Kevin O’Neill joins our first hour chatting on a variety of topics from the less utilized uses for AI and the attempts to regulate the industry to the ways American policies may change with the upcoming elections. On our second hour Eric May hops in talking on the overall trends of the modern American economy and government, how monopolies and their ties to the government could use some looking-into and a variety of topics within Chicago politics.
Guests & Co-Hosts
KEVIN O’NEILL
Kevin O’Neill is our Wednesday and Friday morning sports guy. His segment emphasizes what happens off the field as much as what happens on the field. All businesses have their intrigue, but the inner workings of sports organizations find their way into the public domain frequently. Unless a rant from the Chief spills into Kevin’s segment (not an unusual occurrence), he will highlight some of those sports related business issues; but be advised that those highlights usually come with an opinion.
