WEDNESDAYS WITH WHIT ON WGN RADIO

Midweek can feel busy, but that’s exactly when a dose of inspiration goes a long way. Each week on WGN Radio, Wednesdays with Whitney brings meaningful stories, local spotlights, and thoughtful conversations straight to your day.

This segment is here to be that pause, that reset, and that little reminder of what matters most. I bring you stories that aren’t just headlines — they’re heartlines. You’ll hear from incredible people making an impact, whether it’s a local neighbor creating change in Chicago or a voice from across the globe sharing resilience and hope.

But it’s not just about the interviews. It’s about connection. I weave in updates from my PBS show, share what’s happening in and around Chicago, and offer conversations that feel like you’re sitting across the table with a friend.

Because sometimes, we just need a reminder in the middle of the week that there’s good out there — and that we’re part of it.

In this crossover special Whitney Reynolds is brining her current season 9 to WGN with local experts who also weigh in. This hope filled half hour will remind you, your story matters and hope is found in every season.
