| 2:02
| Is Steve correct in understanding that Stan had that Seven Boggs woman up here trying to act like they were just friends. Not that they aren't just friends but Stan is still rolling that game. |
| 2:03
| Didn't Stan get in trouble for taking her to a Sox game? Terry recalls there was some "splainin' to do. Didn't Bally's go out of business? If Stan's only going to give one-word answers we can end the cross talk right now. |
| 2:04
| Seven is Bally's spokesperson on their TV ads and in print, both in English and Spanish. |
| 2:05
| Why does she like Stan? He's not likable in the least bit and Steve says that as a friend. Stan's a total pain in the ass. |
| 2:06
| Stan tried to tell Terry that Seven likes him because he's a people person. Stan's pulling the same Fake Eunuch deal he pulled with Saika back in the day. |
| 2:07
| Stan can be that guy until he doesn't want to be that guy any more. And then the police will come. |
| 2:08
| Steve is looking for a new trainer but Seven is based out of Miami. That's fine with Steve, he has a place down there and he loves to fly. |
| 2:09
| Just out of curiosity what's in it for Stan here? Steve knows what's in it for Stan with L-Woods and Big Bowl but what's his affiliation with Bally's? |
| 2:10
| Stan thinks if this thing on the radio goes sideways he could be a personal trainer at Bally's. Stan would make a horrible personal trainer, he'd be like a gym teacher. |
| 2:11
| After all, Stan is the guy who makes his son make his bed on vacation. Steve would rather have Terry as his trainer. |
| 2:19
| Steve wishes he'd known Stan's friend Seven was coming in today, he could have used a trainer. |
| 2:20
| Steve did not attempt to workout today and his trainer recently broke up with him. Steve was 20 minutes late to a meeting and apparently he didn't apologize properly. |
| 2:21
| Once Steve arrived he did abruptly canceled the rest of the session because he didn't want to hear about it any more. He did show up for the following session and thought everything was fine but his trainer was still mad. |
| 2:22
| Steve had some meetings today but he would have moved things around if he'd known Seven was going to be here. Buzz suggests that Steve work up an isometric routine while in the meetings. |
| 2:23
| Lately the meetings Steve has had are taking up all his brain power. He is available after the show for a workout but Stan probably won't share Seven with him. He won't even share her with Terry and there's a guy who could use a workout. |
| 2:24
| The last time we went through all of this Steve tried to find a picture of her but he didn't know where to look. Maybe if Stan's still here he could show Steve a picture. |
| 2:25
| Here's Stan now, not a moment too soon. If you go to Ballys.com she's your tour guide for a virtual tour. Steve doesn't want to go through the process of signing up on their website. |
| 2:26
| Buzz is on Ballys.com and she's right on the front page. Steve needs a session today, can Stan arrange something for him? |
| 2:27
| Seven has a 5:30 flight out of here. Stan asked her to take a later flight but she couldn't do it. There we go, now we're cracking it! She wants to get out of town before something creepy happens. How does Stan know her again? |
| 2:28
| Seven used to come on WGN as a health expert and Stan always watched, with his pants off probably. Then they replaced her and Stan started asking what happened to her. |
| 2:29
| Stan's not saying he got her back on WGN but eventually she came back. So Stan got her back on and now she owes him? How often does he bring that up when she's around, every 10-15 minutes? |
| 2:30
| There's a whole Q & A on Ballys.com with Seven which seems unnecessary. Then Stan got her on his show and they got along. He took her to a Sox game with Steve's tickets. Technically he should have been asked first. |
| 2:31
| Stan is weird enough and freaky enough that just being friends with Seven gets him off. It fills something in his little fantasy bank. Stan's been trying to get Alice Peacock in that bank too but that shrimpy husband of hers follows her everywhere she goes. |
| 2:32
| If Steve's serious about wanting her to train him Stan will give him her number. That's probably not a good idea for anyone. Steve doesn't want her number, she doesn't want to him to have her number and Stan doesn't want him to have her number. |
| 2:33
| She is a good trainer though, everyone Stan has talked to who worked with her spoke highly of her. |
| 2:34
