| There goes Stan starting up a bit with Terry even though his show is over. Terry lives in a ward that had a runoff and he did vote but he won't say who he voted for. |
| 2:05
| Does Terry live in Dorothy Tillman's ward? He has that feel to him. Steve drives through that ward when there's a Cubs game, it's a great way to avoid Lake Shore Drive. |
| 2:06
| Steve gets off the Stevenson at the Cermak/Chinatown ramp. Then he takes that to Clark which turns into some sort of bypass that speeds things up. |
| 2:07
| Stan wonders if Steve ever gets caught up in the food vortex in that area. Doesn't he want to hear the rest of Steve's route? Steve's just trying to get to work, he's not a traveling salesman driving around looking to get some shrimp to eat in his car. |
| 2:08
| Sometimes Steve wonders if he has enough time to stop for a bowl of wonton soup, but he never does. On Clark he turns left on Harrison until he gets to Lower Wacker and then BAM, he's here. |
| 2:09
| Steve doesn't mind sharing the route because not a lot of people travel to work at the same time he does. He'd prefer if Stan and Terry didn't talk about it on their show though. If people call in asking for the route they should act like they don't know what it is. |
| 2:10
| Steve heard Stan talking about the Virginia Tech shooting. He mentioned that two students were shot when he was at Bradley. They probably killed themselves during one of Stan's engineering lectures. |
| 2:11
| Steve walked by Garry Meier today and he didn't even recognize him. That's a bonus for Steve though. |
| 2:12
| Stan is very surprised that Steve knows Lower Wacker so well because so many people who aren't 606ers get lost down there. |
| 2:13
| Is that how Stan's rolling it now? Instead of the area code it's the zip code? That way you know for sure the person lives in the city. |
| 2:14
| Steve has a feeling his route to work when there's a Cubs game was designed as a shortcut, but it was still surprising when he found it. |
| 2:15
| Stan is interested in planning out more routes like this for when the Olympics comes here. That's not until 2016! Stan won't even be working here, he'll just be puttering around in his backyard. |
| 2:16
| The first thing Stan would like to see are electronic kiosks at every street corner with access to Mapquest or some sort of online map. |
| 2:17
| Why would we do that? It's easier to take advantage of tourists and rob them if they don't know where they're going. |
| 2:18
| Song: Sunny Afternoon, The Kinks |
| 2:22
| Pete played that song because it's summer? Or because it's a lazy afternoon? Actually it's because of the lyric "taxman's taken all my dough" because it's Tax Day. |
| 2:23
| Steve would have gone with Taxman by the Beatles but Pete wanted to save that for later in the show. He was also worried that if Stan and Terry decided to play a song today, it would be Taxman. Pete's schwartzing things right now. |
| 2:24
| Who cares what Stan and Terry play? Steve doesn't even listen to them. Pete only listens to get a feel for their show. |
| 2:25
| Here's the feel of the Stan & Terry Show as Steve sees it. Terry's just trying to get out of here and get to his other job where he does nothing. Meanwhile Stan is belaboring every single point that's made and then Bonnie interrupts him to feed him more info or disagree with him. |
| 2:26
| It's not summer yet but it is nice out, Steve's gonna leave it out. It's supposed to get colder tonight and Steve knows that because he's going to the Sox game. Why would it be warm when he goes to the Sox game? |
| 2:27
| It's supposed to warm up by the weekend though. Steve feels warm weather on the weekend does no one any good because it's too muddy to enjoy it. |
| 2:28
| Steve received an email from Ron Lewis telling him that he didn't even get to hear the show yesterday because how busy he was on the eve of Tax Day. |
| 2:29
| Ron said he'd be listening to the podcast to try to relax. He might not be able to because Ed Farmer was on the show for 4 1/2 hours. Steve loves Ed but he was exhausted after yesterday's show. |
| 2:30
| Ed talked for the entire time he was here, even during the breaks. Steve couldn't get him to go back to things he talked during the break while they were on the air either. |
| 2:31
| Buzz was able to sit back and enjoy the ride but Steve had to keep up with all of it. Other people like Mary or Tina tried to come in to distract Ed but it didn't work. |
