As Vocalo.org continues to reimagine what Chicago’s South-side and NW Indiana want from their speakerbox, they’ve added bigger names and fresher faces. Hit It Or Quit It is a new podcast hosted by local feminist and Chicago Reader columnist Jessica Hopper, along with JR Nelson. The podcast is produced by Michael Catano, and you can follow them on twitter @hititpodcast, via email at hititpodcast((@))gmail.com, or at vocalo.org/hitit . So far, there are three downloadable pods, each with their own special guests. I was called to be the “queer on the street” or “gay in the club” or “light in the loafer” and we chatted about Chicago’s best queer dance parties, banging records for this summer and what I like about community. HIOQI #3 also features call-ins from Cody Critcheloe of SSION and Rock critic Nick Sylvester, but I come in at about the 20 minute mark. Cool! Can’t wait for more pods from Hopper and Nelson, they were a nice pair of hosts really attuned to Chicago’s landscape. No wonder they called me! Click here to go to the pod.
