    Liam Stanton: Chicago Mayor Race & City Hall Red Tape | The Pat McGann Show Summer Special

    How many signatures does it take to get on the ballot for mayor of Chicago? Turns out it's 12,500, and you're not allowed to collect a single one before July 28th. Liam Stanton, candidate for Mayor of Chicago, joins Pat McGann and Dwayne Kennedy to talk about his campaign, City Hall's finances, and what separates him from a crowded field of career politicians.  Stanton grew up in Rogers Park as the youngest of eight, and his grandfather immigrated from Ireland to clean streetcars before his dad became a Chicago cop. He also opens up about his brother Tom, who runs the Danny Did Foundation and its work on childhood epilepsy. Along the way: a scammer trying to con his wife out of a nominating signature, the parking meter deal nobody's forgiven, a pitch to hold debates over Italian beef, and Friends of the Parks getting called out (again).  FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN WIN $1,000 AT Tiege.com/10years 🎧 New episodes every Thursday — filmed at Tiege Hanley Studios in Chicago.  🔗 Follow The Pat McGann Show: Instagram: @thepatmcgannshow TikTok: @thepatmcgannshow Apple Podcasts & Spotify: The Pat McGann Show 🎤 Co-Host: Dwayne Kennedy Instagram: @dwaynetkennedy 🎤 Guest: Liam Stanton Instagram: @liamstantonchicago 💚 Sponsored by Tiege Hanley — Get 40% off your first box + free gift → tiege.com/pat Interested in sponsoring The Pat McGann Show?

    PAT & KB: Kevin Bozeman drops by for a hang with Pat to talk parenting, hoops, Chicago & more…

    Kevin Bozeman is back on the show for the first time since episode seven, and Pat wastes no time doing the math on what that means for episode 350.  The Chicago native and stand-up comedian catches Pat up on a summer of European travel, a Chicago Vocational School education whose alumni list reads like a Chicago sports hall of fame, and a full-circle sports memory built around an old West Unseld jersey.  They also get into the sportsbook takeover of Sunday afternoons and settle into a long, deeply held debate over LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Michael Jordan. Bozeman shares that he'll be back in Chicago for stand-up shows this September, and weighs in on the city's next generation of stars in Caleb Williams and the White Sox.  FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN WIN $1,000 AT Tiege.com/10years 🎧 New episodes every Thursday — filmed at Tiege Hanley Studios in Chicago.  🔗 Follow The Pat McGann Show: Instagram: @thepatmcgannshow TikTok: @thepatmcgannshow Apple Podcasts & Spotify: The Pat McGann Show 🎤 Guest: Kevin Bozeman Instagram: @kevinbozeman1 💚 Sponsored by Tiege Hanley — Get 40% off your first box + free gift → tiege.com/pat Interested in sponsoring The Pat McGann Show?

    Marcelo Balboa & Joey Villagomez: World Cup Recap & Back of the Yards | The Pat McGann Show Ep. 48

    Which Chicago office building doubles as a former mob execution site and a cushy city day job? Just ask Joey Villagomez. The Back of the Yards comic — who picked up the nickname "Joey the Clown" — joins Pat McGann and Dwayne Kennedy alongside World Cup analyst Marcelo Balboa this week. Villagomez traces his path from tagging CTA train cars as a teenager to hosting rooms across Chicago's old open mic circuit with Felipe Esparza and Bill Burr, plus a recent hour at the Comedy Store that's got him eyeing a full month in LA.  Balboa, meanwhile, breaks down how Spain shut down Lionel Messi and dismantled Argentina in the World Cup final, and shares the story of the friend who had to leave Pat's Kirkland stand-up show early — mid dental-surgery recovery — because he couldn't stop laughing.  🎧 New episodes every Thursday — filmed at Tiege Hanley Studios in Chicago.  🔗 Follow The Pat McGann Show: Instagram: @thepatmcgannshow TikTok: @thepatmcgannshow Apple Podcasts & Spotify: The Pat McGann Show 🎤 Co-Host: Dwayne Kennedy Instagram: @dwaynetkennedy 🎤 Guest: Marcelo Balboa Instagram: @marcelobalboa17  🎤 Guest: Joey Villagomez Instagram: @Joeydaclown 💚 Sponsored by Tiege Hanley — Get 40% off your first box + free gift → tiege.com/pat Interested in sponsoring The Pat McGann Show?

