The Satanic Temple sculpture on display in Springfield became a topic on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. In the skit, Billy Crystal played the role of God and Dave Freaking Grohl was Satan.
(Original headline: “Police Find Prison Escapee In Hot Tub.” Couldn’t resist the play on words.)
This is the literal meaning of someone being in hot water. An escaped inmate in Ohio was found in the hot tub of a senior living center. Authorities say the 34-year-old woman escaped police custody while being booked on Tuesday. Several hours later, a 911 call came in reporting the woman was in the hot tub with her yellow prison outfit still on. The woman now has felony escape charges tacked on to the initial charge of heroin possession.

If you’ve ever found yourself skipping out on meals in order to save calories for alcohol, you may have been participating in what is being called “drunkorexia.”
Drunkorexia is when someone opts not to eat a meal knowing they will be drinking later. This practice could actually lead to an eating disorder. In a U.K. report, 40 percent of 25-34 year-olds fessed up to skipping meals in order to save calories for alcohol, while an Italian study showed 34 percent of those 18-26 had the same behavior. Since alcoholic beverages can be loaded with sugar and high in calories, this is how some people try to avoid excessive weight gain. For others, it’s a way to get drunker faster… and cheaper.
Instead of “drunkorexic” behavior, dieticians say try changing out heavier drinks for lighter ones, such as vodka with a spritzer. Or, alternate an alcoholic drink with a non-alcoholic drink.

ALFONSO RIBEIRO is suing two video game makers for using his ‘Carlton Dance‘ from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”without his permission. The Carlton first appeared in a 1991 episode called ‘Will’s Christmas Show.’
He’s suing Epic, which makes “Fortnite”, and Take-Two, which does “NBA 2K”. He says both games feature digital versions of his dance.
And he’s not the only one trying to get a piece of the “Fortnight” money.
Brooklyn rapper 2 Milly is suing for the Milly Rock dance he created. And the Backpack Kid, who created flossing, has also filed suit.
GO GET YOURS AL!

We were devastated hearing the news of the passing of Chicago officers Conrad Gary and Eddie Marmolejo. Here’s how you can help their families during this holiday season during this difficult time. –Brian, Ali, and Justin
The Raconteurs confirmed plans to return with a new album in 2019 which will be the first for the band, featuring Jack White, Brendan Benson, Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler in ten years since 2008’s “Consolers Of The Lonely.” Third Man Records tweeted this clip earlier, and now we wait for tomorrow to hear “Sunday Driver” and “Now That You’re Gone” in their entirety.
As a person who has had so many packages stolen off their porch they can’t even send them to their home, I find this video to be of utmost interest.
BUAHAHAHAHA.

Alt rock titans the Strokes are set for big comeback with a global tour in 2019 according to several reports today. The highly influential NYC band has been confirmed to headline the BBK Festival in Bilbao, Spain in July according to a report by Consequence of Sound.
So let the speculation begin as to where the Stokes will land on Chicago’s prime row of musical festivals for the summer of 2019. Lollapalooza? Riot Fest? We don’t know for sure, but it’s fun to imagine shaking your hips to this on park district property to this wonderful band, isn’t it?
Members of the Strokes have remained busy since they last performed in 2017 with singer Julian Casablanca performing with his other group the Voidz, and guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. releasing his fourth solor album along a crushing set at he performed at this month’s Nights We Stole Christmas with 101WKQX. Check out photos from his energetic set here.
Alice in Chains just received their ninth Grammy nomination for their latest album Rainier Fog and announced the forthcoming release of Black Antenna, a 90-minute science-fiction film inspired by the songs on the record. Directed and produced by filmmaker and longtime fan Adam Mason, the movie will roll out over the course of 10 episodes starting in early 2019, with each song correlating to one segment. More from Revolver Mag HERE.
I’m into it.

To be clear, this is not a repeat of last month’s Hancock elevator malfunction — which fell 84 floors and got stuck with six people inside. This is a new nightmare.
According to the Chicago Tribune, fifteen people were trapped on the fourth floor of 819 S. State St. this morning. Ten of them got out by climbing up the hatch and then climbed down a ladder placed in the elevator shaft. The Chicago Fire Department had to break through a wall to get the rest. No word on how long they were trapped.
Not a good few months for elevators in the city of Chicago. But I’m still not taking the stairs. — [eric]
Going on now through December 19th (at 11:59PM), you can dial up a live Christmas carol. 24 hours a day. Sung by college students, possibly running only on insomnia, caffeine, self-doubt — and possibly delicious pizza.
The University of Illinois Dial-A-Carol program has been going on for decades. The idea is to bring a little stress relief during finals week — which in turn brings joy to the world, so to speak. Call 217-332-1882. Request whatever holiday tune you want. Even if they don’t know it, they will look it up and give it a go. And if you request Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas” — you put another notch on the Mariah Meter. They sing that song literally HUNDREDS of times a year. Which just sounds….awful. — [eric]

Matt Damon is a fanatic for Weezer, and they break out into the tired argument of ‘Blue Album and Pinkerton are the only good Weezer albums’. The entire thing ruins a holiday party among friends, and it escalates as Damon and the always energized Leslie Jones plays his antagonist. It’s a very funny sketch in what has already been a great SNL season.
Comedian Stephen Castillo who spent many nights in Chicago, had a hand in writing the sketch.
