Ep. 38: Anthony Rodriguez on Standup and Special Education

Two U.S. presidents, Jimi Hendrix, Frank Sinatra, and hundreds more have graced the Auditorium Theatre stage. On graduation day, Commencement speaker Anthony Rodriguez joins them with his official send-off to his classmates.


Back in 2010, Anthony started his career with the Chicago Public Schools district as a substitute bus aide. In 2021, armed with his Roosevelt University degree, he will assume a new role in his field of special education. 


Anthony and I talked about his path to graduation, the challenges of distance learning, and his love of standup comedy. Congratulations on your well-earned degree, Anthony, and I hope all of you will enjoy our conversation.