| Stan schedules his entire Monday morning around Seven's appearance on the WGN Morning News. After it's over he knows it's time to wake up Geoffrey. |
| 2:35
| Steve's surprised Geoffrey doesn't wake up from all the noise. |
| 2:40
| Whenever we talk to Stan about Seven it sort of leads nowhere. It's like a dog chasing it's tail. Steve can never figure out what's behind the friendship but during the break Stan told a funny story and it made sense. |
| 2:41
| On the air Stan just goes with them being friends, he doesn't even get lascivious about it. It's sort of a comedic dead-end. |
| 2:42
| Stan and Terry were out to lunch with Seven and some people from Bally's. There was some guy who was begging for change on Michigan Avenue who forgot he was crippled and got up to walk after her. Either that or she performed a miracle. |
| 2:43
| Then Stan went into her tight jeans and made hand gestures indicating her breasts. Buzz forgot none of that was on the air but it should have been. Steve's not going to violate the guy code with him. |
| 2:44
| Stan did admit to some inappropriate behavior at home though. |

| 2:48
| Time for a mailbag. The first emailer has seen and read reports that implanting chips in your dogs causes cancer. That came up because of the whole Ellen DeGeneres thing. |
| 2:49
| Steve has subsequently read that the hairdresser's kids already had a dog. Ellen is quite upset about it though, she's canceled tapings for her show. |
| 2:50
| Can Steve and Buzz do something like that? Drew would probably require actual tears. |
| 2:51
| Buzz is wondering how someone allows these adoption agency people to get into their house and take the dog away in the first place. He'd have a shotgun in their face in no time. |
| 2:52
| Buzz has really become a gun-totting crazy hasn't he? Does he want to go to Bass Pro Shop or something? |
| 2:53
| Steve's dog Chamois got lost and ended up at a shelter. The dog was very old and they'd already spent a lot of money keeping it alive but the shelter wouldn't give the dog back unless they paid $300 to have a chip put in. Then Steve had to be lectured by the woman at the shelter. |
| 2:54
| This might also get in the way of Buzz's chips-in-children idea too. Steve doesn't want to look at the whole article he was sent but it seems legit. At the very least the chips are questionable. |
| 2:55
| In addition to a chip Buzz wants a microphone so he can monitor Piper's conversations. He says that no but he doesn't really want that does he? He'll be like George C. Scott in that movie where his daughter becomes a porno star. "TURN IT OFF!!!!!" |
| 2:56
| This probably doesn't get a lot of attention because it's just animals. And yet some adoption group comes and takes the dog away from Ellen's hairdresser or they make Steve get one of the chips |
| 2:57
| Steve's going to leave the mailbag open but he has to take a break first. Also Ed Farmer is stopping by. |
| 3:04
| How long did this little girl have the dog anyway? She has another dog anyway. |
| 3:05
| During the break Steve and Buzz used the same bathroom which was quite a shock to Buzz. |
| 3:06
| Steve noticed that Buzz made a move towards the stall area as soon as he came in. Buzz doesn't want to get stuck at the stall talking to some jamoke. |
| 3:07
| As Buzz no doubt noticed, Steve got caught talking to some jamoke. Ed Farmer is in the Green Room so Steve used the regular bathroom. Plus if Steve went in there he'd still be talking to Ed now. |
| 3:08
| As Steve was coming out he ran into Bonnie from Stan and Terry's show who was incredulous that he was using the regular bathroom, what with the staph infections and all. |

| 3:10
| Steve has two more emails to get to and then we'll get Ed Farmer in here. Steve doesn't have any outrage emails today, lately he's been deleting them. |
| 3:11
| At this time of the year people really start to snap. Steve can't get involved in all the in-depth, complicated hate letters. |
| 3:12
| Steve blames Buzz for a three-part email he got about the whole Larry Craig thing. Actually he doesn't really blame Buzz. |
| 3:13
| The guy was criticizing Steve for saying it would be funny to watch To Catch a Predator bust pedophiles. But then he said that Steve had lost his edge. So maybe the guy wanted Steve to come down even more in favor of the pedophiles. |
| 3:14
| Eventually it ended with the guy saying Steve had lost a listener. Steve didn't really know what the guy wanted him to do though. He just seemed outraged and all these To Catch a Predator set-ups. |
| 3:15
