  • Tales From the Blue Line - The B-Roll Man
    Mar 17 2026

    While scrubbing through a decade of Chicago news archives, a young producer discovers a man in a brown windbreaker who appears in the background of every major city event—from blizzards to crime scenes—without ever aging a single day.


    Tales From The Blue Line: Every morning at three, Mason and Ally ride the Blue Line into downtown Chicago together. The train brings out its own brand of weird, which has led to Mason and Ally trading spooky stories to help their commute pass a little faster.
