July 6, 2020Steve’s Car Hole
Steve’s car hole is nice and tidy and has a floor that sparkles. Brendan’s morning starts off a little hazy, and then there’s a troublesome alarm that goes off. Steve treats himself to a daytime shake (not a euphemism). We have a longing look at…

July 2, 2020Hot For Teacher
Today’s show is spearheaded by a thieving member of the Junior Honor Society who learned to cook the candy books at a young age. Janet “One Meal/One And A Half Shrimp” Joliat Dahl, student teacher, joins us to answer email and talk about dining…
-
July 1, 2020Let Us Eat, Satan!
We welcome a pair of old friends back to the show; one from above ground, and the other from below, both sounding fresh and vital and happy to be back. (Steve’s new portable voice machine needs a knob tweak until Satan settles in his comfort zone.) We…

June 30, 2020Walking The Plank
Talk to me Tuesday starts with a gripping drama from the natural world taking place on peaceful (or so we thought) Perch Lake. Speaking of fish, Brendan is on top of the world after discovering the delicious miracle of plank grilled salmon, thanks to…

June 29, 2020Roger Dahl’s Rolex
Dag has set up shop in the UP, where he’s going to attempt to expand his knowledge of tree identification and soil management. In the meantime, he’s dealing with an oddly situated sunburn. Flowermouth is going to attempt to eat Buffalo Chicken…
-
June 26, 2020Bucket Of Dogs
Brendan refuses to believe the concept of Ben Affleck convincingly portraying a basketball coach, but for thirteen minutes he and Steve engage in heated debate about that very subject. It’s the end of a Bucktown era as the Vienna Beef factory will…
-
June 25, 2020Torpedo Juice
Is there a worse value for money than bottle service? Perhaps bottle service with spiced rum. We like Billy Squire, but he made a regrettable video move in the 80s and it sort of un-SuperManned his career. Was JFK’s PT boat made out of plywood?…
-
June 24, 202025 Years Ago…
Steve’s reached password overload stage and it’s got him a little frazzled. Dag went to Walmart to get his drive thru virus testing done, and resisted the urge to go shopping. Brendan went out for some socially distant quest fundido. He also drove…
-
June 23, 2020Three Technique
Rocking you gently and slowly, we start off the show with a deep dive into the career of Andy Kim, before veering off into the Nordic heritage of The Sandman (Brendan has a punching bag that needs filling). Der Sandmann is the German version. He…
-
June 22, 2020Who Cut The Cheese?
‘Twas a grand Father’s Day all around; complete with family, push-ups and internet providers. Brendan has made the move to Xfinity, and his sonic imprint is as strong as ever. The question remains: will we all be forced to subscribe to Disney+ at some…
-
June 19, 2020Friday Morning Raw
We start off talking towel questions: how are they washed? Are they sharable? In which order to you dry off your body? Len Kasper drops in to share , the new single from his band The 45. Wait a minute, who’s that on lead guitar? Is it our very own…
-
June 18, 2020Pedal Pushers
Steve is becoming increasingly more beloved by his grandchildren. Coupled with his recent late night guitar revelation, you’d think he was feeling pretty good. But there’s some recent rejection he’s still coping with, not to mention a Caddyshack…
-
June 17, 2020Too Sloppy Joe
A reminder to parents: fifth grade is socially the worst time to move your children, though the odds are good you’ll end up with a creative person. Brendan has another brainstorm in the kitchen — this time for the grill — that does not turn out…
-
June 16, 2020Laying Some Bricks
Happy Tuesday from your new brick, tuckpointing and power washing service. If you give us a few minutes to watch some YouTube videos, we’d love to get started on your home projects. Steve has lakefront worries, and Brendan feels it’s time to…
-
June 15, 2020Dumpster For Your Love
We kick off this Monday by airing our frustration and confusion with the House Hunter series. Failing to read the room, some Western Springs teens are calling for justice…for a tennis coach. Steve and Dag are consumed with home repairs and the…
-
June 12, 2020Fix It In Post
Waking up was difficult this morning, but once we all got rolling, things were cool. Brendan is green lighting the latest Dave Chappelle special, while Steve is observing some poorly executed social distancing at his beloved Dairy Queen (Janet rode…
-
June 11, 2020What’s A Karen?
Steve gets caught up on the modern world, finally learning what a “Karen” and a “Vanderpump” are. Steve has never moonwalked. Not even when he was hanging with Murphy in the Morning at Excalibur back in the day. While Steve and Janet are…
-
June 10, 2020Strainin’ Stool
We start off today’s show with so much Elvis Presley material, it’s as though it was sitting blocked up and immovable in the very bowels of our comedy system. We celebrate the King and his Empire, from the cradle to the throne. Steve gets some…
-
June 9, 202027 Cheez-Its
Batten down the hatches and join us as we set sail for the open seas of comedy. Will we ever find our way back, or will we just collide with other vessels? Steve is counting Cheez-Its and chlorine tablets, and reveals that he loads his corn on the cob…
-
June 8, 2020Cereal From Heaven
Steve’s up early and going through his list of chores, which includes going to the bathroom. Everyone managed to get outside and enjoy the weekend, masks and all…especially Brendan, whose goal was to get drunk with Samantha Sklar. Whatever…
-
June 5, 2020Nize Beef Roll!
What does Steve think about, especially while he’s power washing? There’s a Dahl Family Dinner for Mike’s birthday, but changing tables (along with a few cocktails) make for some spirited (It’s a pundemic!) debate. Enzo’s beef roll is a new item…
-
June 4, 2020Under Pressure
Steve has a productive day of power washing, and turns to seasoned power washer Brendan for advice. We place a birthday call to Mike Dahl, causing Steve to wonder where the past 37 years have gone. Janet and Steve try and recall that early morning,…
-
June 3, 2020Doughy Decimal System
Steve’s following his unprecedented weight loss down to the decimal point. Today’s date leads Dag to remind everyone to do a deep dive into the catalog of Bobbie Gentry. Ever see an opening act that blew you away? Brendan reminds us to approach…
-
June 2, 2020New Microwave Technology
We recall the olden days when you could flip on a TV set and watch a baseball game, hopefully while enjoying some mouth-searing Pizza Puffs. We celebrate the innocence of 1989, in all its Zappetited chili dog glory. Check out Sam Kinison eating a…
