Spouting Off with Karen Kataline

Guest, Matt Rosenberg, author of, Notes of a Pissed-Off Native Son

My non-fiction book was released in September 2021 by Bombardier Books/Post Hill Press. "What Next, Chicago? Notes of a Pissed-Off Native Son" is based on extensive field interviews in Chicago in 2020, plus additional research, and draws on material from the thirty years I lived there. The book's focus areas are: race and responsibility, crime, education, corruption and governance, and neighborhood revitalization. My professional background: three decades-plus in journalism, communications, and public affairs. Previously I've worked as a top-tier editor, writer, researcher, reporter, policy advocate, and media liaison in the public and private sectors, and for NGOs. Hardcore day hiker bagging peaks across the Western U.S. - a 5,000-foot elevation gain makes my day.

Show Host

...because, you're better off, when you're Spouting Off!

Karen is well-informed and opinionated, but she also believes that protecting others’ rights to free speech protects our own.

Topics range from the timely to the timeless, but always includes a healthy dose of debate and discussion.

Karen has a healthy sense of humor and a nose for news. She stays on top of the topics people are talking about and often brings you stories you may not have heard. Whatever the subject, Karen usually has an opinion and she welcomes yours too!

If you can’t stand a little rabble-rousing or even some passionate disagreement, you may want to listen with caution. But if you just love mixing it up about the hottest issues of the day, tune in. You might have your mind changed or even change someone else’s!