| In Steve's blog the other day he called To Catch a Predator pervotainment. Sure there was that one guy who killed himself. |
| 3:16
| OK on to the squirrels. Steve mentioned earlier in the week that he has about a bazillion squirrels and rabbits in his backyard. So if you're hungry for squirrel or rabbit, contact Steve. |
| 3:17
| Emailer Tony just put sod in his yard and the squirrels are putting acorns in the middle and then rolling them up. It's like an acorn roll-up. |
| 3:18
| The final email is about Steve being washed. It's been almost two years since Steve went to a spa while down and Florida and much to his surprise and delight he was washed like a circus animal. |
| 3:19
| A lot of guys have emailed Steve with places up here that wash you but they also have the happy endings. Steve doesn't want to deal with that because of who he is, plus no one will believe he wouldn't want one, plus he might actually want one. |
| 3:20
| This emailer found a place in Munster that washes you and walks on your back, no sex was offered and it's only $70. |
| 3:21
| The guy sent Steve a website listing for the place but it doesn't mentioning washing. The guy said they do hand washing though. Steve wants a place with a hose too, plus the bucket and sponge and the woman is in white boots like she's cleaning off a cod trawler. |
| 3:22
| If this place is for real Buzz might be interested in checking it out. Maybe the women there will know a place closer to the city that does the same thing. |
| 3:28
| On Curb Your Enthusiasm last week Larry got his dad a happy ending massage and then he fell in love with the woman. |
| 3:29
| Ed Farmer is here. This town is overrun with USC people because they're playing Notre Dame this weekend. Is that why Ed is here? |
| 3:30
| Buzz has become a Notre Dame fan. He started off hating them but he's been watching them all year and now he knows players by names. Players he shouldn't know either. |
| 3:31
| Ed thinks the phoenix will rise again but probably not this weekend. Although Stanford beat USC. If Jim Harbaugh can beat you then anyone can. |
| 3:32
| Steve imagines that Ed has a pretty good hook-up down in Notre Dame. Jim Scherer from Ditka's restaurant bought Serena Williams tour bus, redid the whole thing and they take it down there. Ed won't drive down, he just got a ticket. He was doing 138 in California on a Sunday morning. |
| 3:33
| Steve's under court supervision as well for speeding out in Whiteside County. |
| 3:34
| There's a new law now about pulling off the road if you see an emergency vehicle. If you're on a 4 lane road you have to pull all the way off the road or aggressively slow down. |
| 3:35
| Being under court supervision makes it really dangerous when you're driving. It's not safe doing the speed limit on most expressways. |
| 3:36
| Ed was driving back from Michigan through Indiana once with his I-Pass. It said he could use the I-Pass in Indiana but the gate didn't go up fast enough and he crashed right through it. |
| 3:37
| If Ed doesn't mind Steve asking, what kind of car was he doing 138 in? Ed was driving a Porsche Carera S which can do up to 200. Ed had more pedal to give. |
| 3:43
| On the phone is Kerry Sayers from Comcast Sportsnet. She hasn't called in in a while. Why are they trying to keep her and Steve apart? |
| 3:44
| Ed Farmer is also on, he's Kerry's next favorite guy after Steve. Is that a distant second? |
| 3:45
| Brian Urlacher practiced with the Bears today which is a good sign. He's the kind of guy who will play unless he can't get out of bed but that's not necessarily a good thing. They can't afford to sit anyone but what good will it do playing guys who are only at 50% |
| 3:46
| Ed's wondering how the defense enjoyed watching tape of last Sunday's game as a group. Have they caught Adrian Peterson yet? |
| 3:47
| Kerry doesn't feel good about everything that happened this week. Lovie called the team out, guys are saying things about how they're playing. None of that is good. |
| 3:48
| The only good news is that people are pointing fingers at themselves and not others. But they still have Brian Westbrook and Donovan McNabb to deal with. |
| 3:49
| Kerry is bumming Steve out here. If he wants to be bummed out he'll ask Ed about the White Sox. |
| 3:50
| A few of the White Sox are going down to Notre Dame with Ed this weekend. Aaron Rowand is also coming. |
| 3:51
| The Trojans had an awful flight to Notre Dame yesterday. Some players thought they were going to die. |
| 3:52
| The other big news is Joe Torre has left the Yankees. Kerry hopes this whole thing will haunt the Yankees for years. |
