Elevator Pitches, Company Presentations & Financial Results from Publicly Listed European Companies
Wacker Chemie AG Q1 2026: Key TakeawaysWACKER Chemie AG First Half 2026 Financial Results PresentationIn this financial results presentation on seat11a, Jörg Hoffmann, Head of Investor Relations at WACKER Chemie AG, presents the company's First Half 2026 Financial Results and discusses financial performance, business segment developments, operational improvements, and the updated outlook for the year.First Half 2026 Financial PerformanceDuring the second quarter of 2026, WACKER increased sales by 7% year-on-year to €1.52 billion. Reported EBITDA rose to €211 million, while EBITDA before special effects reached €175 million, supported by higher volumes, improved pricing, and continued savings from the company's PACE efficiency program. Net income increased significantly to €350 million, primarily reflecting Siltronic-related valuation and transaction effects.Chemicals, Biosolutions and Polysilicon Business DevelopmentsThe Chemicals division delivered strong operational performance across both Silicones and Polymers. Higher volumes, price increases to offset raw material inflation, and operational improvements supported higher profitability, while Biosolutions continued to benefit from BioPharma project business and disciplined cost management. The Polysilicon business continued to benefit from strong semiconductor demand, although solar markets remained challenging due to weak pricing, Chinese overcapacity, and regulatory uncertainty in the United States.PACE Efficiency Program Driving Operational ImprovementsA major focus of the presentation is the company's PACE efficiency program, which continues to improve operational performance across the Group. Management highlighted approximately €45 million of savings achieved during the quarter and reaffirmed the long-term target of generating more than €300 million in cumulative annual savings by 2028.Strong Balance Sheet and Updated FY 2026 OutlookThe presentation also highlights WACKER's strong financial position. Liquidity remained high at €1.57 billion, shareholder equity increased to €4.18 billion, and net financial debt declined to €722 million. Following the stronger first-half performance, management raised its FY 2026 EBITDA guidance to €625–750 million while maintaining expectations for mid-single-digit sales growth during the year.▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

Back in 2019, Mark Chiarello introduced me to Stephen Wacker. Seeing that he's Marvel's new E-i-C, I thought it would be great to take a trip down memory lane. Here's the interview I did with Stephen in 2019.
Big news out of Marvel Comics today: Stephen Wacker has been named the company's new Editor-in-Chief. Given all the executive changes Marvel has gone through in recent years, it's encouraging to see someone with deep comic book experience taking the reins of the publishing line.Wacker's résumé extends well beyond editing comics. In addition to overseeing some of Marvel's biggest publishing initiatives, he also served as Vice President of Marvel Animation and later as Vice President of Marvel New Media, helping guide projects like the Marvel Audio Universe on SiriusXM, including Wolverine and other serialized Marvel audio dramas.To celebrate the news, we're going back to this 2012 Word Balloon conversation with Stephen. It's a fascinating snapshot of Marvel during one of its most creative periods. We talk about the birth of Spider-Man's Brand New Day era, Dan Slott's early run on Amazing Spider-Man, Greg Rucka's Punisher, and Mark Waid's acclaimed Daredevil. Stephen also gets into the weeds on major crossover events like Spider-Island, Shadowland, and DC's The New 52, while pulling back the curtain on Marvel's creator retreats and the collaborative process behind building the Marvel Universe.Ok, yes, this conversation is now more than a decade old, but I think it still provides a valuable window into how Steve Wacker thinks about comics—how he approaches storytelling, editorial decisions, and working with creators. Until I have the chance to sit down with him again, this interview answers a lot of the questions newer readers may have about the philosophy and instincts of the man now leading Marvel Comics. Enjoy this 2012 conversation with Marvel's new Editor-in-Chief, Stephen Wacker.

