Focus on "… lost years on the outskirts of the early 90s Chicago music scene, where she also worked for a young Michelle Obama.

So he states "early 90s" and "Chicago music scene" and that she then worked for Michelle Obama and (evidently) had an office to which Barry came in to visit.
So let's look at the early 90s and Michelle's resume, shall we? Okay…
In 1991 Michelle took a job working as an assistant to Mayor Richard Daley thereafter as the assistant commissioner of planning and development for the City of Chicago.
In 1993 she became executive director for the Chicago office of Public Allies (non profit bullshit)
In 1996 she became the associate dean at the University of Chicago.
McNamara moved to LA in 1997.
I wonder what she did when she worked for Michelle Obama in either the Mayors office, University of Chicago deans office or the useless non profit. I wonder…..
