We're walking through Lemont from Nick's Tavern to Matt's Barbecue to get a history lesson, meet some fun locals, and learn the long & short histories of both locations. Mike Pankow from Windy City Slam pops by to talk about the South Side pro-wrestling scene and a must-see show at Thornton Distilling this weekend. Plus, we have a grizzly bear running straight at one of us! (Yep, that's real and we have the audio to prove it.) Enjoy the South Side with us in "30 Minutes Of Good!"