Lisa Ressler has spent more than 35 years working in science-based businesses, including DuPont and Evonik, and now serves as Chief Commercial Officer at Amyris. In this conversation, she joins Karl and Erum to discuss where Amyris stands today, what the company learned from Chapter 11, and why returning its focus to B2B science was the right move. Lisa explains the company's 1.5 million-liter fermentation facility in Barra Bonita, Brazil, its partnership with Wacker to develop bio-based personal care ingredients, and the simple framework she uses to decide which markets are worth pursuing. She also shares what it takes for a bio-based ingredient to move beyond higher “green” pricing and reach large-scale commercial use, making the case that strong performance is ultimately what convinces customers.Grow Everything brings the bioeconomy to life. Hosts Karl Schmieder and Erum Azeez Khan share stories and interview the leaders and influencers changing the world by growing everything. Biology is the oldest technology. And it can be engineered.

Wenn das Zelt bei 200 km/h wegfliegt, Mäuse den teuren Prototyp-Rucksack fressen oder die Isomatte bei Minusgraden platzt: Gear-Fails passieren auch den Profis! Christine Thürmer und OUTDOOR-Ausrüstungsredakteur Frank Wacker packen ihre lustigsten und gefährlichsten Material-Pannen aus.
Ihr erinnert Euch bestimmt an Gregor Wacker aus Kämpfelbach - der ist vor 18 Monaten mit dem Ruderboot zu zweit einmal über den Atlantik gerudert. Fast 50 Tage hat er mit seiner Ruderpartnerin für diesen Trip gebraucht. Und jetzt hats ihn wieder gepackt, das nächste Abenteuer muss her. Und diesmal noch eine Stufe krasser: Alleine auf dem Stand Up Paddelboard von Portugal in die Karibik. Wie lange diese Reise dauern könnte, welche Vorbereitungen er trifft, und auf welche Notfälle er sich vorbereitet - das erzählt er uns sehr ausführlich in dieser Folge. 29:59 ist der Podcast, der sich wöchentlich mit spannenden Themen aus dem Sendegebiet des Radiosenders "die neue welle" auseinandersetzt. Unterhaltsame und manchmal auch sehr kuriose Geschichten, die im Radio nur kurz oder gar nicht vorkommen. Dies ist Folge: 335.
In dieser Radioreise nimmt Sie Alexander Tauscher mit nach Plauen. Freuen Sie sich auf die Spitzenstadt im Vogtland, die wir aus verschiedenen Perspektiven betrachten. Andrea Sachs läuft mit uns vom Tunnel vorbei am Nonnenturm zum Klostermarkt und weiter zum historischen Altmarkt mit dem Symbol der Stadt, dem Plauener Rathaus. Unterwegs stoßen wir auf die Neideiteln, ein Original dieser Stadt in Form einer Statue. Die historischen Weberhäuser erinnern uns an die Zeit der Gerber und Färber. Kerstin Rüffer vom Verein Unikat e.V. Weberhäuser Plauen erklärt uns, was hier gerade für Kinder geboten wird. An die Bedeutung der Textilindustrie für Plauen erinnert uns in der Fabrik der Fäden beim Rundgang Dr. Angelika Kober. Aus dem Zentrum der Stadt sind die Vater-Sohn-Figuren des Plauener Künstlers Erich Ohser nicht wegzudenken. Mehr über sein Leben erzählt uns Sarah Kühnel als Leiterin der Galerie e.o.plauen. Am Wendedenkmal erzählt Frank Spranger, wie er den 7.10.1989 erlebt hatte, als hier in Plauen die DDR-Staatsmacht zum ersten Mal vor den Demonstranten einknicken musste. Der Protest der Vogtländer gegen das SED-Regime wäre nicht möglich gewesen, wenn sie nicht über den RIAS freie Informationen aus dem Westen bekommen hätten. Zum 80. Geburtstag des einstigen Rundfunks im amerikanischen Sektor Berlins haben wir die Erinnerungsparty im Vereinsheim des Ersten F.C. Wacker in der Plauener Ostvorstadt besucht. Hier sprachen wir mit Organisator Karsten Repert aus Plauen und dem RIAS-Fan Jürgen Stader aus Hof auch über die besondere Beziehung der beiden Städte. In einer separaten Sendung werden wir dieses Thema noch einmal näher beleuchten. Kulinarisch beleuchten wir die traditionelle vogtländische Küche mit Sauerbraten und Bambes im ältesten Gasthaus von Plauen, in der Matsch. Chefkoch Denny Buchta aus Berlin und Restaurantleiterin Nicole Floss erzählen über ein Haus, das direkt am letzten verbliebenen Abschnitt der mittelalterlichen Stadtmauer liegt. Viel Spaß in Plauen!

