What defines beauty? Is it the way the moonlight strikes upon an entire pig roasting on an open flame, or perhaps its the pride a local baker-man/baker-women puts into each in every macaroon. Here at MITM we find beauty in the most basic of life's many nuances: the extra jar of mayo found deep within the pantry, the way the grease so gently glistens on a slice of pizza pie, and of course the line at your favorite buffet empty of all other patrons, waiting really. patiently, like it was all made just for you. Enjoy the feast that is life, and of course, go bears too.
Are you sitting down? Good. Alright, so... Imagine, if you would... No, no, no... Pretend! Yea pretend if you can... a place. No! Better yet: a World. NO! I'm sorry. Pretend: A Universe! Ok? Yea? Yes. A Universe. Now, in this "Universe" we see... NO, we OPEN on a man... well he's not really a man as he's...well I'll get into that later... RIGHT NOW We open on the universe. YES! We see it all, well... the viewer sees it all. You with me? So...

I live it. I breath it. I sleep with it. And in some ways I eat it. I consume sports at all moments of my life. During every waking fucking hour, sports are there. I welcome sports into every aspect of my life, from the mundane to the very intimate, sports will always have a seat at the table. Sports have always been there for me, and I will always be there for sports, even as it drives those who love me most away. Sports, I giveith thee my heart. Do what you will with it.

There was a time I could look in the mirror and smile, proud of my body, proud of my soul. I felt whole, pure, unique... dare I even say... special. But those days are gone. Whisked away on a breeze like the dandelion wishes of yesteryear. Nowadays the mirror is nothing more than an acquaintance in passing. We are cordial like good neighbors should be, we acknowledge each-others presence, exchanging glances and half smiles, but the relationship is only as deep as a spring puddle after a sun shower.
Its a big city, (huge really). One of the largest on the continent, (heck maybe even the world). Its a city with a beat. A city with meat? A city you can't forget... Yeah one that really sticks with ya. Ya dig? Ya pig...

You know it can be tough sometimes. The constant bustle and go-go-go. Its hard. Just when you think you caught up, finally, something else seems to pop up out of no where. "Come on!" Is what I say. "Really...?" That's something else I tend to say. But.... Nevertheless, I lay down. I abide. I'm there. Here at your beck and call. Here to entertain. To serve. To make life more comfortable and enjoyable for you.... But what about me?

Featuring those horrible hacks Mildew Mike and Crusty Chuck. It's a show surely only the brave can endure wile the weak will no doubt weep and whine as it's lasting haunt will haunt them for eternity, never more, never more...
A wise man once said: "Buy a pumpkin, be happy for a day, plant a pumpkin, be happy for a life time". I never really understood that phrase. For how would planting a pumpkin, an annual vegetable at that, guarantee one a lifetime of bliss? Or how some would claim buying a pumpkin provides more than simply one day of joy, in fact can bring about weeks of laughter and good tidings to all who encounter its glow. Its these questions that spark debate, ignite friendly conversation and breed intellectual discussion. Go Bears.
So... its that time of year once again folks, when you all get to put your lives on hold for a beat, listen in to some strange voices beg you for money, berate you really, with the end goal that you'll hopefully pony up some coin to support your local listener supported radio station. However, here at WVBI "Where Listeners Come First..." we have seen a dramatic down tick in annual revenue. Its true. This is none the more evident than in our flag shit show Monsters in the Morning where listener support has dramatically declined. Needless to say, we can barely pay the water bill. And we use a lot of water here. There's a lot of big thirsty guys and gals who love that chi-town tap, and well, they are in risk of not having that thirst quenched. So give us a listen, open your hearts and hopefully your wallet will follow. We apologize.
It's fall, or as the ancient ones used to call it "autumn". But we all know what time of the year it really is: Game Time? You bet! Join your pals Mike and Charley as they chew up and spit out nothing but the sweet stuff. You know what I'm talking about. If its Chicago Sports News the Monsters have you covered. So tune in and turn on to the only podcast we know of currently devoted entirely to sports...and big cat.
Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright through all those lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely nights?
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you pick up that telephone, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, how you feelin'?
Are you still the same, don't you realize the things we did
We did were all for real, not a dream
I just can't believe they've all faded out
Of view, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
Blue days, black nights
I look into the sky (the love you need ain't gonna see you through)
And I wonder why (the little things you planned ain't comin' true)
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Okay, so no one's answering
Well, can't you just let it ring a little longer
Longer, longer oh, I'll just sit tight
Through shadows of the night
Let it ring forever more, oh
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang
I look into the sky (the love you need ain't gonna see you through)
And I wonder why (the little things you planned ain't comin' true)
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight

Football is a game of numbers, its as simple as that. So here at MITM, we strive to break down those numbers into a more palpable and easy to swallow nugget so even the most novice of fans can enjoy the intricacies of this game we hold so dear. From stats to scores, PATs and FGs, two minute warnings and time outs, we take it all apart so you don't have to. Enjoy the crunch.
