| Where is Steve's mic condom? He doesn't like to pop his p's. Terry of all people should be wearing a mic condom. |
| 2:04
| Stan and Terry were talking about female race car drivers. Back in the day people were against it. |
| 2:05
| Steve used to like the Indy 500 but he doesn't any more. It's all different now with the two leagues |
| 2:06
| One of the main reasons Steve doesn't like Indy racing is there are too many foreigners. They're all Formula-1 guys who just want to win the Indy 500. |
| 2:07
| There's also a frenetic, X-Games style coverage of the Indy 500. Steve doesn't mind that in NASCAR but he likes his Indy coverage more traditional. |
| 2:08
| Terry doesn't like the Indy coverage but he doesn't like coverage on a lot of other sports too. |
| 2:09
| It's hard to even watch the Sox on Fox Saturday Baseball. Terry would much rather have Hawk and DJ. |
| 2:10
| Jeffrey went 0-2 in his baseball game last night. He went down swinging in the first at-bat and then hit a long fly ball in the second at-bat. |
| 2:11
| Jeffrey was probably terrified standing in the batters box. Either that or he was way out in front of all the pitches because Stan put him in the 100+ batting cage. |
| 2:12
| Stan and Terry's movie screening the other day also went really well. Steve sent Stan something on their funny email address but they never check that. |
| 2:13
| It was a YouTube clip of the guy who Don Cheadle was playing in that movie demonstrating how to eat a watermelon. |
| 2:14
| Stan and Terry think Steve would really like Talk to Me. Is Don Cheadle like The Ladies Man in that? |
| 2:15
| Stan and Terry really need to see this video though. It's insightful, funny and stereotype-busting. |
| 2:16
| Steve didn't think he could use the video on the air because people might think it's racist but Stan and Terry might be able to. |
| 2:17
| He's not sure if the guy was swearing in the video though. Petey Greene did swear a lot on the air though. |
| 2:18
| Steve's looking forward to seeing the movie when it's on DVD. Maybe they could tell Don Cheadle that when they see him. |
| 2:27
| It's Thursday which means it's time for Music Snob Corner with our own Pete Zimmerman. It's always challenging to have him in here. |
| 2:28
| Steve was struggling to find a theme in the show open until he remembered that it was probably Pete's week-in-review one day early |
| 2:29
| Was there another argument on The View today? Steve forgot to tune in. It was actually pre-empted by George Bush. Talk about a Republican throwdown. |
| 2:30
| Pete's not sure if it's nerves but his breathing is never right when he's in the studio. Mary brought Pete a water which is inappropriate. He can't just take the water either he has to giggle about it and then thank her. |
| 2:31
| Rosie wasn't even on The View today it might have been her scheduled day-off. |
| 2:32
| Next time Pete needs to bring his own water in, even though his throat is feeling much better. |
| 2:33
| Pete has been having trouble finding cream for his coffee in Rogers Park. That's probably because Rogers Park is full of lesbians and they can lactate right into their coffee. |
| 2:34
| Pete did find cream at 7-11 today actually. This is a great story he's telling. Maybe the chair Pete is sitting in causes all these problems. Steve could have been wrong to blame Wendy. |
| 2:35
| Pete only had a $20 and they wouldn't make change for anything above a $20 before 8:00 AM. Pete had a $20 though, what's the problem? |
| 2:36
| Did Pete do any reconnaissance before he bought his condo in Rogers Park? No wonder he needs the water. |
| 2:37
| Pete hasn't had his coffee today so he's off-kilter. Why doesn't he just buy some non-dairy creamer? Pete is more routinized than Buzz and he's the most routinized person Steve knows. |
| 2:38
| Is Pete retarded? Because Steve doesn't like when people like O & A have retarded people on their show to make fun of them. He doesn't want to be doing that. |
| 2:39
| Pete has a certain way he drinks coffee, lots of cream and sugar. Why doesn't he just drink hot chocolates? Stephanie has actually turned him onto mochas. Does he want her to bring one of those in? Then he can giggle and thank her? |
| 2:40
