6. Resisting Tyrants Since Pharoah
Manage episode 340981319 series 3383304
JIALIO welcomes the first guest in its history, attorney, critic, author, patron of the arts, and Aaron’s maternal uncle, Joel Henning. Joel appears courtesy of the process established in the previous episode by which Aaron asks someone who has known him for a long time (in this case his brother Jason) who he should invite onto the podcast. The wide-ranging conversation covers arts clubs, societies, and councils; moving to Florida in a post-Trump, post-COVID world; and the Chicago neighborhood of Logan Square, where Ira lives, Aaron once lived, and Joel and Aaron’s mother grew up. Joel’s recollections include legendary Chicago columnist Irv Kupcinet and the special guest room he kept for Sammy Davis, Jr., the intricacies of liar’s poker, a surprise appearance by actor Eli Wallach, and a T-shirt with an important message.
