Old-school South Side record shop meets modern-day demands
Like independent bookstores, record stores — like Tearched Scott's House of Music, at 1637 E. 87th St. — offer a cultural experience that big-box stores can’t.

It has been a lot of years since I watched one, but I will always think of myself as a soap fan. This whole season was a beautiful love letter to the genre that raised me.

I rode the Green Line with self-described transit nerd state Rep. Kam Buckner to talk public transit as a public good. But the CTA, in particular, suffers from flimsy leadership, ghost buses and crime.
