Description

The Lore is a Chicago sports podcast about the stories that live around the games.

Hosted by Tom Loxas, the show sits at the intersection of sports, music, media, and city culture—exploring the moments, sounds, and rituals that made Chicago sports feel bigger than the box score.

Each episode features a guest with a real connection to the city, revisiting:

• Chicago moments that stuck

• Cultural lore—songs, broadcasts, places, and personalities—that shaped how it all felt

It’s not about stats or headlines.
It’s about why this stuff mattered—and why it still does.