| 2:32
| At one point Tina came in and accused Mary of only liking baseball because the players are cute. Steve thought he was going to see a cat fight unfold. |
| 2:33
| Steve has a jacket he can bring to the game tonight, but then Ed Farmer will see him wearing it and make fun of him on the air. What else is he supposed to do, it's freezing out there! |
| 2:34
| Steve's going to the game with Mike Dahl. He always has a hot dog waiting for him when he gets there. |
| 2:39
| Last night on King of Queens Doug's neighbor showed him how hot dogs were made and he became a vegetarian. |
| 2:40
| Then Doug became smarter because he was a vegetarian. Eventually he went back to eating meat because there was a fast food place selling a 5 patty burger with pizza on the bottom as the bun. |
| 2:41
| Steve is not aware of the new Kevin James/Adam Sandler movie. Steve doesn't really keep up on stuff like that but it'll probably be funny. |
| 2:42
| In the movie the two play firemen who get married for the benefits. That sounds pretty funny. |
| 2:43
| When Steve was fleeing the King of Queens studios on that one day when Craig Gass got him on the show, he noticed that Adam Sandler's offices were nearby. That's probably how they became friends. |
| 2:44
| That was a three cheeseburger day for Steve, three double cheeseburgers. He had one double cheeseburger on set and it had 1000 Island dressing on it. Steve hates 1000 Island but he didn't care at that point. |
| 2:45
| After Steve left the studios he went to Apple Pan and got another double cheeseburger, then he went back to the hotel and had lunch. |
| 2:46
| The name of the Kevin James/Adam Sandler movie is called I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. |
| 2:47
| Steve's trying to view the trailer but it keeps stopping and freezing up. What kind of website does that while Steve is on the air in Chicago trying to play it for free? |
| 2:48
| Steve's done giving this movie free pub. Kevin James still owes him a thank you for the steaks Steve sent him. |
| 2:49
| Steve still loves King of Queens which just shows how good it is. Steve also sent Kevin James a CD of Steve decanting the entire episode on the air and still nothing. |
| 2:54
| They didn't actually show you how hot dogs were made on King of Queens. Steve doesn't want to know from Buzz how it's done either. |
| 2:55
| Buzz actually doesn't know much about how hot dogs are made. He's studiously avoided learning about that over the years. Steve still can't get a decent night's sleep in a hotel room after Dave Savini went into one with a black light. |
| 2:56
| Steve's in the middle of a trainer war at the gym. Cornell is very territorial and probably the trainer who's closest to a bodybuilder over there. |
| 2:57
| Yesterday Cornell asked the head trainer to move out of the way so Steve could get to a machine. The guy moved but didn't seem happy and then he kept coming back. |
| 2:58
| Steve told Cornell he'd be a character witness for him if something happened between the two trainers. Steve hates working out but he still goes because Cornell is a good trainer. |
| 2:59
| Today Steve and Cornell were discussing King of Queens. He's learning English from the show. Cornell is Romanian and it doesn't seem like there's such thing as a Romanian sense of humor so they always talk about things during the show that aren't funny like if the guy who plays Lou Ferrigno's wife on the show is his wife in real life. |
| 3:00
| Steve has two stupid music concepts that's he's trying to foist on the show. One of them is the featured artist which would be good if Steve's struggling to come up with a song to play that ties in with what he's talking about. |
| 3:01
| The other concept is whatever random song is shuffled to Steve on his iPod when he's walking. Steve still likes that concept but he doesn't walk everyday. He could lie about it though. |
| 3:02
| Yesterday Steve got shuffled three really good songs but he also thought it would be funny if he got shuffled some lamer songs. |
| 3:03
| Steve was on the treadmill on Sunday watching NASCAR and it made the hour go really fast. Watching baseball on the treadmill makes things go really slow. |
| 3:04
| So Steve's going to play the first song that was shuffled to him yesterday. If Pete can play Sunny Afternoon because it's Tax Day then all bets are off. |
