Hey kids, sit on back and strap yourselves in for yet another roll in the hay with your favorite sports DJ's Maniac Mike and Touchdown Charley! This week we are all new breaking down the Bears most recent draft debacle, shedding light on the Hawks playoff downfall, and providing the most comprehensive Bulls banter one can handle. Plus Bill Stark goes off the deep end, Mike gets personal, TDC has soar feet, and we ask that faithful question once again: "Whaddya Got in that Gym Bag?" Go team go.
The time has come my friends for all your questions to finally be answered: What really happened to TDC? How did he fall into an empty pool? What took so long for his recovery? Why can't Mike stop eating? Where's Big Cat? What's that stench lingering by the water cooler? What's this week's specials at the Dirty Little Stink Pit? Why can't Springfield pass a budget? Why can't Kaner find the empty net? What time is the Bears game? Can the Bulls really be this good? Can Mike please put that hoagie down for a quick minute? Is Charley a demon? Is Stark naked? That's right! Its an all new Monsters in the Morning back and better than ever! Enjoy the ride...
Good new folks, TDC is up and moving.! That's right, I got word earlier today that he is able to walk, eat, and talk to an extent... talking being mostly curse words and lewd comments towards his nurses (saints). However, the odd thing is he still is not making much progress in the bathroom department, instead willingly choosing to not use the washroom and all and opting for the hospital issued adult diapers. But hey progress is progress am I right? I know he would love nothing more than to say hello and were hoping for his return very soon. Until then enjoy this never before aired special episode taped during happier times. Featuring all your favorites: Bill Stark, Where's Big Cat and of course a half in the bag Touchdown Charley. God bless you and God bless this big beautiful city of ours! - Fat Mike
Well, its sad to tell you all this but TDC finally went off the deep end. Literally, he fell into an empty Best Western Pool after a night of binge drinking with the a few of the hotel janitors and cleaning ladies and really hurt himself. Needless to saw he's in bad shape. His breathing is labored, he's very, very weak, and now his swollen legs are beginning to release a very bad odor, making visiting with him impossible. So there's that. At least he's alive. I guess. Well, the good thing is we have a special never before heard episode from the archives to share with you all. Enjoy, and keep looking out for that Big 'Ol Cat. Love Always, Big Mike. xoxoxo
Where's Big Cat? That's the question that has plagued the land for years and still continues to capture the mind and imaginations of millions. Join the monsters as they share some rare and never before heard Where's Big Cat memories as Mike guides you through the vast and ever reaching Big Cat ether. And please if anyone has any information regarding the whereabouts of Touchdown Charley, we ask you to please notify your local authorities whenever you find the time. Bless you...

I'm overweight, I know that now. It took a long time for me to really "say" those words, but I can't tell you how good it feels to finally be "free" enough to speak them out loud without weeping uncontrollably. I have a problem, food. It's been my largest struggle most of my life. I can remember being whooped on Christmas morning by my mother for eating an entire tray of Magic Bars meant for our soon to be arriving guests. Or the time I consumed an entire jar of mayo in my Grandfathers garden and nearly died. But now I finally feel like I can beat this monster, lift this weight and become truly happy again. I can't stop this illness, but I can control it, for I have the power and it is I who is behind the wheel. - Mike.
