We kick things off with a special “Deep Dish” segment as Lisa and Kristen catch up on everything happening around the city, including the excitement surrounding the Chicago Crosstown Classic and major new developments coming to the United Center through the highly anticipated 1901 Project. The two also dive into what’s been buzzing around Chicago lately as summer officially starts to take over the city. In our featured segment, “We’re Lovin’ It,” Lisa and Kristen are joined by Michael Strautmanis, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer for the Obama Foundation and member of the Choose Chicago Board of Directors. Michael shares an inside look at the vision and mission behind the highly anticipated Obama Presidential Center opening on Chicago’s South Side during Juneteenth weekend. The conversation explores why the Center is much more than a traditional presidential museum, the importance of Jackson Park and the South Side to the Obamas, what visitors can expect when they step onto the campus for the first time, and how the project reflects Chicago’s resilience, culture, and global impact. Michael also reflects on watching the vision come to life after years of work alongside President Obama and discusses how the Center hopes to inspire future generations of leaders from Chicago and around the world.