| 3:05
| Pete was schwartzing his song selection for today, he was worried that Stan and Terry would play Taxman today so he didn't go with that one. |
| 3:06
| Pete already got schwartzed by Jeff earlier today when they discussed the 24 Report. Steve also talked to Jeff today but he just wasted his time. |
| 3:07
| Jeff sent Steve and email that said "call me" which he really hates getting. Steve also got one of those from Les Hollander yesterday. Then Steve called him and learned that he'd be fired. |
| 3:08
| A nice heads up in that email would have been good like "hey call me, I got fired." Apparently Steve was one of the first people here to find out about it because Drew didn't even know. |
| 3:09
| Song: Drops of Jupiter, Train |
| 3:12
| You gotta like a song where the writer can work in fried chicken and soy lattes. That sort of ties in with King of Queens since Doug went on a soy binge after became a vegetarian. |
| 3:13
| Train was on an Eric and Kathy New Year's special few years ago where the two of them talked over all of their favorite songs. |
| 3:14
| Steve's not sure how hard it is for Pete to find a commercial but there's a promo airing for a Christian Science show on the weekends. It sounds like it's hosted by a robot or Stephen Hawking. |
| 3:20
| The Eric and Kathy thing is a little different than Steve remembers but they're still talking over their favorite band. |
| 3:21
| Pete plays the Christian Science promo. It's probably not a computer but it sounds like a computer. It also sounds like an exciting show. On the other hand Steve is a big fan of medicine. He could also use a band-aid right now, is that against their religion? |
| 3:22
| Steve has a cut on his hand that keeps opening up from weightlifting. He can't bring himself to get weightlifting gloves. |
| 3:23
| Buzz didn't want to get the gloves either but once he did he was really glad he had them. Why does Steve see Buzz strutting around in the gloves and a weightlifting belt? |
| 3:24
| Buzz has an extra pair of gloves, maybe he could casually lend them to him. What if they had Glove Day on the show? |
| 3:25
| Sometimes Buzz will forget the gloves and not realize it until he gets to the gym. Then he's totally deflated because he knows every time he lifts a weight it'll hurt his hands. |
| 3:26
| Steve has something that's bugging him and he'd like to read it now. There are actually several things bothering him about this thing. There's a website called Chicagoist that's sort of like an alternative news source. Steve doesn't go there because he can just go to the Sun-Times website or Craigslist for the sex ads. |
| 3:27
| Just to give you an idea of what kind of website it is, Tina reads it. Jim kid and Pete probably do as well. Steve can't see Brendan reading it though, he's just on ESPN.com all day. |
| 3:28
| Tina set up an interview with Steve on Chicagoist and he was sent some questions by a kid who used to intern here. Steve sent his responses back to the kid but apparently they weren't crazy enough. The kid seemed to be looking to stir up trouble. He also might be mad that Matt Dahl has a show here. |
| 3:29
| That's not what's really bothering Steve though. Today on the latest addition of Chicagoist there's an interview with Mancow, which Mark Czerniec keeps moving to the top of his page. |
| 3:30
| Should Steve read this as himself or Mancow? Probably Mancow. In the interview Mancow says "I don't want to be a Steve Dahl type, who is really sad." What's sad about Steve's show? He's still on the air and he's got all these people working for him and doing good things for him. |
| 3:31
| Then Mancow says Steve is lost and it's like watching a dalmatian who's retired and runs to a fire every time he hears a fire bell. dalmatians don't run to fires, they just get on the fire truck. |
| 3:32
| After Steve read this he went out in the hallway and asked why his Chicagoist interview hadn't been posted. Steve took 45 minutes one night to answer all of this kid's questions. |
| 3:33
| The kid who interviewed Steve is the same one who interviewed Mancow. He'll have to make note of his name. |
| 3:39
| Steve loves the Mancow tape where he talks about foie gras. His favorite one is where he accuses Steve of having an employee who's job it was to get him Reuben sandwiches. What's wrong with that? |
| 3:40
| Live read: Cheeseburger in Paradise |
| 3:41