Der DAX bleibt in Schlagdistanz zum Rekord, schafft den Sprung aber noch nicht. Im Tageshoch erreicht er knapp 25.395 Punkte, am Ende steht ein kleines Minus von 0,03 % auf 25.177,80 Punkte. Der MDAX gewinnt knapp 1 % auf 33.009,45 Punkte, der SDAX bewegt sich weiter auf Rekordniveau. Rückenwind kommt von den Ölpreisen: Brent fällt wieder unter 100 USD, Hoffnungen auf eine Öffnung der Straße von Hormus sorgen für Entspannung. Reise- und Touristikwerte legen zu, Zscaler bricht nach enttäuschendem Ausblick dagegen um knapp 27 % ein. Bei den Einzelwerten meldet Rheinmetall einen weiteren Bundeswehr-Großauftrag über mehrere hundert Mio. Euro. Schaeffler steigt mit Spire ins Raumfahrtgeschäft ein. Nvidia plant massive Investitionen in Taiwan, Wacker verkauft Siltronic-Anteile, Aroundtown verdient deutlich weniger und die Temu-Mutter PDD enttäuscht mit schwächeren Zahlen.

Wacker Chemie AG Q1 2026: Key TakeawaysWACKER Chemie AG Q1 Financial Results: Joerg Hoffmann on Performance, Market Trends and Segment DevelopmentsPresented by Joerg Hoffmann, Head of Investor RelationsIn this latest financial results presentation on seat11a, Joerg Hoffmann of Wacker Chemie AG provides an update on the company's Q1 financial performance, recent business developments, and the current trading environment across its key segments.Q1 Performance in a Mixed Market EnvironmentWACKER Chemie started the year in a still mixed market environment, with demand trends varying across regions and end markets. The first quarter reflects continued normalization in some areas, while other segments remain impacted by cautious customer behavior, lower order visibility, and ongoing pricing pressure. As a result, performance in Q1 is shaped by a combination of volume developments, pricing dynamics, and cost factors across the portfolio.Segment Developments: Differentiated Trends Across the PortfolioAcross the business divisions, developments remain differentiated. The chemical segments, including silicones and polymers, continue to reflect broader industrial demand trends, with volumes stabilizing in parts but still influenced by weaker activity in construction and other cyclical end markets. Pricing remains an important factor, as competitive dynamics and market conditions continue to impact margins.Chemical Segments: Silicones and Polymers Under Cyclical PressureThe polysilicon segment remains a key contributor to overall performance, with developments closely linked to the global solar market. In Q1, pricing trends, customer demand, and supply dynamics in the photovoltaic value chain continue to influence the segment's performance. At the same time, WACKER's diversified business model provides exposure to a wide range of industrial and technology-driven applications.Polysilicon: Exposure to Solar Market DynamicsOverall, the first quarter illustrates a market environment that remains in transition, with early signs of stabilization in some areas, while other parts of the portfolio continue to operate below previous levels. The presentation provides a detailed view on how WACKER is performing at the start of the year and how current market conditions are reflected in its Q1 results.Conclusion: Early Signs of Stabilization in a Transitional Market ▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

His dad taught him persistence. Soccer taught him strategy. Ted B. Wacker combines both skills in the courtroom. That's how he wins what he calls the “civil war” of litigation. In this conversation with host Dan Ambrose, Ted traces a career defined by bold bets: from clerking on the Exxon Valdez oil spill case, to knocking out expert cardiologists in the bellwether case about Merck's Vioxx pain medication, to leading a “monster” wrongful death litigation against Uber. He and his brother and law partner will teach the Uber litigation at TLU Beach.Train and Connect with the Titans☑️ Ted B.

