South Side Pod

We're in Lemont at Barrel & Vine to find a lot more than just wine in the trendy restaurant owned by a local couple. Find out why fresh food matters and if a smoked old fashioned can rank as one of the South Side's best. We're also visiting Cork & Kerry to meet a man called Cramer with some big opinions. Plus a fight involving maybe Kid Rock even breaks out in "30 Minutes of Good!"
