About

The mic goes where the story is

DJ U TV started in October 2015 with a simple premise: Chicago’s stories are best told by the people living them, on their own block, in their own words. A decade and more than 1,500 interviews later, that premise has held.

Host DJ U works as a journalist first. He puts people on record before anyone else is asking, then follows the threads that matter to the city long after the news cycle moves on: courtrooms, families, neighborhoods, the aftermath. That is why an audience of 421,000 keeps coming back, and why the archive has been watched more than 152 million times.

No press junket. No handlers.
