It's Monday, which means it's time for another episode of the CCLaP Podcast. Today, a three-minute video tour of the infamous Chicago rite of passage "The Brew N View" (held within the Vic Theatre at Belmont and Sheffield in Lakeview), wherein recent movies are shown on a giant screen, along with liquor sold, and audience members encouraged to shout back at the films. Also featuring the music of Creative Commons recording artist Jason Rubero.
