For many people who don’t drink, they can feel left out of the social scene, especially when the only place open after 10 p.m. is a bar. But businesses across Illinois are providing non-alcoholic bars as an alternative option.

We are joined by the owner of the first nonalcoholic bar in Springfield, and the General Manager of the first sober bar in Chicagoland that’s been open since 2013.

Guests:

Elizabeth Wake
Owner, The Wakery, Springfield

Chris Jacob
General Manager, The Other Side, Crystal Lake
