NEW MUSIC NOW- St. Vincent

Every night at 9 pm we put a spotlight on what we think could be your next favorite song.  This week we are featuring a true artist. St. Vincent!  This Grammy winning artist’s new album drops on the 14th and we are spinning the first single off of it, called “Pay Your Way In Pain.”  Its dark, dirty, sleek, and retro.  Take a listen and be sure to let us know what you think of the song by texting in to 312101 when we play it tonight at 9.

Today’s Support Chicago Business: URBAN GRILL

Urban Grill at 1132 West Wilson by the Red Line, opened their doors and gave away 70,000 meals for free — 50,000 of them to children experiencing food insecurity — when the pandemic began. Because they haven’t been in business long enough to qualify for pandemic assistance themselves, they need community support. This is the exact reason why Support Chicago exists. Go grab some amazing food and support local businesses that have supported others.

Read all about this amazing place in the ChicagoSun Times.

Should Girl Scouts Be Allowed to Sell Cookies to Dispensaries?

A Girl Scout troop in Michigan recently set up shop outside of a dispensary and sold 1,000 boxes in just six hours. Brilliant business strategy if you ask us. This idea wasn’t loved by everyone, though. Other groups wanted to get in on the munchie-induced fun, but the Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan said no way, insisting there was a “policy” that prevented the Girls from doing such a thing. Spoiler: no such policy exists.

Do you think Girl Scouts should be allowed to sell their cookies outside of a dispensary? Hit us up on Facebook and let us know what you think!

Listen to This Basketball Announcer Trash His Wife On-Air!

Replays in basketball have become a huge issue. They prolong games, they vanquish intensity, and they simply aren’t fun. When this announcer starts ranting and raving about a 4th quarter plagued with replays and monitor checks, we’re on board. Then things take a turn for the vicious as he brings his wife into this. It’s brutal!

Fugitive Captured After Trying to Buy New ‘Call of Duty’

2007 called, they want your headline back. A man in Birmingham, UK escaped from prison in November left his home to go to the store to get the new Call of Duty game. He was stopped by an officer asking why he was traveling during shelter-in-place orders, and shortly after the police were able to figure out that this was a man they were looking for.

Let the Bodies Hit the Floor (at Bath & Body Works!)

Bath & Body Works: the only place in America where a full-fledged fist-fight can break out in front of people who don’t have the wherewithal to yell “World Star!” This is as gnarly of a street fight as we’ve seen in quite some time.

As you can see, haymakers are landed from start to finish. This is a classic Karen Royale. What’s your fight story? Let us know on Facebook exactly what went down and how it happened!

Preacher Tells Women They Need to Stay Attractive for Their Man

Get prepared for your blood to boil. This preacher reminded us of the most important part of the Bible: the horny parts. He pulled a passage from Genesis 69:420 when the Man upstairs said, “let thy man thirst.” He wants women to look like Melania Trump and for them to be proud, trophy wife, because after all, men are visual creatures. The full, insane clip is here.

If you could say anything to his face, what would it be? Let him have it over on our Facebook page.

That time Eddie Vedder snuck in to Wrigley Field

Eddie Vedder, lead singer of the greatest band in the history of ever, and massive Cubs fan did something that each and every one of us have at least thought about while passing the Friendly Confines after having 2 too many pops at our favorite Wrigleyville bar. He snuck in to Wrigley and took batting practice! According to Eddie, he and Theo Epstein got a little hammy’d after the Cubs won the 2016 NLCS and snuck back in to Wrigley in the wee hours of the night to take some batting practice. The best part?  As they sat in the outfield around 4 in the morning, they could still hear people partying on their roofs, celebrating the victory.  HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE????

Read more about what could be the coolest night of all time HERE, and of course make sure you check out the PJ/Cubs documentary “Pearl Jam: Lets Play Two”

Would You Sleep Here?

The cockpit from the Millennium Falcon has been transformed into a hotel pod from hell. Seriously, why are influencers into things that look like they make life more difficult? First the tiny home trend ruined our Explore Page, now this.

Couples That Do THIS Together, Stay Together

You’re probably expecting a link to couples counseling when you opened this article. Maybe you thought it was going to be a step-by-step guide to conflict resolution or a fun, sporty couples workout program. WRONG. Couples that swipe together, stay together.

Would you do this with your partner? Let us know why or why not in our Facebook comments!

Would You Eat This ‘Froot Loops’ Pizza?

Society almost crumbled in the midst of the pineapple on pizza debate. We might have to rebuild from ashes once this story takes off. A restaurant in Iowa has decided to test the bandwidth of our sanity with an interesting looking Fruit Loops pizza.

Would you eat this? Not for any money, not for pride, but because it looks good. We need to hear from you one way or another. Tell us why this pizza is whack or why it’s a snack over on our Facebook page.

This Delivery Driver is Out of Control

We’ve heard a lot of stories about people being pissed off about the way their packages are treated, but this is the first time we’ve seen packages pissed on. A delivery driver in Rhode Island is under investigation for urinating all over someone’s packages. The incident just happened to be picked up on their Ring doorbell.

Do you have a bad delivery driver story? Hit us up on Facebook if you do. It’s bad enough we have to deal with porch pirates. You’d think we could trust our delivery drivers to not pee on our packages, but in 2021 that is a tall task.

Tree Falls On Band in the Middle of Their Set

When the world said said no live music or concerts, the world meant it. While it appears that this was a socially distanced gig outside, it didn’t stop mother nature from interfering with a tree branch of justice. Look at how close this comes to going horribly, horribly wrong.

We’re all so close to being able to go back to enjoying live music. When you return to your first gig, maybe make a mental note to look out for trees, though.