| Steve gets Pete's act, he's trying to make himself look wounded and helpless so women will want to help him. He might be too wounded and too crazy now. He needs to dial it back. |
| 2:41
| Steve got another close-up look at Pete's room yesterday and it's totally out-of-control. He will be cleaning it out this weekend. Pete is looking forward to doing it which is a good sign. |
| 2:42
| What Pete needs to do is just listen to everything Steve tells him. It's like after the Arcade Fire show when he didn't want to take the limo home. Then he made all these phone calls asking if he should take the limo. |
| 2:43
| Pete's not a quick decision maker. After he decided to take the limo he also gave a ride to Jim and his black girlfriend which was unauthorized. |
| 2:44
| Pete felt weird getting in the limo while Jim and his girlfriend took the train home. Steve can see what he's saying there, it was a good idea to give them a ride back to the girlfriend's place on the South side. |
| 2:45
| Pete's paper was also pilfered today which threw him off a bit. Pete's building has internal hallways but the papers are thrown in the court yard. Every morning he wakes up to look outside and see if the paper's are out there. What a life he leads. |
| 2:46
| After the cream fiasco Pete was going to boycott 7-11 but then he had to buy his paper there. How can he boycott 7-11? It's his go to store. |
| 2:47
| Sounds like a great place Pete is living. It seems like he could have moved somewhere close to a grocery store and taken the money he saved not buying his groceries at 7-11 and put that towards his mortgage. |
| 2:48
| Pete has an hour commute both ways to work. He is reading like a madman now though. He's pretty happy up there even though his paper gets stolen. |
| 2:49
| Pete was thinking of calling his alderman Joe Moore because he's adept at fighting crime. He got foie gras banned and last week he stopped a purse snatcher. |
| 2:50
| Pete needs to move somewhere that sounds cool when he talks to women who aren't lesbians. Rogers Park sounds like he's living in his parents house after they died. |
| 2:51
| Steve needs to take a break before we play Pete's song. Maybe we can get him some coffee with cream in it. |
| 2:52
| Steve has learned to drink his coffee black. It sounds cooler plus no matter what is available at least he'll get what he wants. |
| 2:56
| Pete is here for Music Snob Corner. He is of course a resident of Rogers Park. It's not that bad of a neighborhood, he got what he could afford. Steve makes fun of him but he makes fun of everyone. |
| 2:57
| Pete also signed up for that I-Go car share thing. The guy still hasn't given Pete a free membership though. Next Thursday they're having a record release party for a compilation CD of Chicago artists that will be in every I-Go car. |
| 2:58
| That sounds like what Steve was trying to do with Local Band-Aid before Drew ran it by legal and told him he couldn't use that name. |
| 2:59
| Caller Ryan is over by Rogers Park, near the border in Edgewater. That's a slightly better neighborhood but Joe Moore is still his alderman. There's a huge goose liver problem in Rogers Park and Edgewater as well as in Lincoln Park. |
| 3:00
| Buzz won't even take his daughter to Lincoln Park because there are always people grabbing geese and force feeding them to fatten their livers. Pete is fighting the urge to run into the other room and grab the Mancow/foie gras thing. He can wait until the next break to play it. |
| 3:01
| Ryan wanted to alert Steve and Pete to a website called The Broken Heart of Rogers Park. Some people on their are speculating that the whole purse snatching thing was staged by Joe Moore. |
| 3:02
| There's a CAPS meetings tonight, is Pete going? Buzz, any interest? The meeting is at 7:00 and Pete won't even get up there until 8:00. Ryan doesn't understand why it takes Pete an hour to get home. |
| 3:03
| Steve loves when Pete explains why it takes him so long. He won't take the bus. The bus ride would take him 20 minutes. |
| 3:04
| Is Pete sure he's not retarded? Is there some sort of test we can run or something? |
| 3:05
| Caller Val wanted to let Steve know that cutting coffee with a little cream prevents it from staining your teeth. |
| 3:06
| Steve's teeth look alright although yesterday at the dentist they tried to sell him on a teeth whitening. Why would Steve want totally white teeth? |
| 3:07
| Steve plays the Mancow/foie gras tape. This might not be the right one. |
| 3:08
| It sounds to Buzz that Mancow has flip-flopped on the foie gras ban. In this tape he is all for the freedom to do what you want including eating foie gras but in the other one he's against it. |
| 3:09
| Accusing Mancow of being inconsistent doesn't really amount to much though. That's sort of his act. |
| 3:17
| Mancow flip-flops so hard that you can't even follow what's going on. That's his talent. |
| 3:18
| Steve hates foie gras so he doesn't even care. He doesn't like eating innards and liver is the cesspool of the body. |
| 3:19
| On the other hand, who cares what happens to a goose? Geese don't even care as long as it's happening to someone else. They're just trying not to get shot. |
| 3:20
| Today's song is by a band called The National. They're a rock band from New York and they're coming to town soon if Steve likes them. Will the play at a small place? |
| 3:21
| Their last album was well-received and Pete feels the new one will catapult them to new levels of success. |
| 3:22
| Song: Mistaken for Strangers, The National |
| 3:25
| That kind of sounded like the first time the guy ever tried to sing the song. For the first time it sounded excellent to Buzz. |
| 3:26
| Someone sent an email to Pete telling him to take a walk down to Walgreen's because they're having a sale on milk this week. That's from a thrifty, non-lesbian living in Rogers Park. |
| 3:27
| Pete's not sure where the Walgreen's is because he doesn't venture out that much. Plus if he went to Walgreen's he'd have to pick up his meds. |
| 3:32
| Just something to clean up from yesterday, the pronunciation of Ginger Zee's real last name. Steve thought it was Zweed-geest but it's actually Zudgeest. |
| 3:33
| Steve likes Zweed-geest, it has a certain je ne sais ce qui. Steve knew Zee was a fake last name though, he's been in broadcasting long enough to recognize one. |
| 3:34
| The father of Cardinals pitcher Josh Hancock is suing Mike Shannon's Restaurant for providing drinks to his son even though he was intoxicated. |
| 3:35
| Also named in the suit is the company who owned the tow truck that Hancock crashed into as well as the driver of the tow truck and the driver of the car who the tow truck driver was helping out. |
| 3:36
| So it's everyone's fault except the guy who drove drunk, with pot in the car, while talking on his cellphone. |
| 3:37
| The lawsuit claims that he driver of the car being towed was negligent in letting his car get to that point and for not getting it off the road and out of traffic. |
| 3:38
| The car became stalled when it spun out after being cut off by another driver. They need to find that other driver and sue him. |
| 3:39
| It seems like in cases like this you're responsible for your own actions. Maybe you can blame the bar but not the guy driving the Geo Prism. |
| 3:40
| If you're driving a Geo Prism, what else do you have left? He should sue Josh Hancock's family for outing him as a Geo Prism driver. |
| 3:47
| Buzz doesn't have his copy for the Comcast Sports Report. Wait to he hears who we're talking to today! The Stuckwad! |
| 3:48
| Luke Stuckmeyer is on the phone. He's not sure Stuckwad is a good nickname. He doesn't have a choice in the matter though. |
| 3:49
| Luke thinks it sounds a lot like Suckwad. Steve doesn't need the nickname explained to him by some kid on cable who just got his pubic hair. |
| 3:50
| Steve was just recounting the tale of Josh Hancock's dad blaming everyone but his son for the car accident. Steve feels really bad for the Geo Prism driver. It's bad enough your driving a Geo Prism. |
| 3:51
| Luke's driving an Acura that comes with CD standard and an iPod plug-in. He's also got a GPS. That's fully-loaded. That means if he's ever looking for an alternate route to Wrigley he can find one. Good luck with that! |
| 3:52
| It took Steve 2 hours to get there last Friday and he had to stop at Burger King to use the bathroom. They did have sweet TVs with the game on and WiFi access. |
| 3:53
| Luke can think of better places to use WiFi than Burger King. He's very argumentative today, did he just get a raise? Luke was nothing before he started talking to Steve and Buzz. Now he's a household name. |
| 3:54
| Steve could see himself eating a Whopper in that Burger, cut in half with no mayo. |
| 3:55
| On the way back from the broadcast last Friday Steve had several food options open to him but he went with Taco Bell because they're a new sponsor. |
| 3:56
| Steve's just joking about Luke's name though. Stuckwad does seem like a dangerous thing for him to say, it's too close to something really bad. Luke doesn't mind what Steve calls him. |
| 3:57
| When Luke was in high school there was a kid who called him Puke Stuckonmytire. Whoa! That's some freestyling right there. What did Luke do to this kid? |
| 4:05
| Now back to Luke Stuckmeyer. The Sox lost last night and the Cubs did too. They've lost 3 in a row and their last 4 road games. |
| 4:06
| The Cubs have Marquis going tonight but the Sox are off. It seems like they were off last night too. |
| 4:07
| Luke thinks the two teams should combine forces and that would equal one good team. Steve already has his tickets as long as they play all the games at The Cell. |
| 4:08
| Tonight on Chicago Tribune Live Dan Jiggetts is talking to John Paxson about the Bulls draft. |
| 4:09
| Steve feels that Stuckwad is a better nickname than Puke Stuckonmytire. |
| 4:10
| Steve likes Luke but he was nothing before he started talking to Steve and Buzz. He sounded a little Stuck-up today. When Steve gives you a nickname you don't complain about it, you just accept it and move on. |
| 4:11
| Luke does have a tricked-out Acura so he's riding high on that. Steve doesn't know much about the Japanese cars but he's pretty sure it's pretty nice. That Ford company is making some nice cars but that logo is funky. The Chevy logo is sweet though. |
| 4:12
| Caller Jules was going to call Steve Bob. That's alright but he prefers to be called Steve. |
| 4:13
| The Acura is a pretty high-end car, like a Cadillac. |
| 4:14
| Caller Chris has some info about the Chevy logo. It's called the Chevy bow tie. Ford is making some nice cars right in the Chicago area too. |
| 4:15
| Steve would buy a Ford without that logo, he's brand conscious. Steve keeps calling Ford to complain but no one takes his calls. |
| 4:16
| Steve had one of the first Ford Explorers and he loved it. He had the Eddie Bauer Ford Explorer. |
| 4:17
| Chris thinks Steve should suggest a Ford Explorer Tommy Bahama Edition. That's a good idea but if Steve suggested it he'd be cut right out of it. |
| 4:18
| The Chevy bow tie logo was conceived by William Durant in 1908. He noticed the design on some wallpaper in a Paris Hotel room and envisioned in marching off into infinity. Was he maybe doing some absinthe at the time? |
| 4:26
| William Durant's full name is William Crapo "Billy" Durant. Crapo is a sweet middle name. |
| 4:27
| Tyrone is checking in with some traffic from the choptater. The only car that matters to him is the Cadillac and that was named after Indians. |
| 4:28
| There could be some guy named Bobby Cadillac but he doesn't know for sure. |
| 4:29
| Tyrone has some bad news and some worse news. The bad news, I-55 is shut down both ways between 355 and 53 due to a fire in Harvey. That doesn't make any sense though. |
| 4:30
| The worse news was a fire at an RV dealer. That's probably what is causing the traffic jam on I-55. |
| 4:31
| OK here's Tyrone's report. Anywhere that has a big fire with smoke going out on the road, there's gonna be traffic. |
| 4:32
| The RV dealer is in Bolingbrook where Steve was trying to get himself an RV from for last summer's beach parties. |
| 4:33
| Tyrone recalls Steve being unhappy with the RV the station got him. It was far from the broadcast and the back of it was supposed to be used for dirt bikes. |
| 4:34
| If Buzz turns around he can see the fire on CLTV. It doesn't seem like any RVs are on fire, they might be looking to deal out there. |
| 4:35
| Memorial day weekend seems like a big time for RV sales. All you need to do is take the RV to a car wash and get all that smoke stain off of there. |
| 4:37
| Tyrone actually knows the Bolingbrook area very well, he grew up in the projects out there. Buzz didn't even know they had projects in Bolingbrook. Tyrone grew up in the International Village which was one of the first projects in the suburbs. All it did was move the gangs out to the 'burbs though. |
