Get the Vaccine
If you're anything like me, you are starting to get very ticked off at the unvaccinated among us. If so, please read this article. It will make you feel better. At least it will make you feel like you aren't alone. If you can't handle bad language don't read it. The title gives you an idea of the word that is most often used in the piece: Oh My Fucking God, Get the Fucking Vaccine Already, You Fucking Fucks.

Rick on WGN
Had a lot of fun on WGN with @Landeckerjohn last night, discussing the worst Cubs teams of all-time. It's here if you'd like to listen to it. https://t.co/zBa42CqRZN

The latest issue of Illinois Entertainer is out and includes my interview with former WLS jock Kris Erik Stevens. A fun journey down memory lane. https://t.co/sOKMqdDQ4j

Reporter is Accosted
All part of the asshole-ification of America that our former president have so thoughtfully gifted us...
Things got very hairy for NBC News reporter Shaquille Brewster during a live Hurricane Ida report from Gulfport, MS.

From Rolling Stone Magazine comes this great news...
Jon Stewart is set to return to television this September with The Problem With Jon Stewart, the former Daily Show host’s long-awaited Apple TV+ series that was first announced in October 2020.
The streaming service said the Stewart-hosted weekly current affairs program “is a multiple-season, single-issue series, taking a deep-dive on the most important topics that are currently part of the national conversation. Stewart will be in discussion with the people who are impacted by the issue — as well as those who have a hand in creating the impact. Together, they will discuss tangible steps that can lead to a solutionary path forward.”
On Thursday, September 30th, the same day that The Problem With Jon Stewart premieres on Apple TV+, the series will also launch an official companion podcast that features additional analysis, interviews, facts and, “yes, lots of jokes.” New podcasts will be released every week alongside each Apple+ episodes of The Problem.

Paul Banks at Fados
I joined Paul Banks yesterday at Fado's. He was there selling his Eckhartz Press book "Transatlantic Passage" while the Manchester United game was on. Fado's is the site of the Man United Fan Club in Chicago, and they were loud and enthusiastic, despite Man U's pathetic performance. Thanks to everyone who came out and bought Paul's book.
KiKi
Born on this day in 1898, KiKi (prounced with long i sound) Cuyler was part of Cubs '29 and '32 pennant winning teams. A HOFer, but his teammates thought he was a bit of a fancy lad because he put suntan powder on his face. Lifetime .325 hitter for Cubs #everyCubever #hesinthere pic.twitter.com/w78n37m5Y4
