If, in theory, Mac were to do the podcast at some point in the future, what topics/questions would interest you?

Is sports talk in Mac's future? Maybe a podcast?

Would he be interested in investing in CFMB? It seems as if the Triumvirate does not hold the necessary capital for continuous site improvements.

Who's the better player - Jimmy Butler or Demarcus Cousins?

1. Mac, if you were hired to be the architect to craft a local comeback for each Chet and North, respectively, how would you chart each's return to ensure maximum success? Answer can not be: "impossible!". Must chart a path that you think would have the best chance of success.

2. What is your relationship with and/or opinion of Brandmeier? Please share any interesting stories. Mancow talks about him like he is a true rat bastard, but if you have listened recently, it would be hard to deny that he is still immensely-talented.

3. What is your relationship with and/or opinion of Mancow? Please share any interesting stories. Is he as fake in real life as he seems? It really feels as if his on air thing is nothing but sheer, carefully-crafted persona.

Mac is a pretty keen observer of radio past and present. Point him in the direction and he will give you more than half an hour of good radio about the nuts and bolts of the business.

That will definitely be covered.

Just curious about some other or more specific questions. I'll go through and grab some if there's time.

This.

dolphin is correct. Mac's candidness with what happens behind the scenes-- both good and bad-- is something I always enjoyed reading.

What does he feel about the direction the Sox have finally chosen?

What does he reckon was his biggest 'good luck' moment over the years - be it professional or not - and, conversely, was there a moment or decision that he feels he really should've handled better/differently - not with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, but in that moment.

If that's deemed an unpleasant or uninteresting question, then perhaps this one ... during the overlap of years with both The Score and The Bored co-existing, what (if any) impact did The Bored have on the station as a whole and/or on the individuals toiling away at The Score Saltmines?

Will Mac be looking to lower his handicap on the golf course this year or does he just play to have a good time? If looking to
lower it, what does he feel are strengths/weaknesses of his game as of the end of the 2016 season? I know he has claimed
to hit a long ball from time to time, is his kryptonite with the putting/chipping like a majority of the rest of us?

Interested in getting Mac's thoughts on the Bears and whether there is someone in the 1st round that he would deem
a good choice for QB and whether that would be at #3 or gambling to move down.

So Da Ma Na is coming to your house, Doc?

I hope you have a designated smoking area for him. It would be rude if you didn't. Also, provide him an ash tray. Not a coke can.

I honestly don't know if you're joking. So your studio isn't in your house?

Would love to hear about what went on when Mac and Boers were looking into being syndicated... did you do it on your own or did you have management approval to look into it? How many stations were interested?

How close was Mariotti to being signed around in '99?

What haven't you done yet, that you would still like to do? Personally or professionally. Just name one or two in each column.

Mac, you mentioned that have played a lot of golf in the last year. What's in your bag? How far do you hit a 7-iron?

What's in the Vending Machine.....today?

Who do you love?

Is "Dangerous Talk" going to be released or has it been replaced with your book about Patrick?

If he is coming by the Kenilworth studio, a good guess would be....beer.

Greg Solk to XRT - you said you went to DRV in part because of Greg. What would be the ideal crossover show between sports and music?

Last call for questions. Gloop? Nothing?

Is Gloop here any more?

What brand of TV(s) and surround system comprise Mac's a/v system?
What vehicle is he currently driving?
Whatever happened to the gout?
When did you get sick of answering these idiot questions?
Whatever happened to Baby Jane?

Mac's been a successful radio guy who is presently on hiatus.

When on hiatus, what does Mac roll out of bed for?
What future gig/activity would Mac jump out of bed for? Doesn't have to be a job.

Possibly. Does he opt for the blue pill or has he still got the mojo working? Not interested if his 'tool belt' rivals Peter North....just sayin.