| 4:38
| Tyrone was talking to Steve and he might be looking for an RV for the shows with The Nadas. Steve said they have too many dudes coming back stage with them and they're drunk. |
| 4:39
| If Steve is going to be talk to someone drunk back stage it's gonna be a woman. Otherwise he'll just sit in an RV with his pants undone. |

| 4:57
| Steve is sending that one out to the RV dealership that's on fire. We got some back info from Shadow Traffic about that fire though. |
| 4:58
| The report says that the back-up on I-55 is being caused by a fire in Harvey but that doesn't make any sense because Harvey is really far from there. |
| 4:59
| Steve didn't pre-read the Shadow Report. He's never had any faith in Shadow, they seem like a bunch of stooges. How can you be that clueless? |
| 5:00
| Shadow saw their was a fire in Harvey and then saw there was a traffic back-up on I-55 and they put them together. |
| 5:01
| Steve prides himself on knowing the Chicagoland area very well so had he pre-read the traffic he would have caught it. Still though it's Shadow's fault. |
| 5:02
| Steve is the fail safe here. Brendan doesn't own a car so he doesn't know anything and Mary doesn't know anything below Madison. She thinks all the expressways are 94. |
| 5:03
| Actually Mary doesn't know anything below Ohio except the Prudential Building. That's how they think up on the North Shore. That's where Buzz should be, up in stately Kilman manor. Instead he's living in the city, just a stone's throw away from Studs Terkel. |
| 5:04
| Buzz's claims that he regularly sees Studs waiting at the bus stop seem apocryphal. He probably saw him once and that's it. |
| 5:05
| Steve is watching the RV dealership fire on CLTV trying to pick out which one he's going to buy. This could be the weekend he finally gets into an RV. |
| 5:12
| Steve wants to know what kind of world we're living in where there's a jet company sponsoring the show and he and Buzz don't have free jet rides. |
| 5:13
| Forget about Buzz actually, why doesn't Steve have free jet rides? |

| Yesterday Steve complained that David was leaving out "another episode of" in order to maintain his 150 word count so today he has AOE in there and a smiley face. Does the smiley count as a word? |
| 5:16
| Today's live read is about a radio general sales manager named Gabe. That might be a reference to the new general sales manager we have here named Gabe. |
| 5:17
| Drew is very concerned about what Gabe's title is because he wants everyone to know he doesn't answer to him. Steve accidentally called Gabe the general manager but Drew was quick to correct him. |
| 5:18
| One thing David could do to get under that 150 word count is remove a few references to his own name. |
| 5:19
| Steve is going to take one more break before the headlines. He really thought Buzz already did them. Buzz has some good headlines coming up though and some great sound. |
| 5:20
| Steve is very excited based on that tout alone. |
| 5:25
| Live read: Gierczyk Properties |
| 5:26
| This is the perfect weekend to head up to New Buffalo and get yourself hooked up with a property. Steve doesn't know why he said "property" like Sammy Davis Jr. It's probably because he realized halfway through that people don't usually impulse buy houses. |
| 5:27
| Headlines with Buzz |
| 5:28
| President Bush held a press conference today and once again insisted we're better off now that Saddam Hussein is gone. |
| 5:29
| New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine is being featured in a series of PSAs about seatbelt safety. Steve loves when the governor can keep it real like that. |
| 5:30
| Earlier in the week we learned that Viagra prevents jet lag in hamsters, now we learn that it could get rid of heart worms in dogs. Viagra might prevent jet lag but it makes for a really uncomfortable walk through the airport after your flight. |
| 5:39
| That drop ties in with Meat Talk as well as Donald Trump being in town this weekend to sell some condos. |
| 5:40
| Apparently he hasn't sold that many condos and he's blaming it on people thinking they're all sold out. |
| 5:41
| Chef Hans is here for Meat Talk. Steve hasn't been ringing the cowbell as loud as he used to because he's getting too old to get it up and also because the podcast people complain about how loud it is. |