| 3:53
| Joe Torre told reporters that the Yankees didn't ask him what it would take to keep him but he offered that information. Ed thinks they can still patch this whole thing up. |
| 3:54
| Kerry's sort of going off on tangents here today. It's hard not to talking to Ed Farmer though. |
| 3:55
| Kerry doesn't think the Bulls are going to get Kobe so people should stop talking about it. Bringing Kobe Bryant to the Bulls would go against everything John Paxson has been preaching for years. |
| 3:56
| Steve likes hearing Kerry get all mad like this. Is there anything else Steve can say to make her mad? How about A-Rod. |
| 3:57
| Kerry doesn't think A-Rod is coming to the Sox either but that would happen before Kobe comes to the Bulls. |
| 3:58
| Is there anything that's making Kerry happy? How about college football? Kerry's a Michigan alum so she'll be keeping her eye on that game. They've been disappointing her all season though. |
| 3:59
| Kerry played rugby at Michigan which is hot. Kerry doesn't think it's hot, but it's hot. She said she was a stud, that's hot! |
| 4:00
| Kerry is really glad University of South Florida lost yesterday though. If she had to hear any more about them playing in the National Championship game she was going to puke. It's all just further proof of what a mess the BCS is. |
| 4:01
| Wow! Steve's going to take Kerry out for some fajitas after the show tonight, sounds like she needs it. |
| 4:02
| Ed's wondering how Kerry's ankle is. For a while she was hopping around the clubhouse in a Herman Munster boot. |
| 4:03
| Kerry's boyfriend ran over her foot with a golf cart after he pushed her out of the cart. She had birdied a whole and he boggied it. |
| 4:04
| Steve has to thank Farmio for that, he dialed Kerry up to something special right there. Ed thinks he could have pushed her over the edge. |
| 4:07
| Live read: Broadway in Chicago |
| 4:08
| Ed Farmer is here, he's of course the voice of the Chicago White Sox. Steve would assume they'll still be on The Score next year. |
| 4:09
| Has Steve heard something he's not telling Ed? Steve assumes that wherever the Sox are being broadcast Ed will be there as well. |
| 4:10
| As a season ticket holder Steve got a Jim Thome bobblehead doll . Jim's also going to the Notre Dame game with Ed. His crew is AJ, Jim Thome and Aaron Rowand. Can Ed try to get him back? |
| 4:11
| Steve feels losing Aaron Rowand was a big blow to the team, both on and off the field. |
| 4:12
| Steve's bobblehead came with the arms broken off. Perhaps it's a metaphor for last season. Ed will try to get him a new one. |
| 4:13
| Ed's in town going to the Notre Dame game which will be fun. It'll be a lot more fun if they win tomorrow. |
| 4:14
| Ed is not blaming Charlie Weis' for Notre Dame's problems though. Buzz thinks he benched Jimmy Clausen too early |
| 4:15
| Where did all this Notre Dame stuff come from with Buzz? Steve goes back to the newsroom and he's got video of Evan Sharpley in high school. |
| 4:16
| Steve wouldn't mind seeing USC getting beaten though. Ed can't believe how many people he's seen in USC gear. Everyone was milling outside the Art Institute in USC track suits. |
| 4:17
| Why do people need to dress like that when they come to someone else's town? |
| 4:18
| Ed's plane ride here was different than the plane ride home after the season. After the last game Ed got to take a private jet home. |
| 4:19
| He flew here coach. Steve can't believe he went from private jet to coach. C'mon! He's Farmio! |
| 4:20
| Ed doesn't understand why they tell you to keep your seatbelts buckled for unexpected turbulence. Is there expected turbulence? |
| 4:21
| Steve likes to listen to the pilots on the in-flight radio and they do talk to other pilots and get to different elevations to avoid turbulence so there is expected turbulence. Steve likes to keep his belt buckled anyway, it feels good. |
| 4:22
| Ed will call in when the World Series starts. There might be snow by the time it ends in early November. |
| 4:23
| Ed has the Red Sox over the Rockies in the World Series. We'll see if the Red Sox can overcome the 3-2 deficit. |
| 4:24
| It'll be really interesting if it's snowing in Colorado for the World Series. They could get 4 feet of snow but the Rockies field is heated. Roger Bossard did that field, he's also redoing the Cubs field. Their sod didn't take? |
| 4:25
| The sod was a short-term solution that cost the Cubs $100,000. It only lasted one game. Steve thinks it was all over on one pitch. |
| 4:26
