Career
Since 2013, Arkush has teamed with Shawn Media to lead the Chicago Football project. Chicago Football is a magazine, website and TV show dedicated to coverage of the Bears and other football topics relevant to northern Illinois. He created and co-hosted the syndicated Pro Football Weekly radio and TV shows, and also worked as a radio commentator on the Chicago Bears Radio Network from 1987 to 2004. Since 2006 he has also served as an analyst and sideline reporter on the Westwood One national radio broadcasts of NFL games, and is a contributor to WBBM radio and WBBM-TV. As an NFL insider, he is a regular fill-in host and contributor for sports radio station (and WBBM radio sister station) WSCR. Arkush stirred controversy by stating he would not vote for Aaron Rodgers for MVP in the wake of the 2021 season. Arkush never specifically said Rodgers’ vaccination status entered into the decision. Instead, referring to Rodgers’ 2021 training camp standoff with the Packers, Arkush said, “I don't think you can be the biggest jerk in the league and punish your team, and your organization and your fan base the way he did and be the Most Valuable Player.”

Family
Arkush and his wife, Candace, have three children; Billy (b. 1978), Arthur (b. 1982), and Taylor (b. 1985). He is of Romanian descent.