| 5:42
| There was some talk about putting a limiter on the podcast feed and Steve was told it was being looked into but that's the last he heard it. |
| 5:43
| Hans brought in his crab salad. Hans says it's made of a Jonah crab and taken from the meat in the leg joint. |
| 5:44
| Is Jonah a type of crab or just the part of the crab? Steve thought it was like a dungeonous crab. |
| 5:45
| Hans also brought in the CD from the Escoffier dinner. What's on there? Is it the entire thing? Is Steve's speech on there? |
| 5:46
| Hans also got a phone call from Jerry from Weber Grill and they sold 200 copies of their Salute to Steak book. |
| 5:47
| All of the sudden Weber is all over this place. Steve's been trying to get them involved for years and now they're advertising and Chef Hans is promoting a cookbook. It's synergy! This is what happens when people just let Steve do his thing. |
| 5:48
| Alright, time for Meat Talk. Steve has a few emails ready to go. |
| 5:49
| The first emailer enjoyed Steve's discussion last week about tucking your napkin into your shirt collar. |
| 5:50
| If you're sitting in first class on American they have napkins with a button hole for just that purpose. Steve wants to start doing that everywhere he eats but he's afraid if he's the first to do it he'll be subject to ridicule. |
| 5:51
| Hans did it on Tuesday when he was at Carlucci's near O'Hare. He was at a concert with 10 or 12 people and he was the only one to do it, even though everyone else knew that was the old way to do it. |
| 5:52
| The emailer was at Bandera over the weekend and they have napkins with a button hole in them. |
| 5:53
| The best part about the napkin in the collar is you get to see everything that would have ended up on your shirt. |
| 5:54
| Hans should order some napkins with button holes for S & W. The button hole is key, that allows you to tuck your napkin in your shirt collar. |
| 5:55
| The next emailer is looking for some good steaks to grill up for her husband's first father's day. He's a filet lover and a Steve Dahl lover but not in that way. The woman's husband has since changed his stance on filets because of Steve's belief that it's a lady's cut. |
| 5:56
| Steve approves of the bone-in filet, as served by Chef Hans at Smith & Wollensky. |
| 5:57
| Also, Steve figured out what the Saratoga ribeye was. It's just a bone-in. |
| 5:58
| Hans recommends getting steaks by mail-order. Prime beef is getting very expensive and it's going to be even more expensive. |
| 5:59
| Beef prices are rising because the corn that we're supposed to feed them is being used to fuel! Steve doesn't care about the future, just give him another 50 years or so on this planet. |
| 6:00
| That's a good tip for getting a bone-in filet though. All those mail-order places come with instructions for how to cook the meat too. |
| 6:08
| Steve accidentally started the Cheeseburger in Paradise music right in the middle of the drop. He has no idea how that happened. |
| 6:09
| Steve wants to hear it again, it was a good Sopranos drop. The finale is really shaping up to be good. Steve is still having trouble shaking Christopher killing Tim Daly. |
| 6:10
| Live read: Cheeseburger in Paradise |
| 6:11
| Buzz totally stepped on Steve hitting the post on the chorus refrain. Isn't he a musician? Doesn't he have a feel for that stuff? |
| 6:12
| The Cheeseburger in Paradise people are working on a way to actually come down here and prepare burgers in the building. |
| 6:13
| Live read: Chicagoland Speedway |
| 6:14
| Steve wasn't going to switch on the echo effect unless Buzz thinks he should. It is funny. It's also funny that one of the presets is called "sissy". At one time Steve thought the sissy setting would be perfect for Ben Gay. |
| 6:21
| How did Donald Trump weigh in on the Rosie O'Donnell/Elizabeth Hasselbeck thing? Pete cut the drop off before it actually got to that. |
| 6:22
| Pete just thought it was funny that Alan Krashefsky called her Elizabeth Hasselhoff. Pete seems a little irritated with Steve right now. |
| 6:23
| Steve thought he said Elizabeth was right. Buzz heard him say she was the dumbest person on TV. Pete needs to turn that TV down a little bit, it makes everyone crazy. It's like being with your grandparents and they're watching their programs with the volume cranked all the way up. |
