About this listen

 Florian Sohnke joined the podcast to discuss:
  • The origins and mission of the Chicago Contrarian as a conservative media outlet
  • The deep challenges facing Chicago: public finances, failing schools, and public transit
  • The growing but often overlooked conservative constituency in a deeply blue city
Florian Sohnke is a freelance writer, editor, and speechwriter who founded the Chicago Contrarian five years ago to provide a consistent conservative voice in a city dominated by progressive politics. Under his leadership, the Contrarian has grown to over 20,000 monthly readers and 50,000 followers on social media, offering sharp commentary and policy solutions for Chicago’s most pressing problems. Sohnke has become a key figure in Chicago’s conservative media movement, championing fiscal responsibility, education reform, and the revival of urban Republicanism.
