Senator Bernie Sanders came to Philadelphia City Hall this week to speak out against the current administration in a rally that drew a crowd of thousands. Plus, people are enraptured by “Conclave” playing out in real life - a Villanova expert joins us to look ahead at the gathering to choose a new pope. And Philadelphia City Council debates the merits of mobile services that provide medical help and other resources to Kensington. Matt Leon and KYW Newsradio’s team break down all of this and more of the biggest headlines in the Philadelphia region, including a look at Chubby Checker’s legacy as he finally makes the cut to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