That memory quietly shaped his path to plaintiff's law.Ted played on the state championship soccer team in Washington, earned all-state honors, received pro tryouts from Seattle and San Jose out of high school, and played at San Diego State — ranked No. 2 in the nation his senior year in 1987.Ted paid his own way through law school by bartending and clerking. His first clerk position at San Diego's oldest and biggest plaintiffs' firm came through a surprising connection: the firm's office manager turned out to be a distant uncle.On the trial team case against the drug manufacturer Merck, Ted deposed both of retained cardiologists. Ultimately, the team won a $51 million verdict.After transitioning out of mass torts, Ted scored back-to-back landmark verdicts: a $3.1 million elder abuse verdict with punitive damages (settling closer to $10 million after attorney's fees) and a $14.6 million verdict in a case where State Farm had refused to pay a $25,000 policy.Ted's advice to aspiring trial lawyers: Find a mentor, prioritize getting into trial, and understand that there is no better teacher than actually practicing in the courtroom and getting reps in trial.Produced and Powered by LawPods
"Giving up smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I know because I've done it thousands of times". - Mark Twain While not an episode about nicotene withdrawal, this week we're talking all about research describing the phenomenon of relapse. Or is it renewal? Resurgence? All of the above? Basically any situation in which behavior, once thought removed from a repertoire, comes screaming back into reality. Regardless, teaching skills without planning for generalization to different contexts or being unsure when extinction will come into play is a recipe for disaster. Fortunately, some great researchers have been in the behvaior analysis kitchen trying to cook up the perfect meal of learning. This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

This panel explores the national rise of “opportunity-driven ecosystems,” using Ann Arbor as a case study in how a city can punch far above its weight in sectors like mobility, life sciences, AI, and advanced manufacturing. Hear from founders, corporate innovation leaders, and ecosystem builders on what actually drives them to choose places like Ann Arbor; how partnerships with global R&D giants (KLA, Sartorius, Torc, Wacker) accelerate local innovation; and why mid-sized hubs are becoming magnets for both startups and established companies. If you're building, scaling, or investing, this session will reveal what high-performing ecosystems outside traditional coastal markets get right—and how companies leverage them for faster, more sustainable growth.
April showers are fun, especially after winter snowstorms. Fortunately, we've thawed out a whole mess of episodes for you to enjoy this month including our latest grab bag. But what about the themed episodes? Glad you asked! First, we'll be talking all about relapse which includes discussions of resurgence and renewal (see, aren't you glad you're learning about this?). Then we're joined by Armando Bernal to discuss how PECS could be a key component of building up our support of assent practices. Finally we get real and talk about peer mediation. The kind where children support skill acquisition of their with cues and praise. Not the other one. That'll get its own episode someday. All that and a new LISTENER POLL!

This special Saturday episode of the Very Dental Podcast is all about the upcoming Chicago Midwinter Dental Meeting! Alan Mead sits down with Dr. Phil Schefke, President of the Chicago Dental Society (CDS), to preview the 2026 Midwinter Meeting. Whether you're a 30-year veteran of the meeting or a dental student looking for your first experience, this episode dives into why Chicago remains the premier destination for dental innovation, collegiality, and—believe it or not—puppies. The Guest: Dr. Phil Schefke Dr. Schefke serves as the President of the Chicago Dental Society, the largest component of the ADA. With a board of 15 members and a dedicated staff, Phil has spent nearly a decade on the leadership ladder to help orchestrate a meeting that hosts attendees from all 50 states and over 60 countries. What's New at the Midwinter Meeting? The CDS team has spent three years redesigning the attendee experience based on direct feedback.

The "Hadley" Puppy Corner: A dedicated space in the back of the exhibit hall to play with puppies and melt away the stress of the day (named after the first CDS president). Early Career Dentist Lounge: A comfortable space featuring couches and networking opportunities specifically for the next generation of clinicians. CDS "Swag" Booth: For the first time, attendees can purchase official CDS-branded jackets, sweaters, and coffee cups.