| Ed really thought the Cubs could go a lot further in the playoffs. Steve did too and he was disappointed that they didn't. He has friends who are Cubs fans and he remembers what it felt like when the Sox were went in 2000. It's terrible. |
| 4:27
| You'd almost rather not make the playoffs than get swept in the first round. Of course when you're on the other side of the swept it's great. |
| 4:32
| It's good to see Ed Farmer, he's a funny guy. He's a hardcore dude too but Steve likes it. |
| 4:33
| Headlines with Buzz |
| 4:34
| The Dow took a 370 point dive on the worst market day since August. Isn't the anniversary of Black Friday coming up? |
| 4:35
| The Super Bug continues it's march of terror across the country, this time striking two football players in Naperville. |
| 4:36
| The U.S. will give Mexico $1.5 billion for their war on drugs. C'mon! What are they going to spend the money on? If people want drugs other people are always going to find a way to get them here. Maybe they should focus on figuring out why people want drugs. |
| 4:37
| Amy Winehouse has been busted in Norway for possession of a small amount of marijuana. Does she have to go to rehab? No, no no. |
| 4:38
| Representative Pete Stark is refusing to apologize for saying President Bush is sending soldiers to Iraq to get killed for his amusement. |
| 4:39
| The FBI has raided a warehouse belonging to David Copperfield in connection with a rape allegation. When Steve first saw this article he thought it said "whorehouse". He had no idea Copperfield had a whorehouse. |
| 4:40
| From the celebrity bureau comes word that Britney Spears, surrounded by photographers, ran over a photographers foot. Steve doesn't think that's her fault. It's the same thing that happened when she hit that car in the parking lot. |
| 4:41
| And from our science bureau, something that Buzz is very excited about. Oxford Scientists have discovered proof of parallel universes. The theory of parallel universes could help explain mysteries of quantum mechanics. |
| 4:42
| In the original theory posed by physicist Hugh Everett every time a new physical possibility is explored, the universe splits. So a man in one universe could narrowly escape a car accident while an exact copy of that man in another universe could die in an accident. |
| 4:43
| Steve's getting a headache from all of this. So right now in an alternate universe there's a guy just like Steve who actually understands what Buzz is talking about? |
| 4:47
| That's that Perez Hilton guy right there. He sounds exactly what Steve thought he'd sound like. Steve just feels bad for Britney. He's sort of like that kid under the blanket but without the histrionics. |
| 4:48
| Britney's just a girl with mediocre talent, Steve just wants to help her out. |
| 4:49
| Steve might start up a celebrity rescue, similar to a pet rescue. Maybe he'd bring Lindsay Lohan to your house, but you couldn't give her to anyone else. |
| 4:50
| Buzz thinks the first thing Britney needs to do is get her abs back to what they used to be. It sounds like Buzz is part of the problem, not part of the solution. |
| 4:51
| A lot of people forget that most of these celebrities have people bugging them around the clock. At every corner there's some paparazzi waiting for you. And now they're actively involved in things. They all caused her to hit that car. |
| 4:52
| Also today is the anniversary of Black Monday. Steve thought it was Black Friday but that's a Steely Dan song. |
| 4:53
| Steve doesn't follow any of the stock market stuff. Every 6 months he meets with his stock advisor and he shows him a nice bar graph or pie chart and he's fine with it. |
| 4:54
| Song: Black Friday, Steely Dan |
| 4:58
| It's time for the Five O'Clock Taco Bell, just a couple of minutes early. Jeff Joniak's coming up at 5:00 so Steve wanted to eat before that. |
| 4:59
| Steve can certainly eat and talk to Jeff and be hilarious but the eating distracts Jeff. |
| 5:07
| Jeff Joniak was on his car phone but Steve requested a landline. Jeff is far too distracted when he's on the car phone, yelling at other motorists, listening to other stations. |
| 5:08
| Jeff went home and he's now calling from the basement phone. Jeff was wondering if we had some problems connecting. When he picked up the hone he heard what he thought was a fax machine sound. |
| 5:09
| Jeff is actually not in the basement, Steve must have just assumed he'd be banished down there. Jeff actually has an empty house. |
| 5:10
| Normally Jeff is in his office which is actually on the first floor of the Joniak Estate. Is it the garage? |