| Buzz needs to go out to Cheeseburger in Paradise, he'll love it. They've got a fantastic burger which as it turns out is Buzz's favorite food. It's also Steve's favorite food but for a time he overlooked it in his quest for greatness. |
| 3:42
| Wasn't Ground Chuck Buzz's radio name? |
| 3:43
| There are hamburger snobs out there who criticize the use of ground chuck in a burger but Buzz is here to say that ground chuck makes the best burgers. Other types of meat are fine for a burger but ground chuck is the best. |
| 3:44
| The burgers at Cheeseburger in Paradise were so good that Steve didn't even mind trying some that had mayo on them. They have more exotic mayo flavors though. |
| 3:45
| Steve would like to arrange a show dinner at Cheeseburger in Paradise. Maybe we could rent one of those party buses and have a dance party on the way out there. |
| 3:46
| Steve has the questions and answers from his own Chicagoist interview. Mark tells Steve that Chicagoist is a collective blog. Steve prefers to call it a circle blog. He'll also add Mark Czerniec to the list of people who read Chicagoist just for fun. |
| 3:47
| The kid who interviewed Steve was an intern for Pete McMurray. He was the kid who got arrested with that Mender kid when they went to the Angels hotel room to knock on their doors during the World Series. The kid also sent a demo to the station after Stern left, thinking he'd get the morning slot. He might be a bit delusional. |
| 3:48
| Steve knew the interview was going to go bad when the kid started off asking if him if he was brushing up on his Spanish in light of the station's ratings slide. That's when Buzz would have wadded the questions up and thrown them out. |
| 3:49
| Steve likes a challenge so he said "Si, es muy importante" and diffused the situation. |
| 3:50
| Steve's answers might have been too perfect which is not what the kid was looking for. |
| 3:51
| His next question was what Steve would do if he were program director. Would he bring back Pete McMurray? |
| 3:52
| Steve responded that he thought O & A would eventually catch on here. |
| 3:53
| The next question seems to be the whole point of the interview. He wanted to know if Steve's been accused of nepotism now that Matt has the one hour time slot where Penn used to be. |
| 3:54
| Remember, this kid is a bitter, former intern at the station. Steve's response was that in Chicago we're all about nepotism. |
| 3:55
| Then the kid asks him about his Tribune column and if there's been any pressure from the paper to talk about his past addictions. |
| 3:56
| Buzz has to say that this kid's questions don't see that out of line. In fact they all seem like the right questions to ask which begs the question, why wasn't the interview posted? |
| 3:57
| Steve didn't give the kind of answers the kid was looking for. He out interviewed him. |
| 4:04
| Steve did have a guy who got him Reuben sandwiches, but that wasn't his only job. Greg Solk started off getting Steve sandwiches. Technically those were just a corned beef sandwich on a bagel though. |
| 4:05
| It wasn't until after the Steve and Garry break up when Steve realized that Reuben's were the perfect hangover food. It has everything you need to get you back on track. |
| 4:06
| That Chalfin's place over by the Drake had a great Reuben but the cook wouldn't make one for Steve until 8:00 AM. That was a long three hour wait but luckily Steve had the newspapers to lay on. Is that the kind of hardcore stuff that Chicagoist kid was looking for? |
| 4:07
| Live read: Gierczyk Properties |
| 4:08
| Steve should probably get the "free, free, free" sound from the Gierczyk recorded spots. He could try to approximate it on his harmonizer but if he changes it off of Tyrone's setting he'll forget to put it back. Then Tyrone's voice will be really high. |
| 4:09
| There are a lot of different settings on this machine but Steve only likes to use the choptater setting. |
| 4:10
| There's another setting called sissy. How much more politically incorrect can you get? |
| 4:11
| Pete actually has the sound from the Gierczyk commercial. He played it before while Steve was trying to make the sound himself. It scared the hell out of him but he just thought he was having an aneurysm or something. |
| 4:12
| The new Gierczyk phone number is 888-UGLY BABY. On their billboards there's a picture of an ugly baby saying "free, free, free." |
| 4:13