| 6:24
| Pete would like to just play the tape and figure out what he said. Steve feels like he's on Pete's show now. |
| 6:25
| So Trump said Elizabeth was right in calling him obnoxious. He's in town selling condos probably because everyone backed out of their contracts after he changed the pricing structure. How could these people not have lawyers to go through those contracts. |
| 6:26
| Steve has some sports and he's actually ready with audio. He was holding his script upside-down though. |
| 6:27
| The Cubs are at Petco Park tonight looking to avoid a three-game sweep by the Padres. Who's your padre? |
| 6:28
| Kerry Wood's rehab program began on Monday. Steve's assuming they mean his arm. Because he took a month off it could be almost 2 months before he can even begin a stint in the minors. |
| 6:29
| Ozzie Guillen says he is not looking forward to the next stage of the Crosstown Classic because of all the hype surrounding it. |
| 6:30
| Ozzie does not like playing at Wrigley. That's why the whole Mike North thing started, he's obstinate. He wanted to start that other kid at catcher because he didn't want to give anyone the satisfaction of starting AJ. He's obstinate but Steve likes him. |
| 6:39
| John Paxson was on Chicago Tribune Live today talking about the Bulls draft. We stole it just like we said we would if there was anything good. |

| 6:41
| The House has approved almost $1 billion to fund the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Why? |

| President Bush made sure to point out today that the new immigration bill does not include amnesty. People have to come up with five grand if they want to stay in the country. How are they going to do that? |

| Is Buzz interested in loan sharking to Mexicans? That's probably not a good idea but Steve is getting caught up in The Sopranos. Really he just wants a clubhouse where women strip laconically. |
| 6:44
| It's weird how much attention soldiers get if they're kidnapped in Iraq. Men and women are being killed everyday over there. |
| 6:45
| The murder rate in New Orleans is now 3 times what it was at this time last year. Steve can't wait to get down there. |
| 6:46
| At the current rate people are being murdered once every three days. Steve still likes his odds. |
| 6:48
| It was 30 years ago tomorrow that Star Wars first opened in movie theaters. Is Buzz wearing his Darth Vader costume to work? Steve's going to come as Chewbacca. It's just exciting how everyone gets behind it, from Jimmy Mac to Drew. Drew looks like Yoda, he's not trying to look like him. |
| 6:57
| There's some trouble going on between the Matt Dahl Show and the Stan and Terry Show. Buzz hates trouble! So does Steve, he's a peacemaker. |
| 6:58
| Stan and Terry were amassing a large number of life-size cardboard cut-outs of celebrities. |
| 6:59
| Brendan just jumped right in on the cross talk. There was ample silence but Mr. Joe Cool Matt was sitting back deciding if he should talk to his dad. |
| 7:00
| At one point there were only three cardboard cut-outs in the studio but then the numbers started increasing. |
| 7:01
| Matt and Brendan decided to take action, chopping the head off the Katarina Witt cut-out and then sending a photo of it to Stan. |
| 7:02
| Steve detected a little tension from Stan today during the cross talk. He told him about that video he sent him of Petey Green and Stan replied that he hadn't had a chance to check his email because yesterday was very busy. |
| 7:03
| Matt and Brendan thought it was all part of some good-natured hijinks but Stan must have not seen it that way because they didn't talk about it today. |
| 7:04
| Steve can see them being mad if it was their studio but they share it with Matt and Brendan and Garry. |
| 7:05
| As it turns out that particular cut-out was Stan's favorite one because it was autographed. He seemed a lot madder than normal. He's always mad, probably because he realized getting into radio was a mistake and he can't tell his wife he was wrong. |
| 7:06
| Matt and Brendan should call in tomorrow and apologize and tell Stan they didn't mean to make him mad. That's one of those fake apologies like "I'm sorry if anyone was offended by my remarks." Sound perfect. |