| 5:11
| Jeff fears the empty house will be brief, he's rarely left alone. Jeff's heading out of town tomorrow to head to Philly. |
| 5:12
| The odds on favorite was the Shula's in the hotel but they couldn't get in so Little Z booked them into some place called Spamp's. Shula's and Spamp's?! They might need to have someone else take over food duties. |
| 5:13
| Jeff doesn't want to change midseason plus they've been pretty happy about his choices so far. Steve thinks they should go with more classic restaurants in these cities. How about a Bookbinder's? |
| 5:14
| The team hotel is actually out in the suburbs and with Tom's 20 minute rule they don't have many options. |
| 5:15
| Steve's on the Spamp's website, they have steak and seafood. Everything on the website sounds like it was translated from Ukrainian into English for teaching purposes. |
| 5:16
| They're all booked for a party of 10 even though only 8 people will show up. That's a veteran trick Steve learned from Tom. That way you have more room at the table. |
| 5:17
| Steve feels that if he were on these trips they'd be going to the classic restaurants. Tom might be more amenable to breaking the 20 mile rule too. Steve would have a bus or something. |
| 5:18
| So the Bears are in Philly this weekend. Brian Urlacher practiced today which can't hurt since he can't see to stay in his gaps. No one on the team is in their gaps. |
| 5:19
| Jeff feels a little better about most of the Bears problems because they're correctable. |
| 5:20
| Tom and Jeff took a little grief in the paper this week for the delayed call on that final field goal. Would Jeff like to clear the air on this? Or is he worried the wife is going to come home and catch them? |
| 5:21
| This is from Ed Sherman in the Tribune. He said that if you'd listened to WBBM-AM on Sunday, for a split second you would have thought the Vikings missed the field goal. |
| 5:22
| The delayed reaction was the referees, it always is. At Soldier Field, and in most stadiums, there's no way to be sure a field goal is good unless you look at the officials or the TV in the booth which is on delay. |
| 5:23
| Why does Ed Sherman have to take 2 seconds from the 6 or 7 hours that Tom and Jeff broadcasted on Sunday and point it out? |
| 5:24
| We go now to the tape of he final field goal of the game. |
| 5:25
| Another interesting angle to that kick is that someone grabbed Israel Idonije and yanked him down. He's blocked 4 already this year. |
| 5:26
| If Steve was Jeff he'd be really irritated that Ed Sherman accused him of blowing the call. Is a Tom Thayer looking for an Ed Sherman now? |
| 5:27
| Jeff thought Hester's punt return on Sunday was his best one yet. It highlighted all of the things he does on a return. |
| 5:28
| Devin is one kickoff return short of tying Deion Sanders to become 4th all-time in the NFL. |
| 5:29
| Nathan Vasher is the only guy who probably won't play on Sunday. |
| 5:30
| Jeff hung up but Buzz wanted to add something that just came in. Philadelphia was voted the city with the least attractive people in the country. |
| 5:31
| Maybe we should get Jeff back on the line, he might want to lead off the pre-game with that. |
| 5:37
| Steve thinks that on the Devin Hester offensive touchdown, Tom Thayer was actually doing a Jeff Joniak impersonation, not squealing like a girl. |
| 5:38
| Steve would like to enjoy that again if we could. |
| 5:39
| That's not genuinely squealing, it was more of an homage to Jeff's touchdown call. |
| 5:40
| The best part of that, or maybe the worst part, was that so many people left before that happened. They were all out in the parking lot waiting for the shuttle bus. |
| 5:41
| Buzz can see leaving when the Bears were down by two touchdowns but obviously there was enough time left to tie it up. |
| 5:42
| Steve is watching Chicago Tribune Live with Kerry Sayers right now. He said he would but she didn't believe him. |
| 5:43
| They're not showing Kerry now, they're showing highlights from the Vikings game. And now it's the Chargers game. Show Kerry! Show her! |
| 5:44
| They must really think the viewers are stupid at Comcast. All they do is show highlights and play rock music. |
| 5:45
| OK Buzz, stop looking at Jerry Azumah. He is a very handsome man. Remember when Kerry was so angry and feisty earlier today? That was hot. |
| 5:46
| Live read: Big Bowl |
| 5:50
| Steve hasn't given up on the Bears but he's starting to get a little anxious. It's the bad kind of anxious too. |
| 5:51
