We are in the thickness of October and chewing are way through this delicious prime rib roast of a month and absolutely savoring every morsel of its fatty, sweet, succulent, complex, flavorful, protein body. What a world we live in that us two gents from the big city are able to rap with you all about the bountiful bounty that is Chicago sports. Lucky is too little a word, yet its hard not to feel that way while mopping up the sweet sporty juices of a tender beef steak with a fresh baguette of data and fandom. Bon Appetite.

When one thinks of the major earth shaking events in history of Chicago football some tend to stick out more than the rest. For instance when Papa Bear George H swapped the traditional dead and decaying turkey carcass for a more usable and less stinky pig skinned bag of wheat, thus changing the physical and emotional relationship players have with the o’l kick’n gizzard. Or when Big Dave Wanstead and his coaching staff installed indoor plumbing in the players wash’n hole, kicking aside the old civil war era tin tubs for shower heads. Fast forward to 2024 and the major investments management has made in this year’s squad and we may just be privy to boring witness to the next BIG thang. Hold onto your hats.

From Paper Plates to Paper Bags, from kids named Cody to kids named Zack, from Pogs to Pigs, Russia to Reptiles, Robin Hood to Robin Williams the 90s sure were a rich decade. So much so it garners yet another revisiting of what really was big in the 90s…

Every once in a while it’s best to go back to bay sacks. You know what I mean… Those warm cozy sacks of hay that sit by the bay waiting to be visited by weary nomads and those astray… For thousands of years bay sacks have been a comforting sight, a welcoming softness consisting of a bright billowing blanket-like sack that yearn for a visit from non other than… you. So dive in, it feels good here :)

I’m sure you no doubt have had your mead fill. Unfortunately theres simply too much information, content, context, history, texture, juicy details, creamy middles, savory crusts, nutty back ends, fruity fronts and mouthwatering mouth feels for this Mead Saga to end. So as they say in the Land of Mead: Let’s make some “pour” decisions!

Mead is a honey wine. It’s made from fermenting honey. Ain’t that something? Some enjoy this drink. So much so that they have free standing buildings dedicated to to celebrating its creation. They also drink it there and talk about how it tastes, its level of dryness, fruitiness, stink, and how the subtle pine notes dance upon the tongue and throat when slowly gathered in the mouth and down the esophagus. What a time to be alive.

The 90s…

Ten years of fun, family, french fries, and freedom…

A decade of TV shows, tap dancing, tag and tang…

521 weeks of Wendys, wishing wells, Walters and wonder…

120 months of memories, muppets, mittens and mint…

3652 days of doorbells, dips, dip shits and dung…

What a time to be alive…?

With so much information out there its hard to compute what’s worth investigating and what to toss in the old trash heap. A good rule of thumb is to do a broad general search online where you will no doubt be inundated with a cornucopia of factoids and expertise first hand accounts that will for sure tickle your underbelly. After a few hours of mindless scrolling, word skimming, and video vomit, your eventually find your fancy. From there the world is your oyster. Dive in, enjoy the jelly and see where your research takes you. Cheers!

Raising and nurturing a dog is said to be the most important job/life event one will ever embark upon in their short journey on this earth. From late night walks to the dog park to get one last sniff of a favorite bush, to early morning piles of feces on the threshold. There truly is no grater joy then dressing your pup in its favorite rain coat and boots and going frocking in the big city. Dog Talk with Sparky and Smokey celebrate this fact, and are here to provide you with years of expertise and know how to make sure your most important companion stays top dog.

Christmas time can bring about a jubilee of emotions. Where some enjoy the scents and sounds of cookies being baked in Nana’s kitchen, other may find the experience difficult and nauseating. While most love standing in long lines, tasting the many tints and textures offered by kraut carts, and sipping on $12 hot cocoas all compliments of the local Christkindlmarket; a small number, in fact a select few, may actually find the event idiotic, a rip off or dare I even say… stupid. And as most love the wonder and magic of Cotton Man’s Annual Sleigh Full of Cheer Christmas Special, others simply skip the episode - the choice is yours. God Bless!

This whole sports watching and analyzing thing can get quite exhausting. Especially when your in-depth investigation and expert commentary are shouted into a vacuum, a cosmic void, a barren tundra, a sunken ship taken over by the sea and its many mysteries, an elderly man’s sterile garage where a mint condition ‘96 Ford Taurus may or may not be parked, an empty gymnasium that smells of farts, a sleepy meadow where you and a lover once walked barefoot and naked in the dewy long grass in search of shade and patch of soft moss to lie down both your bodies and inhibitions. Oh to be young again.

Legend has it that the one known only as “The Keeper” shall inherit the cans. And as it has been foretold The Keeper shall: “Salvage, store, and keep safe” thy bounties. Today, tomorrow, and until thou is called upon to “return they from hence they came”. Until authorized: “thy Keeper shall continue to keep, even as thy spoils spoil, seals become unsealed and what was once liquid turns to hardened stone”. For it is written, it shall be true.

Most doctors agree that your health is very important. Of course you can disagree, however, it’s hard to doubt the very notion when looking at the raw data and examining the fresh numbers that believe it or not you health IS a major factor when determining if your body is in good working order. It can be surprising and a tough pill to swallow and the choice is yours to use such information to benefit a better, cleaner, more active and healthy lifestyle, OR disregard such findings and continue to go on enjoying a lifestyle where all is on the table and your hunger is never deprived from sinking into whatever seems pleasing at that very moment. I say “Live your Bliss” and the rest will follow suit. Cheers.

Mike and Charley are back bringing you all kinds of shit for you to listen to. Put your ear near the speaker and let the crap envelop your concha while leaving a fresh coat of audio feces all over your large bowl shaped helix. Yep it’s a shit show for the ages, with plenty of burning, blasting, loud, and painful tones ready and waiting to be dumped all over your face and or neck. Beware, you’ve been warned.

‘Twas once a time when we had the time to sit. We’d sit on a wooden chair and gaze longingly out our kitchen window. We’d sit on an old bucket and sing in 3 part harmony with our fellow neighbors. Yes, we would sit and stare and stare sit, and sit in shit and shit and sit. It truly was a beautiful era and a time we so desperately lack today. So take a moment today and sit, listen and watch. Heck you just may learn something new, see an exotic bird, or at the very least have a chance to rest your aching back. XOXOXOXO

Feces. For decades scientists have been trying to duplicate the subtle textures, scents, and overall durability of one of the worlds’ most plentiful organic substances. However, such a feat has illuded some of this century’s most brilliant minds, as failure after failure had rendered the process near impossible. That all changed with the development of Synthetic Shit. The worlds first 100% Synthetic fecal matter. The future is now and its currently on sale!
