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.

Paul Douglas joins me on LIVE FROM MY OFFICE !

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!

The idea is simple.  We are all tired of the constant whine of political parties and politicians so let's take a break with another special episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE called ANYTHING BUT POLITICS!

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.

Expect more conversations like this with my friend Paul Coyte, in addition to the usual episodes of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE.

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.

The Vatican says that Pope Francis died after suffering a stroke and heart failure, but not before he gave one final Easter blessing on the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica.

On this new episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE hear Father Tom Hurley on the life and legacy of Pope Francis.  He also speaks about the present and future of the Church

This new episode features one of my favorite guests. Robert Jones is the current Chancellor of the University of Illinois but is about to leave to become the next President at the University of Washington.

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.