    Tom Waddle: Chicago Bears & Ditka w/ Marcelo Balboa's World Cup Picks | The Pat McGann Show Ep. 47

    Getting cut four times by the same team would send most guys to Wall Street. Tom Waddle had the finance degree ready, but stayed anyway. The Chicago Bears legend and longtime ESPN 1000 host joins Pat and Dwayne Kennedy to talk going undrafted out of the greatest draft class in NFL history, the speech Mike Ditka gave him on every cut day, and the 1991 Vikings game that turned a practice-squad guy into a Chicago household name. He also gets honest about the All-Madden playoff game against Dallas he mostly doesn't remember, and what 19 years on the radio with Silvy has taught him. Plus, Marcelo Balboa checks in with the World Cup down to its Final Four — and a look into America’s odd beef with soccer (even though American Football’s scoring is just as “boring”) WIN $1,000 — VISIT  TIEGE.COM/10YEARS TO ENTER  🎧 New episodes every Thursday — filmed at Tiege Hanley Studios in Chicago.  🔗 Follow The Pat McGann Show: Instagram: @thepatmcgannshow TikTok: @thepatmcgannshow Apple Podcasts & Spotify: The Pat McGann Show 🎤 Co-Host: Dwayne Kennedy Instagram: @dwaynetkennedy 🎤 Guest: Marcelo Balboa Instagram: @marcelobalboa17 🎤 Guest: Tom Waddle Instagram: @tomieboy87 💚 Sponsored by Tiege Hanley — Get 40% off your first box + free gift → tiege.com/pat Interested in sponsoring The Pat McGann Show?

    Oz Pearlman: Reading Joe Burrow's Mind & Balboa on Team USA's Brutal Exit | Ep. 46

    Ever wonder what it takes to convince Joe Burrow to let a stranger mess with his head on national television? This week Pat sits down with mentalist Oz Pearlman, the guy with 8.9 million Instagram followers and a knack for melting NFL players' brains on camera.  Oz breaks down how he talked his way past a hard "no" to get Joe Burrow into one of his most viral clips ever, walks through the harrowing minute he spent diving under a table at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and previews his unprecedented live Netflix special taping at the Brooklyn Paramount.  Before the interview, Marcelo Balboa returns with his World Cup report, dissecting the USMNT's ugly 4-1 exit and America's pay-to-play youth soccer model. Balboa unpacks the red card controversy that had everyone talking about a phone call from Trump to FIFA, explains why VAR has officially gone too far, and shares feel-good stories like Cape Verde's hero's welcome home. He wraps it up with his final eight picks and some speculation on whether this is the last World Cup for legends like Messi and Ronaldo. Safe to say, you may be leaving this episode with your mind blown.  🎧 New episodes every Thursday — filmed at Tiege Hanley Studios in Chicago.  🔗 Follow The Pat McGann Show: Instagram: @thepatmcgannshow TikTok: @thepatmcgannshow Apple Podcasts & Spotify: The Pat McGann Show 🎤 Co-Host: Dwayne Kennedy Instagram: @dwaynetkennedy 🎤 Guest: Marcelo Balboa Instagram: @marcelobalboa17 🎤 Guest: Oz Pearlman Instagram: @ozthementalist 💚 Sponsored by Tiege Hanley — Get 40% off your first box + free gift → tiege.com/pat Interested in sponsoring The Pat McGann Show?

    Marcelo Balboa, Aaron Marino & Antonio Centeno: World Cup, Shark Tank & Loafers | TPMS Ep. 45

    This week Pat and Dwayne Kennedy ring in the 4th of July, remember Stacey King, and Marcelo Balboa checks in from the World Cup to explain how Paraguay wrecked everyone's bracket. Then two of the internet's original men's-style influencers, Aaron Marino (Alpha M.) and Antonio Centeno (Real Men Real Style), join back to back to talk nose hair, Sears jackets, and how a Marine Corps uniform was essentially the kickstarter to an entire business empire.  Aaron traces his brand back to a childhood on a miniature Sicilian donkey farm outside Philadelphia, and the Porsche dealership moment that convinced him his midlife crisis had officially arrived. There's also a very specific colonoscopy story that earns him the title of "ass man," and a shared goal with Antonio to be the best-looking guy at his own funeral. It's equal parts vanity, mortality, and miniature donkeys.
