## Resource

ALERT ALERT ALERT! NO GODS NO MAYORS LIVE IN LONDON! APRIL 25 and 26! Three shows! https://live.nogodsnomayors.com/ Wer'e joined this week by Charles from Trouble in River City! Not quite a company town, not just a tax haven. A sort of Spiritual Delaware. The Ireland of the mind. The Grand Cayman of the soul. Mayor Mattie takes us now, to Cook County's most Monegasque locale: Rosemont, Illinois, and the one family with a vice grip on its politics. Join us over on the Patreon to hear the whole thing!
