A couple months ago, I went down and hosted an event for Second City Wrestling in Midlothian...going into it, I was afraid it was going to be lame, BUT..it was FREAKIN FUN!!

And its happening again TONIGHT..Smash from DreX in the Morning is hosting the wrestling event tonight..including guest appearances from Lorna (i.e. Molly Holly from WWE) and Joey from Real World: Hollywood!!!

Here's a video of one of the matches from my visit:

My buddy, Kyle Cease - one of America's FAVORITE comedians - was on my show this afternoon - you've got to check out this video...I haven't seen Kyle in a while, and wasn't sure if I'd missed his birthday..

Kyle will be at the Zanie's downtown all week and weekend..
CLICK HERE for details and showtimes (I'll be there Saturday)

Even if you don't get to see a lot of live comedy, you'll recognize him as the "Slow Clap" dude from Not Another Teen Movie...

Can My Interns Schmooze Onto a Sailboat???
Tuesday was AMAZING in Chicago - and HOT!!! - so my interns decided to live out the dreams of everyone who was stuck at their job (me included), and I asked if they could go try to get on one of the sailboats we can see from the 103-5 KissFM studio window...

So...we shipped them off to Belmont Harbor (which we assumed was the most-perpetratable - is that a word??) and they IMMEDIATELY made their way onto not just a SAILBOAT, but also a speedboat - which we, Chi-town, got to name!!!

Check out the pictures of my interns Kimberly (the one who jumped into Lake Michigan with her clothes on) and Mary Kate (the sensible twin)...AND the newly crowned speedboat "Baby Legs and the Boss" by clicking on the picture below (video coming tomorrow):

Ty's First Odd-Job: Yard Sale
After promising to donate money for every hit I got at Batting Practice at Wrigley Field, I found out I'm REALLY good at baseball...and am gonna have to do odd-jobs to afford the donation I promised to Children's Hospital...

So...I asked my listeners if anyone needed helped with anything around their house, work, whatev...  and $5-10 at a time, we're gonna give a total of $500 to the Children's Hospital NICU Ward!

I got a LOT of odd-job offers - and the first one I made it to was Cynthia's yard sale!  The 103-5 Street Freaks and I went out to help Cynthia this week, as she sold the extras from around her house, and she offered up profits toward the cause! 

It was a blast - hi to Mando, Barbie, Paco, Lil J, Alixa, and Abraham...plus Peter and everyone else in the neighborhood!

If your lawn is getting unruly, or your living room needs a vacuuming, let me know!

My Listeners Get A Celebrity Psychic Reading!!!
On Friday, celebrity psychic Maria Shaw (from the Anna Nicole Show and more) was in-studio to give my listeners FREE, personal, psychic readings...

Many listeners were able to ask their questions on the show, but we took some of the calls off-air, to make sure I get readings for as many of my listeners as possible.

Here are a couple videos of readings we did off-the-mic:

2 readings: Kristy and Melissa have their questions answered

My buddy, Kyle Cease - one of America's FAVORITE comedians - will be on my show this week...I think...I originally thought he was coming LAST Thursday afternoon at 6p (yeah, I ordered food and decorated and even texted him...only to find out it was supposed to be THIS Thursday).  Then I found out I'll be out of town this Thursday, so now we're trying to convince him to drop some other stuff from his schedule and come on my show...Clap if you believe he'll be there...seriously...what can it hurt to clap right now??  

HAHA - you look silly clapping ;c)  But speaking of clapping...

Even if you don't get to see a lot of live comedy, you'll recognize him as the "Slow Clap" dude from Not Another Teen Movie...

Kyle will be at the Zanie's downtown all week and weekend..

Need some encouragement to see someone hilarious...Here's a sample:

And here's some behind-the-scenes in-studio video footage...I haven't seen it, yet..cuz its from the future...

Join Mel and I For a GREAT TIME ;c)
Mel T. from Drex In The Morning and I have teamed up to lead the 103-5 KissFM team in this year’s Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure

Uh...I Don't Think I Can Afford to Be So Good at Baseball...
I got to go to batting practice at Wrigley Field during the Crosstown Classic!!! The prob was that I grew up kickin a soccer ball and never really got into baseball, other than with my friends every once in a while at the park..

So to make things more exciting (and to give me $**t), some friends offered up $100 for every STRIKE I got, and to hold onto my self-esteem, I promised to pitch in $25 per HIT (thinking I might accidentally hit 2 or 3)...but after Chicago had a chance to review the tape, and sent in TONS of opinions, we have determined I got:


8 Hits and 3 Strikes

That means I owe $200, and Tai's Til 4 is pitching in $300 for Children's Hospital's NICU ward...

...the question is..where am I gonna get $200!!???  I am going to have to do odd-jobs to pay-up!  Need help with anything???

Benefit for the Arts and Piven Theatre

I think we all know by now that I'm a huge fan of great causes..and this is one of the BEST!
(Not to mention one of my favorite, and hilarious, actors is hosting)

Entourage's ARI GOLD...well, better known in his hometown Chicago as JEREMY PIVEN was in-town to party with YOU:

Last weekend was the annual benefit for The Piven Theatre Workshop - raising money to support Joyce Piven's (yes..Jeremy's mom) efforts to introduce youth to the arts. As Chicago is facing some really crazy times with violence and tough situations for kids, THIS is a GREAT way to allow young people to express themselves in a postive way, and learn skills that have led some amazing talent to stardom!

If you missed the party, but would like more information on how you can help OR get involved with The Piven Theatre call them at (847) 866–8049.  The Piven Theatre Workshop provides tens of thousands of dollars of needs-based scholarships and is involved in community-outreach programs.

Its Math...I Need Your Help..

I got to go to BP at Wrigley Field last weekend!!! The prob is that I grew up kickin a soccer ball and squeezed in some basketball and football, but never really got into baseball..

So to make things more exciting (and to give me $**t), some friends at the club TAI's TIL 4 in Wrigleyville offered up $100 for every STRIKE I got, and I promised to pitch in $25 per HIT (sorry, I'm poor)...but when we got the video back, I realized I can't tell exactly what the count ended up at...so here's a look..COMMENT and let me know what YOU think?
