Eckhartz Everyday

 July 18 is a big day in Cubsessions history.

*In 2018, Cubsessions had it's own night at the Book Cellar in Lincoln Square. In 2019, Cubsessions was part of a huge celebration at Club 400 in Lake in the Hills. Carlos Zambrano and Willson Contreras were there.

Eckhartz Everyday

 *Today is Stevie Wonder's birthday. Stevie is prominently featured in John Landecker's book Records Truly Is My Middle Name. John was with Stevie (at WILV-Lansing) the moment they heard about Martin Luther King's assassination. (Photo: John in the WILV studio/1968)

*On May 13, 1981, Pope John Paul II was shot. Roger Badesch was on the radio at the time, and shares that story in the pages of his book The Unplanned Life.

*May 13 is also Cubs catcher Willson Contreras' birthday. Cubsessions author Randy Richardson and I were lucky enough to meet Willson and give him a copy of Randy's book..
