Episode 404 - "Beyond Chicago From The Air" with Geoffrey Baer and Eddie Griffin

In November of 2020, Chicago’s WTTW debuted a new special called Chicago From The Air, narrated by Geoffrey Baer and produced by Eddie Griffin. Utilizing drones and the skills of local pilots, Chicago From The Air gave viewers a unique look at places many of us know but have never seen from above.

Geoffrey Baer and Eddie Griffin are back with a new production called Beyond Chicago From The Air, which debuts on Wednesday, December 1st, at 7:30pm, and I was fortunate enough to discuss it with them.
