It's a special post-election edition of the Chicago Inno Show.

The Big One: The credibility of polls and data took a hit this election, as many showed Hillary Clinton with a clear path to victory, only to flip flop halfway through the night as Donald Trump consistently won swing states. Karis, Jim and Will break down why this happened and what it means for polling tech ahead, plus what a Trump presidency will mean for Chicago tech.

The One-on-One: Karis breaks down the election, civic tech and down-ballot races with Aviva Rosman and Alex Niemczewski, cofounders of BallotReady, a voter education platform that rolled out in 12 states this election.

The Fun One: Will takes us on a ride along with the Modobag, a Chicago-made motorized carry-on luggage.

If you're new to the podcast side of Chicago Inno, every other week we bring you an hour of radio covering big recent news ("The Big One"), thoughtful conversations with movers and shakers in the tech community ("The One-On-One"), and a fun segment with a ridiculous game or story from the tech world ("The Fun One").

We constantly cover startups, innovators, and entrepreneurs being creative and trying new things, so we figured it was time we do the same. As always, let us know what you think.