| Pete just randomly played the baby sound. What's he doing in there?! He's probably reading Chicagoist. |
| 4:23
| How did Chuck Goudie get to Virginia Tech's campus by last night? Brian Williams showed up in a limo and interviewed a survivor in the backseat. That seems a bit inappropriate. |
| 4:24
| Even if you have a limo that doesn't mean you have to show it. It's bad enough to roll up in a limo but then he's doing interviews in it? At least he had the good sense to turn the fiber optic lights off. |
| 4:25
| Most of the coverage so far seems to be unnecessary. Steve gets that it's a tragedy but maybe they should leave these kids along for the time being. |
| 4:26
| Maybe they should rethink the whole 24-hour news channel. How about 8 hours of news and the rest is just cartoons? |
| 4:27
| Headlines with Buzz |
| 4:28
| The President and First Lady attended a convocation ceremony at Virginia Tech today. |
| 4:29
| In the wake of the shootings there are several website names for sale including VirginiaTechKiller.com and VirginiaTechRampage.org. What about HokieDokie.com? |
| 4:30
| The mayor of Nagasaki, Japan has been assassinated, possibly by a member of an organized crime family. |
| 4:40
| On the phone is Mark Schanowsky from Comcast Sportsnet. He's just waiting for the Cubs game to end, it's in the bottom of the 11th right now. Steve wasn't even paying attention. |
| 4:41
| The Cubs brought up Felix Pie to start at center which makes you think that Lou is a little different than Dusty Baker. |
| 4:42
| Lou realized things weren't exactly working in the first couple of weeks and the Soriano injury allowed him to bring up Pie. Luckily the injury to Soriano isn't too serious. |
| 4:43
| Felix Pie had a double which scored a run and a put out at home from center. Plus he works a lot cheaper. If he plays well in the next few days Soriano might find himself in left field when he comes back. |
| 4:44
| The Cubs get a lot of criticism for not having any homegrown talent but we're finally seeing that with Pie, Ryan Theriot and Matt Murton. |
| 4:45
| The Sox are playing the Rangers tonight and Sammy is expected to play. The over/under is three strikeouts. |
| 4:46
| The Bulls final game is tomorrow in New Jersey. They need to win that last game to get the #2 seed in the East. |
| 4:47
| Podsednik is on the DL again with a groin injury. What's with his groin? Does he need a groinectomy? |
| 4:48
| There also doing a report about what's next for the Olympics bid but Comcast isn't going to talk about the Olympics everyday for the next 2 1/2 years. |
| 4:49
| Even if we do get the bid it's another 7 years before the games. Then they tear the city up and build a bunch of new stuff. |
| 4:50
| Mike Dahl kept saying that Sammy wouldn't bat tonight. Why wouldn't he? They're trying to entertain people out there. |
| 4:51
| Steve doesn't hate Sammy Sosa so he won't be booing him. Mike will probably drown him out though. Mike's not as bad as Pat Dahl though. He was the guy heckling Peyton Manning at the Super Bowl during the National Anthem. |
| 4:57
| The 24 Report has a sponsor, can you believe it! GUH! Jeff doesn't even want to do the report any more because he doesn't like the show. Treasure your family Buzz! |
| 4:58
| Steve had the 24 Report music playing during the commercials but he's not sure how it happened. Then he heard Jim yelling for Mary from down in his office. She thought Jim had been injured so she ran down. |
| 4:59
| Then Steve came out of the Green Room and Jim was running up to the studio to turn the music off. When he saw Steve he sort of stopped but Steve told him to keep going. He sort of got a little panicky. |
| 5:00
| Apparently Pete wasn't paying attention. He's still mad at Steve because he called him out for still liking Guster, even though they're opening for Dave Matthews Band. |
| 5:01
| Jeff is very sad for 24 because it's just not good any more. It's like losing a member of your family, and family is very important. |
| 5:02
| As far as Steve's concerned the show end with Fayed hanging from that chain dead. They should have called it 18 instead of 24 |
| 5:03
| The highlight for Buzz was when President Palmer started having trouble talking during his press conference. |
| 5:04
| Last night's episode really made Steve hungry for Chinese food. When is someone on that show going to eat? |
| 5:05