| Steve should be able to settle into a definitive attitude by Sunday. He thinks they'll win though but he said that about last Sunday. They almost won on Sunday. |
| 5:52
| Steve puts a lot of stock in the Super Bowl hangover though. That's quite a roller coaster to go on and then lose the game. It's a big deal when you lose, Steve was there. |
| 5:53
| Steve was quite anxious on Sunday, he only had one bowl of Monsters of the Midway chili. Steve's getting his chili off the nacho bar so he'd like to once again recommend black olives in the chili. |
| 5:54
| Normally Steve has a second bowl right after the first bowl. You really need that second bowl. Whenever Buzz's daughter asks for a cookie he says she can have two, because he knows once she finishes that first one she'll want another. |
| 5:55
| Normally Steve likes to do things in threes but 2 bowls of chili seems like more than enough. |

| That was a drop from Buzz's new favorite show, 30 Rock. He's only seen one episode but he's hooked. |

| FBI agents raided Copperfield's Vegas warehouse and found $2 million in cash. The warehouse is used as a rehearsal space and also has an apartment on the upper level. That's Steve's clubhouse and it has $2 million in cash in it! |
| 6:09
| Steve never imagined his clubhouse having that much cash or 80,000 pieces of magic memorabilia. He does have a Jim Thome bobblehead with the arm broken off. It was sent to him like that, from the White Sox, because he's a season ticket holder. |

| The Bulls have a preseason game against the Raptors tonight in Toronto. We do not have that game, there's some football game though. Steve's not sure what game it is but we have a hard end which Buzz always enjoys. |
| 6:27
| Buzz enjoys the definitive nature of the hard end. Steve does too but he'd like it better if all the clocks in the studio were synced-up properly. |
| 6:28
| There are three clocks in the studio and they all have different times on them. The one on the wall is the furthest off although Steve always assumed it was the atomic clock or something. |
| 6:29
| Steve actually has 5 clocks to contend with in the studio. It Steve pooches the end of the show he has to take that home with him for the whole weekend. Buzz will be in the cab by the time the whole thing goes down. |

| 6:32
| You can trademark it for certain things, like goods and services. Radio stations might not even trademark it or they could trademark it for broadcast. Buzz has been hearing the phrase "Rocktober" for years |
| 6:33
| Buzz could probably trademark "Rocktober" for broadcast services. So he could do Buzz Kilman's Rocktober, as heard on 400 stations and Armed Forces radio. |
| 6:34

| 6:43
| Tonight will be a multimedia Pizza Tragedies. Steve has a piece of paper with a story on it, then a story from a website and then a caller. Steve wouldn't be surprised if we win a Marconi Award for the segment. |
| 6:44
| Paris Hilton has dumped her pizza delivery boy boyfriend because he's too shy. Hilton met the Swede in a night club when he was on holiday. Of course the story would be even better if he delivered a pizza to her house and something else ensued. That's how most pornos start. |
| 6:45
| Paris confirmed the break up as she was partying with Kid Rock in Canada. That Kid Rock is a piece of work, Steve's starting to turn on him. First there was that bitch slap fight with Tommy Lee and then he said something about how Pam Anderson faked a miscarriage. |
| 6:46
| First of all, Steve doesn't care if she faked a miscarriage. Second, how do you fake a miscarriage? Kid Rock is just dirty and not all that talented either. |
| 6:47
| Buzz wants to know what happened to her trip to Rwanda. She found out there was no Hilton Hotel there, only a Hotel Rwanda. |
| 6:53
| Caller George and his wife picked up some pizza on a windy night. He came out of the place with the pizza in his hand and it flew out, rolling down Pulaski like a wheel. |
| 6:54
| George caught up with it and took it him. When they opened the box up it was a ball of cheese and some dough. |
| 6:55
| Finally this is from a pizza delivery website. On a slow night a guy took 3 deliveries out, drove 12 miles and got $8 in tips. |
| 6:59
| So Steve has 5 clocks in the studio and he got panicky when that guy said he had the shortest story to tell. Of course it was the long version. |
| 7:00
| In Steve's panic he looked at the clock on the wall which is the most off of any of his clocks. In about 10 seconds though Steve can stop talking about go home and everyone else can listen to some football game. |
