Mayor Brandon Johnson will answer Chicagoans’ questions live on Wednesday in ‘Ask the Mayor’

Mayor Brandon Johnson is returning to WBEZ 91.5 on Wednesday to answer listener questions live on the morning talk show “In the Loop” with host Sasha-Ann Simons.

Last month, Johnson spoke with WBEZ listeners about community resources for kids, job opportunities for Black Chicagoans, teen curfew concerns and locking horns with City Council over the city budget.

"It's not enough to have a strong City Council," he said. "You have to have a responsible one, and so that work doesn't stop because we disagree on 1.67% of the overall budget."

"In the Loop" listeners can call 866-915-WBEZ (866-915-9239) between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. to bring their questions about Chicago and how it's being run directly to the mayor.

WBEZ’s “In the Loop” connects you with the people behind the stories: experts, neighbors and newsmakers who shape the city we share. For more on “In the Loop” and to listen to their segments, visit their website. You can also listen to the show on Spotify or the WBEZ app.