What is the theological meaning of American history? In this episode, American church historian Grant Wacker joins Mark Labberton to explore the theological dimensions of American history, the legacy of Billy Graham, and the evolving face of evangelicalism. Wacker reflects on his Pentecostal upbringing, his formation as a historian, and his conviction that faith and scholarship must speak honestly to one another. Together they trace how religion has both shaped and distorted American life—from the enduring wound of slavery to the reformist spirit woven through its history. Wacker, now in his eighties, offers his perspective on evangelicalism's past, present, and global future. Episode Highlights “Religion has always been at the forefront of rationalizing and making enslavement seem perfectly normal—perfectly natural. It's just the order of things.” “Many of the very finest religious historians are not believers—and they do superb work in understanding where religion lies.” “I don't think there is Christian nationalism out there. What there is is that there is nationalism that draws on Christian categories to legitimate itself.” “I don't think what we're looking at is a religious movement. We're looking at a political movement that uses religious categories.” “We should write about others the way we wish they would write about us.” “You Americans are always asking the Holy Spirit to bring revival. What you ought to be doing is asking the Holy Spirit to open your eyes to the revival that is already flourishing.” Helpful Links and Resources America's Pastor: Billy Graham and the Shaping of a Nation by Grant Wacker — https://www.amazon.com/Americas-Pastor-Graham-Shaping-Nation/dp/0674052188 Heaven Below: Early Pentecostals and American Culture by Grant Wacker — https://www.amazon.com/Heaven-Below-Pentecostals-American-Culture/dp/0674011287 One Soul at a Time: The Story of Billy Graham by Grant Wacker — https://www.amazon.com/One-Soul-Time-Religious-Biography/dp/0802885500/ Mark Noll's The Civil War as a Theological Crisis — https://www.amazon.com/Theological-Crisis-Steven-Janice-Lectures/dp/1469621819 Religion in American Life: A Short History — ****https://www.amazon.com/Religion-American-Life-Short-History/dp/0199832692/ About Grant Wacker Grant Wacker is the Gilbert T. Rowe Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Christian History at Duke Divinity School. A leading scholar of American religious history, he is the author of numerous books including Heaven Below: Early Pentecostals and American Culture and America's Pastor: Billy Graham and the Shaping of a Nation. His research has helped shape modern understanding of American evangelicalism, Pentecostalism, and the intersection of faith and culture. Show Notes Wacker's path to the study of history through mentorship at Harvard Divinity School and a fascination with theology's relationship to historical reality He distinguishes between observing “religion operating in history” and perceiving “the divine hand,” emphasizing the tension between secular and theological approaches to the past. Four major contexts that define the American story: geography, capitalism, immigration, and race Eleven domains where the power of religion—and possibly divine influence—can be seen, from colonization and enslavement to revivalism and reform. “We are a people of plenty—prosperous partly because of the accident of geography.” Reformed and Wesleyan theology as twin engines shaping the nation's moral and social imagination. Humility as “at the heart of Reformed theology: we don't run our lives; something else is running the show.” Wesleyan theology, by contrast, stresses human enablement and responsibility: “If we are able to do it, we are responsible for doing it.” Catholic contributions to the American story, especially the richness of liturgy and the continuity of two thousand years of history Reflections on racial sin as a “permanent wound,” calling religion both complicit in and necessary for confronting slavery's legacy Mark Noll's The Civil War as a Theological Crisis, highlighting how both sides invoked Scripture without self-awareness or self-critique “Religion has always been implicated in making enslavement seem natural—as natural as breathing.” Describes evangelicalism's deep roots in pietism and revivalism, its mainstream dominance by the late nineteenth century, and its later fragmentation. “Evangelicalism became the main line—it was the standard way Protestantism operated.” Outlines the modern trifurcation: fundamentalists, liberals, and a centrist evangelical river that remains influential. “Christian nationalism” is largely a political, not religious, phenomenon: nationalism using Christian categories to legitimize itself. “Religion is rarely an independent variable in determining how people vote.” Richard Bushman (paraphrase): Have we written about [the subjects of academic history] as fairly and honestly as we can, or have we distorted their story in order to make ourselves look good? A call for fairness in historical judgment: “Write about them the way you wish they would write about you.” Prediction: Evangelicalism's future lies “south of the equator”—in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Quotes a Jesuit: “Americans keep asking for revival; they should ask to see the revival that's already happening.” On Christian nationalism: “The question is not whether religion and politics collude—they always have—but whether we can be self-conscious and humble about it.” Identifies power, prosperity, and digital speed as the toxic combination shaping contemporary polarization. “Speed is a narcotic for humans—we want to be connected now.” Reflects on Billy Graham's unifying role and his progressive evolution on race and nuclear disarmament: “He became increasingly moderate, increasingly inclusive.” Notes Graham's three conversions—to Christ, to racial justice, and to peace. “The United States and the Soviet Union are like two little boys in a bathtub filled with gasoline, playing with matches.” On teaching and legacy: “My students are earnest—they want to do well for the world they live in.” “Whatever good has come—it's a gift, not earned.” Humility, humor, and grace as rare marks of faith and scholarship integrated Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.