| Jeff can't believe that no one has ever done a parody of 24, like maybe on SNL which is a parody show. Steve loves when Jeff explains things like that. Is he sitting on a throne when he makes this phone call? |
| 5:06
| After this phone call Jeff has to go to his mother's house to start her car because she hasn't driven in 7 weeks. She doesn't plan on driving anywhere but she still wants him to start it. |
| 5:07
| Jeff is like his mom's servant. Why does he need to go over there if she doesn't drive? |
| 5:08
| Caller Blair wanted to let Steve and Jeff know that SNL did a 24 parody when Elisha Cuthbert hosted the show a few years ago. |
| 5:09
| This phone call isn't really going anywhere so Steve's going to give Blair a spin and send him off. |
| 5:10
| Audrey is not worth Jack saving her. She should have just called Jack to say that she did that show The Nine, it got canceled and now she's in China. |
| 5:11
| Jeff doesn't think she's in China because Jack has to rescue her. Flying to China would be an entirely different season's worth of episodes. |
| 5:12
| Jeff loves 24 so it's really hard for him to watch these bad episodes. When Steve talked to him earlier today he was really down about it. |
| 5:19
| Jack Bauer could probably use the bathroom without anyone seeing it but what about eating? |
| 5:20
| During the break before last when the 24 music playing a funny scenario played out. As it turns out it's even funnier than Steve described it. |
| 5:21
| Jim went into the studio and yelled for Mary but she thought he was down in the office. Then he ran down to find her and Steve told him to go back and turn off the music. |
| 5:22
| Eventually someone figured it out. Maybe Jim should come down and explain it because Steve still feels he doesn't fully know what happened. It seemed like a Three Stooges bit though. |
| 5:23
| Jim was sitting in the office and heard the music. Then he ran down here to turn it off and stopped when Steve came out of the Green Room. Steve told him to keep going and turn it off but when he got to the studio he couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Then he yelled for Mary who thought he was down in the office. |
| 5:24
| Jim totally panicked though. Is he taking Pete's Panicking Class at Columbia? |
| 5:25
| Jim was at a wedding over the weekend. He didn't get married though, but he's still dating a black girl. His college roommate got married and he was in the wedding. |
| 5:26
| So with this Virginia Tech shooting, the found a note left by the alleged shooter. The kids name is Seung-Hui Cho but over there they do all the names last name first. That means they're always ready for roll call in gym. |
| 5:27
| Last night Steve saw Michael Sneed saying the kid was from China but he's actually from Korea. |
| 5:28
| Some Virginia Tech official was saying that after the first shooting in the dorm the school had no way to notify all the commuter students not to come into school. How about the radio! There's one of those in every car! |
| 5:29
| Live read: Townstone Financial |
| 5:39
| Another article Steve has about the gunman refers to him as Cho Seung-Hui which is the way they say it in Korea. |
| 5:40
| One student who attended Virginia Tech provided screenplays written by Cho for a playwriting class that were laden with obscenity and violence. |
| 5:41
| The Washington Post quoted one law enforcement source who said Cho died with the words "Ismail Ax" on red ink on his arm. |
| 5:47
| It seems like if two students are killed on a college campus you cancel classes just as a precaution. |
| 5:48
| This whole thing makes Steve worried about how prepared the country is for a terrorist attack. There are plenty of people on campus now that all the shootings have happened though. |
| 5:49
| Michael Sneed had this kid coming from Beijing recently and then CNN ran with it. |
| 5:50
| Then the Today Show had Matt Lauer on campus interviewing kids in the cafeteria. That's the last thing you need when you're trying to choke down some Jell-O after surviving the worst shooting the history of the country. |
| 5:51
| Then they had producers who looked young enough to be students sneaking into dorms for interviews. These news people are crazy. |
| 5:59
| If Steve thought that maybe this kid would one day go on a rampage and he didn't do anything about it, he wouldn't be talking to the media. |
| 6:00
