk about how the end of a local scholarship program mirrors an episode of “The Office,” and they ask if Chicago is over the summer festival hump.
