The Rundown

What would you do if gas was 6 bucks a gallon?  Better make it what will you do, says this analyst at Goldman Sachs:  he thinks $6 gas will be in our face soon. 

Meanwhile, we'll check in on R. Kelly's "mole defense" and a possible boost to the Bulls offense-- what'll they do with their number-one draft pick?-- and the latest in the Barack/Hillary smackdown.

Plus:  OK, so California's courts cleared the way for same-sex marriages in the biggest state in the union.  What's that mean for queer Chicago?  we've got Andrew Davis from the Windy City Times to fill us in. 

And the Beachwood Reporter published a story this week (with Chicago Talks) that puts the Chicago City Council in an uncomfortable position:  It turns out that some of the council's committee's frequently meet without having enough people there to legally do anything.  And they don't keep minutes either.

Some Chicago aldermen responded that the meetings aren't that important. 

But don't these guys get paid $104,000 a year?  And isn't this their job? 

Erica Christoffer, who co-wrote the story with Becky Schlikerman, joins us to puzzle it out. 

Plus, more of what you've been uploading to Vocalo.org, and this town's hottest tunes.  We're putting it in VocalOverdrive.