What's up theology nerds! On this episode, I had the absolute privilege of sitting down with Dr. Grant Wacker, one of America's preeminent historians of religion, and man did he deliver. We dove deep into his fascinating "Bushman test" - the idea that when writing history, you should do so with the understanding that you might someday encounter your subjects in heaven. That framework of being both critical and sympathetic really animated our whole conversation. But here's the kicker - I asked Grant to reflect on the defining moments in American religion as we approach our 250th anniversary, and he came back with 11 (not 10!) pivotal moments that have shaped who we are religiously as a nation. From the expansionist impulse of colonization to the power of renewal movements, from the subjection of Native Americans to the role of reform theology, Grant unpacked these threads with the wisdom that only comes from decades of wrestling with this stuff. We also got into his work on Billy Graham, the birth of Pentecostalism, and how technology has revolutionized religious movements. This is the kind of conversation that helps you understand not just where American religion came from, but where it might be headed. Grab your coffee and settle in - this one's worth savoring. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Dr. Grant Wacker is the Gilbert T. Rowe Professor Emeritus of Christian History at Duke Divinity School and the author of Heaven Below: Early Pentecostals and American Culture, America's Pastor: Billy Graham and the Shaping of a Nation, and One Soul at a Time: The Story of Billy Graham. He is a former president of the American Society of Church History and has served as a senior editor of the quarterly journal Church History: Studies in Christianity and Culture.

Send us a textEver wonder what it takes to compete at the highest level of mountain running? Andy Wacker, one of America's most accomplished trail runners, pulls back the curtain on his remarkable journey in this candid conversation.From crushing a string of road races to preparing for the all-important Sunapee Mountain Classic, Andy shares the surprising freedom he's found competing without sponsorship. "Racing for myself takes a lot of pressure off and it's been really fun," he reveals, explaining how this mindset has contributed to some of his best performances ever—including a fourth-place finish at the US Cross Country Championships and a breakthrough 13:51 5K on the track after a decade-long hiatus.The conversation digs into the fascinating tactical challenges of Sunapee's two-loop format, where competitors must navigate non-technical uphills and tricky descents not once but twice. Andy breaks down his specific preparation, including simulating the punishing sensation of hammering a downhill before immediately climbing again. "You've got to be able to hang with everyone climbing insanely fast. You've got to be able to descend on the most techie thing you've seen and be fine, and then you've got to be ready to do it again better than you did the first time," he explains.For Andy, this race represents more than just competition—it's a redemption opportunity after missing chances due to injuries and illness in recent years. He shares his burning desire to make Team USA and contribute to what could be a historic squad: "I really want to be on a team that wins a gold medal at Worlds, and this could be that team." With competitors capable of sub-14 minute 5Ks and sub-30 minute 10Ks lining up together, the stage is set for what promises to be an epic battle for those coveted national team spots.Whether you're a competitive runner or simply appreciate athletic excellence, this episode offers valuable insights into the mindset and preparation of elite mountain runners.

Today's conversation is with Dr. Grant Wacker -- academic and author, and distinguished professor emeritus at Duke Divinity. His studies have focused on American Christian History, particularly on Pentecostalism and American culture. Today, we are talking to him about the Pentecostal life, and also what we might learn from the significant ministry of Billy Graham about how to do evangelism in the 21st century.

After getting lost on a recent trip to the (lower) Lower Wacker auto pound, host Jacoby Cochran needed some info on why Chicago has such a vast and confusing underground network.

Mike is running an Underground Chicago (Plus Rats!) tour Nov. 23. Want some more City Cast Chicago news? Then make sure to sign up for our Hey Chicago newsletter.
