In the latest episode, we talk to a circus power couple. He is a professional juggler, a AGT finalist, a family man, and proud Ukrainian. His wife, a world famous Mongolian contortionist. Viktor Kee and Ulzii Mergen talk about their experiences in the spotlight, her harrowing journey from war-torn Ukraine and their hopes for their new lives in Chicago.

The podcast will continue on a monthly basis where we'll give you an inside look at the arts & culture scene around the Chicagoland area.
