Welcome to the Chicago Beer Pass: Your ticket to all the great beer events happening in and around Chicago.On this episode of Chicago Beer Pass, Brad Chmielewski and Nik White are opening cans from Hopewell Brewing. This session IPA from Hopewell is everything you need to beat the heat, speaking of heat the camera overheated during this episode so the video cuts out part way through the episode. As the guys crash a few cans, they talk about Midsommarfest, Macushla, and a 10 dollar pint of Bell’s Oberon. Inflation might be hitting us a bit hard in places but $10 for a 5% Wheat Ale seemed a bit high. Having issues listening to the audio? Try the MP3 (56.8MB) or subscribe to the podcast on iTunes!

Diane Zinna became an adult orphan at 23 after losing her father at 15 and her mother the day she graduated from a master’s program in creative writing. Each time she sat down to write, themes of grief and loss filled the page. Diane's new novel, The All-Night Sun, tells the story of a grieving teacher whose losses follow her to a Midsommar’s Eve celebration, where things take a dark turn. Today, we’re talking about how we decide when to share our grief stories with others, and how common it is for our grief stories to be disjointed, unpredictable, and non-linear.   Find Diane’s book, The All-Night Sun here: https://dianezinna.com/   Order my new book, Your Grief, Your Way here: https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/your-grief-your-way   Find 90-minute Zoom workshops here: https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/events   Get grief support for just $3/month!

We hope you have enjoyed our week of Gabbin’ with Stew episodes, and today we bring you a quick roundup of what to expect for Andersonville at Home, our first ever virtual Midsommarfest and fundraiser tonight! RSVP to Andersonville at Home on Facebook.

Urlaub gefällig? Interessiert an der nordischen Folklore und deren Ritualen? Falls ja, könnt ihr euch mit einer Gruppe Studenten auf die Reise in eine schwedische Kommune machen und das Midsommarfest feiern. Sicherer Aufenthalt und lebendige Rückreise nicht gewährleistet! Denn Regisseur Ari Aster, der schon in Hereditary mit psychologischen Horror begeistern konnte, versetzt seinen neuen Film Midsommar in ein eher genreuntypisches Setting. Doch schafft Aster es auch mit diesem Film Horror-Konventionen auf den Kopf zu stellen und können auch tanzende Blumenmädchen und die sonnendurchfluteten Wiesen und Wälder Skandinaviens unheilvoll inszeniert werden? Diesen und noch vielen mehr Fragen stellen sich Henrik und Daniel. Fröhliches Midsommarfest!

We hope you have enjoyed our week of Andersonville Midsommarfest episodes, and today, Laura and Joelle bring you the quick FAQs roundup for the festival kicking off TONIGHT at 5PM and Saturday and Sunday from 12-10PM. Midsommarfest is Andersonville’s annual summer street festival, now in its 54th year. Each year, nearly 75,000 people flock to Clark Street from Foster to Catalpa for three days of live music, dancing, kids’ entertainment, delicious food and much more! Tonight’s festival footprint begins up at Summerdale and stretches to Catalpa, with the full fest footprint beginning at Foster tomorrow.

In this special Midsommarfest episode, Laura and Joelle are joined by Juan and Susy Lucero of the incredible modern mariachi band, Cielito Lindo. Cielito Lindo is comprised of the Lucero family of nine, with children ages ranging from 6 to 16. They have performed all over the city of Chicago and the Midwest. You can catch them at Summerdale Stage at Andersonville Midsommarfest on Sunday, June 9 at 2PM! They are the third in a series of 4 episodes released this week leading up to the fest kickoff this Friday.

This week, Laura and Joelle are joined by Scott Martin owner of SVEA Restaurant at 5236 N. Clark and Simon’s Tavern at 5210 N. Clark. Since the Depression, Simon's has anchored Clark Street just north of Foster and Scott has been an anchor of this community. His love for this neighborhood is effusive. You can see Scott walking his dog, greeting patrons at the restaurant and bar, waving hello off the rooftop connected to his apartment above Tilly’s or dressed up as a Viking multiple times a year, most famously during Midsommarfest.     To view episode show notes, please click here.
