Chuck Garfien's Spring Training Podcast-pa-looza rolls on with White Sox non-roster invitee Jarred Kelenic, who explains why signing with the South Side felt like the right move at this stage of his career. The Waukesha, Wisconsin, native reflects on growing up playing ball in the Chicago area, handling the spotlight as a former top-10 prospect, and the whirlwind path that took him from being drafted by the New York Mets to a blockbuster trade involving Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz that sent him to the Seattle Mariners. Kelenic opens up about the adversity and growth that have shaped his confidence today, why he believes he's always swung the bat well at Rate Field and Wrigley Field, and how those experiences fuel his belief in what he can bring to the club. He also shares his outlook on what the 2026 White Sox could become and the role he hopes to carve out moving forward.

With one of our hosts down but definitely not out, we take a look at the building attitude of a young White Sox team. A quick start to Spring Training matters more than most think, even if the wins don't count once the season starts. All eyes are on the swing and miss of Munetaka Murakami, but is it something alreay solved by another international star? We're breaking it down in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week we were delighted to welcome Yes drummer Jay Schellen back on the YMP. Just like last time, we had a lovely conversation and Jay shared his thoughts about the forthcoming UK and European Fragile Tour as well as the new Yes album that is now being prepared for release in July (hopefully). It's clear from our interview that Jay is totally committed to the future development of the band and believes that the new album will be warmly received. We look forward to that, of course. What unexpected item does Jay take with him on tour? How does his kit differ from Alan White's Has Jay been more involved in the writing of the forthcoming album than his previous Yes records? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below. Drama and Fragile Live - last time! YES -  FRAGILE UK TOUR 2026 YES Receive Stunning Reviews from USA leg of their FRAGILE tour,  which they bring to the UK in April and May 2026.  “Yes, quite possibly the most important Prog Rock originators and granddaddies of the genre, delivered deep cuts and their groundbreaking classic album, “Fragile,” in its glorious, delightfully indulgent, layered, and ambitious grandiosity tonight.” Sonic Nation, 11/10/25  “Prog-rock stalwarts Yes took the stage...bringing new energy to their classic sound.”  --Danielle Modica, NYS Music, 10/9/25  “Truly prog rock at its finest, if I do say so myself. They've still got the groove, the intensity, and the mythicality that established them as such a unique act over 50 years ago.”  Rock DNA Magazine - 5 stars – 5/10/25 Progressive Rock legends, YES, recently returned from the USA where they performed 31 shows on their Fragile Tour across the country.    They hit the road in the UK once more for a 9-date trek across the country starting on 22nd April at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow and ending with a two-night run at the prestigious Palladium in London on 3rd and 4th May.  The tour will see YES performing their 1971 classic album, ‘Fragile', in its entirety, including such timeless songs as ‘Heart of the Sunrise', ‘South Side of the Sky' and the much loved ‘Roundabout' as well as a selection of songs from right across their illustrious catalogue from their legendary 70`s releases right up to their current album, ‘Mirror To the Sky.' ‘Fragile' was the fourth album by YES cracking the Top 10 in the UK in 1971 achieving Platinum status along the way and was the first to feature keyboardist Rick Wakeman. The single, ‘Roundabout' was a Top 20 hit in the States with the album breaking into the Top 5 on the Billboard chart receiving a Double Platinum certification in the process.   Steve Howe: “After The Yes Album, everything seemed to align. With Eddie Offord co-producing, and each of us contributing solo pieces, Fragile became a bold statement of creativity. It was Bill Bruford's idea to include individual showcases—it was a bit oddball, but it captured the spirit of the time.” Each show will feature a gallery of work by esteemed artist, Roger Dean, whose paintings have graced the covers of many of YES albums over the years. ‘Fragile' was the first YES album to feature Dean`s iconic artwork. The current line-up of YES features Steve Howe, whose association with Yes began in 1970, along with Geoff Downes, a member of the 1980 ‘Drama' era line-up.  Jon Davison has been lead vocalist in Yes since 2012 while bassist, Billy Sherwood, who was hand-picked by original bassist Chris Squire, has been involved with YES since 1990`s. Jay Schellen, who worked closely with Alan White on drums, completes the line-up. Steve Howe:  “We're all looking forward to the UK dates and will be presenting an intriguing first set then all of ‘Fragile', in its entirety then a slight diversion before our usual final encore. See you all then”  The ‘Fragile' UK Tour Dates 2026 Wed 22nd April          Glasgow                    Royal Concert Hall   glasgowlife.org.uk Fri 24th April              Sheffield                    City Hall                     sheffieldcityhall.co.uk Sat 25th April             Liverpool                    Philharmonic Hall     liverpoolphil.co.uk Mon 27th April          Birmingham               Symphony Hall         bmusic.co.uk Tue 28th April            Bournemouth          Pavilion bournemouthpavillion.co.uk Thur 30th April           Bristol                        Beacon                      bristolbeacon.org Fri 1st May                 Manchester               Bridgewater Hall       bridgewater-hall.co.uk Sun 3rd May              London                      Palladium                  lwtheatres.co.uk Mon 4th May              London                      Palladium                  lwtheatres.co.uk Tickets (subject to booking fees) go on general sale on Friday 19th September at 10am from BookingsDirect.com About YES Steve Howe: guitars, backing vocals (1970 –1981, 1990–1992, 1995–present)

Chuck Garfien's Spring Training Podcast-pa-looza rolls on with former White Sox infielder Matt Davidson, who reflects on his time on the South Side and the unforgettable moment in 2018 when he launched three home runs on Opening Day against the Royals in Kansas City. Now playing in the KBO after a 2023 season in Japan's NPB, Davidson breaks down the similarities and differences between baseball overseas and in MLB, including his experience facing Munetaka Murakami. He also discusses what he expects from Murakami in 2026 with the White Sox, what continues to drive him to play, and how much longer he sees himself staying in the game.

