The 21st—Thursday, January 9, 2020

It’s 2020, which, in addition to legal cannabis, also means we’re in the midst of a massive gambling expansion in Illinois. We spoke with psychiatric professionals about how to spot problem behavior, whether at a stadium or a corner store.

Plus, the debate over same-sex marriage and whether to include LGBT clergy has been dividing the United Methodist Church for years. Now a proposal from church leadership could formally split the church over the issue.  And, the wildfires in Australia are so vast, they’d cover about a third of Illinois. What can we learn from their experience, and how you can help.
