From the Skokie Swift down to 95th, and every awful station and stop in between, CTA Fails collects and shares the most head-shaking moments from the terrible transit system that Chicagoans love to loathe. Hosted by longtime Chicagoans Ryan Smith and Clayton Smith, CTA Fails is a hilarious and truly cathartic celebration of the awfulness of the Chicago Transit Authority, and of the indomitable commuter spirit!