In this powerful episode, Justin Burns breaks down why we're entering a once-in-a-generation era of hyper–technology acceleration — and how everyday entrepreneurs can leverage AI to build profitable apps without technical experience. From growing up on the South Side of Chicago to building and selling tech companies, Justin shares the mindset shifts, failures, and breakthroughs that shaped his journey. He explains how to spot high-value opportunities, validate ideas using AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude, and turn simple concepts into scalable software businesses. If you've ever wondered how to future-proof your income, compete in tech, or position yourself for the next billion-dollar wave, this episode is your blueprint.

Chuck Garfien's Spring Training Podcast-pa-looza rolls on with new White Sox outfielder Austin Hays, who explains why he chose the South Side and what he sees brewing inside the 2026 clubhouse. Hays reflects on going from 110 losses to 101 wins in a two-year span in Baltimore and draws parallels to a Sox team looking to rebound from a 102-loss season, while sharing what he can bring to help spark that turnaround. He also compares this group to last year's Reds club that battled through adversity to reach the postseason. Hays opens up about overcoming a kidney infection in 2024 and how a conversation with Kyle Schwarber helped him address the issues he was dealing with, plus his strong relationship with hitting director Ryan Fuller, who played a key role in his 2023 All-Star campaign. He offers advice to Colson Montgomery on avoiding a sophomore slump and gives his early impressions of the 2026 Sox. And yes, he gives his two cents on Japanese slugger Munetaka Murakami, too.

We often spend days looking for one single thread that helps us unravel a story. It often takes even longer when the story is set on the South Side of Chicago. We look for publications, ads, cookbooks, letters, and anything else that would have documented that time period for even a glimpse into what life would be like. One thing that never fails us is the Negro Motroist Green Book. Published between 1936 and 1966, this guidebook offers a great lense into the life of Black Americans at the time. This week, we use the Green Book to trace the enduring legacy and community of Chicago's South Side.Sources: Purchase a copy of the Green Book https://www.smithsonianstore.com/negro-motorist-green-book-compendium-11198/?srsltid=AfmBOopZa2dgrORNstFqQ44PhsM7AKTb3Ed6UYyr68V6-Znp2fW1rKEx New York Public Library Digital Access to The Green Book https://libguides.nypl.org/greenbook/nypldigitalcollections Send a textSupport the showAlso, catch Dario on the new season of Netflix's "High On the Hog" here!!If you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠media@77flavorschi.com⁠ WATCH US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!

In this episode, I sit down with Michael Leach for a thoughtful conversation about fear, faith, and what it looks like to keep moving forward when clarity is hard to come by. We talk about his journey from growing up on the South Side of Chicago to working in the NFL and serving in the White House, but more importantly about how faith is formed through practice, resilience, and trust in uncertain seasons. We explore purpose and identity, calling versus assignment, burnout and boundaries, and why connection matters more than simply having the right words. This is an honest, grounded conversation about choosing faith over fear and learning how to live with courage and moral clarity in a complicated world.Michael Leach is a distinguished leader whose career spans the NFL, national politics, and the White House. Born on the South Side of Chicago, his journey has shaped him into one of today's most trusted and relatable voices on faith, leadership, and resilience.

Leading up to the National Wellbeing & Resilience Summit, Chad sits down with Prince Jimmar, co-founder and director of Rebels for Peace, to explore the powerful work he's doing with youth on Chicago's South Side. Together, they discuss how understanding the simple nature of how our minds work can unlock wellbeing for anyone — regardless of background, circumstances, or where you grow up. Driven by deep compassion and lived experience, Prince shares his passion for helping young people discover the peace that already lives within them.

What if the help we offer keeps people from healing? That question sits at the heart of our conversation with James Scott of Our Neutral Voices, a South Side entrepreneur turned community builder whose life bridges poverty, perseverance, and purpose. James opens up about growing up with a single mom, running a neighborhood telecom store that doubled as a listening post, and discovering that the most powerful gift isn't a handout but a path forward.We dig into why “toxic giving” stalls progress and how equipping changes everything. James lays out ONV's five pillars—spirituality and health, education and performing arts, financial literacy and economic development, and sports—and shows how this web supports entire households, not just individuals. He describes late‑night moments with a bass or lead guitar, where prayer and music steady his resolve, and explains why obedience to calling beats comfort every time.Collaboration is the engine behind the impact. James shares how ONV convened 28 organizations into a coalition built on simple MOUs, transparent roles, and shared wins. We talk frankly about the toughest barrier of all: internal strife, jealousy, and donor competition that fracture trust from the inside. The counter is humility, consistency, and clear values—God first, do what you say, and let people see the work. James also previews Escaping From The System, a practical curriculum that helps families use safety nets wisely and then exit them with dignity.If you've felt the nudge to start but waited for perfect timing, James's message is for you: begin today. Take one step toward the barrier—learn, ask, visit, budget, practice—and watch momentum build. If this story moved you, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway so more neighbors can find it.https://www.ourneutralvoices.org/
