The fundraiser benefiting Paws Chicago, the Midwest’s largest no-kill shelter, kicks off with “Bill and Doug’s Excellent Adventure, a collaboration between Piece and iconic Chicago chef Hot Doug. Piece owner Bill Jacobs and Hot Doug jump in the car to unveil their masterful collab: a white pizza topped with Hot Doug’s Hungarian sausage, thinly sliced Yukon potatoes, roasted garlic, mozzarella, and finished with horseradish cream sauce, grated aged Pecorino Romano, and scallions. For every “Bill and Doug’s” pizza sold, Paws will receive $70, thanks to Piece and generous matching donors. Yeah, the pizza was outstanding, but I really enjoyed talking with Bill and Doug.

As you look at the current book you're writing, do you see strong themes showing up? Can you see them in previous books you've written or read? In this fun conversation with Angela Terry, we talked about how one particular theme started showing up in her writing and what she did to hone it even more. We also talked about the fact that part of what makes a good story is that it has relatable characters. Characters that grow and change because of what they've been through or that they can sit in the gray area, so I enjoyed how Angela talked about the way she blending her theme and characters and can't wait to hear what comes up for you after you listen. Angela Terry is the award-winning and Amazon best-selling author of Charming Falls Apart, The Trials of Adeline Turner, and The Palace at Dusk.

Suzanne Le Mignot serves as CBS2 Chicago's weekend news morning anchor and weekday reporter. Le Mignot joined the station in 1995 as a freelance reporter and became a full-time reporter in 1999. She has covered a wide variety of stories, with a particular concentration on community related events, including serving as a news correspondent for CBS2′s Southside neighborhood newsroom from 1999-2000. Prior to joining CBS2, Le Mignot was a news anchor and reporter for WBBM-AM Newsradio 780 (1994-99). She was a news anchor and reporter at WGN-AM (1996) and at WTMJ-AM in Milwaukee (1995-96), before returning to WBBM-AM in 1996. In 2007, LeMignot was honored by The Associated Press in the hard news feature category for her investigative report entitled "Tracking Your Security." Her investigation uncovered that bomb-sniffing dogs at Chicago's Metra train stations could not detect the passing scent of explosives. As a result of that story, Illinois passed a law that requires dog handlers to undergo 180 hours of rigorous training and to pass a new state exam. The report also earned LeMignot a Peter Lisagor Award in the in-depth reporting or series category and a Herman Kogan Award from the Chicago Bar Association. Le Mignot has won several other industry awards: a local and national Emmy for her breaking news reports on the Blue Line derailment (2008); a local and national Emmy Award for her breaking news reports about the death of Pope John Paul II (2005); the Illinois Broadcasters Association Silver Dome Award (1997); two Peter Lisagor Awards (1994 and 1996) and the National Association of Black Journalists Leadership Award, while a student (1993). She is a member of the National Association of Black Journalists and a Board Member of the National Association of Black Journalists Chicago Chapter. Le Mignot has served as a mentor and volunteer at Bunche Elementary School in Chicago's Englewood community. She regularly held workshops and planned field trips centered on building self-esteem for young girls. She has served on the Board of Directors of the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago & Northwest Indiana. Additionally, she is on the Board of Directors of PAWS Chicago, the largest no-kill animal shelter in the Midwest. Le Mignot helped set up the first humane education program with PAWS in 2003. PAWS visits Chicago area schools, using the program to teach elementary school children about the importance of nurturing animals. The program is also used by the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago. Le Mignot has served on the Board of Directors of the Better Boys Foundation. The organization provides educational assistance to boys and girls in the North Lawndale community on Chicago's west side. Le Mignot is the recipient of the National Civil Rights Library 2016 Lifetime Achievement Award for her work in journalism. In 2017, she was inducted into the National Civil Rights Hall of Fame. In 2017, Le Mignot also received the "We Dream in Color" Michelle Obama Humanitarian Award for her reports that led to positive change in the lives of those who have endured challenging times. In 2019, Le Mignot won first place in the Chicago Journalists Association Sarah Brown Boyden Award Competition in the Public Service category for her "Misidentified Man" series of reports. The day before Le Mignot received the award, Senate Bill SB2309 was introduced on November 14, 2019. The bill would make fingerprinting and DNA testing mandatory in John and Jane Doe cases in Illinois. In 2021 she received The Shantieya Smith "We Fight for Her Award" by MOVE and YOVE (Mothers Opposed to Violence Everywhere and Youth Opposed to Violence Everywhere) for her reports bringing attention to missing and murdered black girls and women in Chicago. She was also chosen by Better Magazine in 2021 as one of the top 10 Black Women of Impact in Chicago and chosen by the America Nation Multicultural World Foundation as the 2021 Multicultural Woman of the Year. She has served as a Trustee of Ray Graham Association for People with Disabilities, an organization that supports children and adults with developmental disabilities in DuPage and Cook counties. Le Mignot is also on the Board of Trustees of Lifeline Humanitarian Organization. The group provides medical supplies and aid for war orphans throughout former Yugoslavia. She's on the Advisory Council for Smile Train, an organization that provides life-saving cleft-palate surgery for children in need around the world.

Bill Jacobs (Owner, Piece Pizzeria & Brewery) returns to the show to talk about Piece's Slice To Meet You pizza collaboration benefit for PAWS Chicago. Every time you order one of their celebrity chef featured pizzas, $50 gets donated to PAWS Chicago.    With featured collaborations with Stephanie Izard and Rick Bayless waiting in the wings, Bill and I dug into the collaboration done with the dream team of Hot Doug Sohn and Barry Sorkin (Smoque). Their creation, Hot Smoque'n Creole Pizza, was one of the most beautifully balanced pizzas I've ever had. Absolutely magical. I mean, just look at what it's all about: White pizza with smoked mozzarella cheese, Hot Doug's Andouille sausage, Smoque's smoked chicken thigh, creole seasoning, creole sauce and scallions.   The Hot Doug/Smoque collab is only at Piece for a couple more weeks; don't sleep on it!   Bill and I also talked about Piece's long history, award winning beers and chill vibes. We also talked about Chicago's Rat Hole, because that's what we all are doing right now. Car Con Carne is presented by Alex Ross Art.

Today on the podcast, I am excited to welcome Carrie from PAWS Chicago. PAWS Chicago was founded in 1997 with the goal of ending the unnecessary killing each year of tens of thousands of helpless cats and dogs. Twenty-five years later, their solutions-based approach has led to a 91% drop in euthanasia citywide since its founding. They've performed more than 280,000 free and low-cost spay/neuter surgeries, found loving homes for more than 70,000 pets, and consistently saved 98% of the pets who come through their doors. And while these achievements are remarkable, it's just the beginning.  PAWS Chicago is one of the two nonprofit organizations that the FYLP x WRDSMTH merchandise collaboration is benefiting from.