| Now the media is focused on the school not reacting properly to the first 2 shootings. Does that really matter now? |
| 6:01
| It seems like you should always be thinking worst case scenario in a situation like this. |
| 6:02
| There's something on Mark Czerniec's page but the link to the story is bad. It's a link to a blog that links to a photo of a kid who looks like Cho. |
| 6:03
| The caption of the photo is from a guy who says that this kid refers to himself as Ismail because his real name, Cho Seung Hoo is too hard to pronounce. |
| 6:04
| Mark Czerniec is on the phone. The link on his page is to a blog called Boing Boing. There's a small picture on that page and it really does look like him. |
| 6:05
| There's something on Wikipedia about how the name Ismail has become a pseudonym for people who feel like outsiders. |
| 6:06
| There's also a thread on this Boing Boing website that talks about the Islamic meaning behind the name Ismail.mail |
| 6:07
| Steve doesn't understand why they didn't warn the students via the radio. They also had a system that could send out text messages to all of the students without overloading cell towers. |
| 6:08
| Mark was pretty numb from watching the coverage last night because it was the same video over and over again with nothing new. |
| 6:09
| Then there are people who are trying to trot out the Guinness Book of World Records and say this is the worst school shooting ever. Do we really want to turn this into a competition? |
| 6:10
| The news channels love to compare this to old shootings because then they can trot out the old file footage. |
| 6:11
| Live read: Balance for LIfe |
| 6:17
| Last night someone was interviewing a janitor at Virginia Tech. Steve thought he was watching Deliverance. |
| 6:18
| Steve started the day off saying he was going to play 3 songs that were shuffled to him on his iPod yesterday. He's only played one but he'd like to play at least one more and then do the news. |
| 6:19
| Steve and Buzz already did a substantial chunk about the Virginia Tech shootings and now he'd like to play a really depressing Walter Becker song about heroin addiction. |
| 6:20
| Song: Down in the Bottom, Walter Becker |

| 10,000 gathered on the Virginia Tech campus to remember those killed in yesterday's shooting. President Bush and the First Lady were in attendance as well. |

| In Cho's letter he railed against the debauchery and charlatans at his school. Aren't those the reasons you go to college? |

| An upcoming episode of the Fox show Bones has been pulled out of respect for those killed at Virginia Tech. |
| 6:35
| The episode dealt with the discovery of human remains found on a college campus. Airing in it's place will be a rerun. Can't they just move next week's episode up one week. |

| The SUV carrying New Jersey governor John Corzine to a meeting with Don Imus and members of the Rutgers women's basketball team was going 91 mph when it crashed. |

| Steve really wants to play the third song that was shuffled to him yesterday but it's over 5 minutes long and there's still another break to play. |
| 6:50
| Steve wants Buzz to make the call, he wants him more involved in the show. Steve would rather wait until tomorrow. |
| 6:51
| Steve's going to play a clip of the third song because tomorrow 3 more new songs will be served up to him and then he'll get behind. The third song from yesterday is a live Wilco song. |
| 6:52
| Song: Via Chicago, Wilco |
| 6:56
| It sounds like an EL train sound on that song but it seems a bit loud on the live performance. Steve asked Jim kid and he said he wasn't sure. Isn't he supposed to be a Wilco fan? Pete thinks it's an EL train. They might want to turn it down a bit during the live show but that's just how Jeff Tweedy does it. |

| It seemed like that George Castle guy was hassling Lou Piniella again today after 14 innings. He really gets under his skin. |
| 7:04
| Matt points out that the guy who won the game for the Padres was former White Sock Geoff Blum. He also won game three for the Sox in the 17th inning. |
| 7:05
| Do the boys have anything on tap for tonight? Because when Steve walked down to their office Brendan had his feet up on the desk looking at porn on his computer and Matt was staring at the wall. |
| 7:06
| Steve and Buzz do that too. Sometimes he's staring at the wall and Buzz is looking at the porn and sometimes it's the other way around. You've got to switch things up. |
