Which include:

Rachael and Jimmy in the middle of a famous sandwich

Steve Edwards: More plans have been announced today about renovations at Wrigley. Seeing you both have spent a major part of your lives at comedy clubs in Wrigleyville, what do you think of the renovation of Wrigley and the culture/neighborhood in general?

Rachael Mason: The government is going to continue investigations into the Secret Service after the scandal over prostitution in Columbia. Is this something we are surprised about? Does America consider this a political scandal or just an old fashioned sex scandal?

Jimmy Carrane: The infrastructure trust was passed yesterday, giving the mayor power to fund projects through a private trust. Will this change Chicago? And the bigger question, do regular Chicagoans care?
