My guest is a weather legend.
He ruled Twin Cities TV weather for years and was a hit at CBS Chicago as well.
He has invented important weather technologies and owned multiple companies. And he's worried about our future.We talk about the yearly lack of a White Christmas, a giant dust storm in Chicago, and try to get to the bottom of what has Mother Nature's panties in a bunch.
There is no more "normal weather" so I hope you'll enjoy 2 abnormal friends talking it all over here.

Tim Benker has a day job. He owns a corporate carpet cleaning company. And yet he's still funny. Benker started doing stand up. Then he ended up on the radio in places including Houston and Las Vegas. Then he bought a carpet cleaning company. All while he was still doing stand up. My friend Tim Benker joins me to talk about anything but politics... and when I say "anything" in this case I mean that Tim and I will talk about the most expensive divorces, his idea for a new show, his backstage demands, and a whole lot more!

When Scott Pelley politely hammered his ownership over interfering with 60 MINUTES I had multiple emotions.
I always enjoy it when talent stands up to management, and I've had more than my share of experience in that area.
In this case, I also felt anger over what's happening to the news now.
That led to this new episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE. It's a monologue and an attempt to explain why reporting on politicians matters and where you can get fairly reported news.
It's a tale of power, money, and bad choices. Thanks for listening.

A fundamentally decent person, in a fundamentally indecent time. He lived a long life but for the rest of us it wasn't long enough.

He has lived an amazing life so why stop now?
We talk about the mountain of challenges for students and schools in this political mess we're in. We talk about his incredible life story. And I learn something, and what I learn is actually good news.

YOU ARE WORTH IT - YOU CAN BEAT THIS
My older brother, Mickey, will celebrate 22 years since his last drink on 1/1/2026. We both lived through his very bad days and now have the reward of his very good ones.
That makes the great news I got the other day even more special.
Jarrett Burton, a former intern and staff member on my show, has been clean and sober for years. Now he pays it forward everyday through his work at Serenity House.
We had lost touch and I had no idea how bad things had gotten for him before he made the choice to fight for his own life.
His father has written an amazing book about his own deeply difficult upbringing and the blessings of his family. He celebrates his "new" relationship with his son and their very good days together.
Hear Keith Burton and Jarrett here and be inspired. It may help you too.SHOW NOTES

One of the last places you may think of for fixing corruption in politics... is Illinois.
Think again!
In a time where justice is something we can't count on anymore, a bad guy got his in a Chicago courtroom. Mike Madigan was the most powerful politician in Illinois for decades. He used that power to make himself rich.
Those crimes and his history with the best political reporter in America, Rick Pearson, and the great Pat Brady too, on this new episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE!

...of this interview. The last few minutes are as close as it gets to the siloed, narcissistic-sociopathic mind of OJ. It's impossible to explain all that went into getting an interview with OJ SIMPSON in the 90s. He was topic #1 for everyone, everyday, for years.
The most infamous man in the world joined me specifically because of my producer, (Steve) Grunwald, who worked for months to get the deal done. What was the deal? He would do an hour. That's it. No cash. No prizes. He stayed for 2+
And he said things he hadn't said anywhere else. I even asked him if he would date again and he said - the ladies like his "bad boy" image. Stunning.
The new NETFLIX doc, American Manhunt, is very good and very frustrating. This interview is that and even funny as well. Hear some history on this encore episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE
