🍺 Rick Lesser pulls up a chair at Duffer's with Pete and Jeff for the most Lake Bluff conversation we've ever recorded. Rick was on the village board when Lake Bluff went from a dry town in the '90s — no bars, no restaurants, nothing — to a place where you walk the block party with a beer in a red wagon. From there it's everywhere: the Route 60 dead zone that ate everyone's phone in the storm, the craft beer crash from twelve taps down to three, Illinois pensions and who's actually stuck paying, "Winter Club Jeff," and what's being floated for Bank Lane this summer. We document.
