Christmas tree shopping; This tree costs what?
On Thursday's PhilCast Phil tells the story of Christmas tree shopping on Wednesday. The official PhilCast Christmas Tree is now up in the recording lounge. Did someone say Tiger Woods? Have you heard the great conspiracy theory on this deal yet? Listen and you will. Lips LaBelle is in studio too, where the boys come up with the idea for a 'blow show' as well. And did you know Brett Favre has made Ba-Ba's list?

Cianciola back on the radio
That's right, Phil Cianciola was back on the radio for the first time since being fired back in September, making an appearance on the WSSP Sportstalk 1250 airwaves at the station's annual toy drive for Childrens Hospital. You can hear some of that along with an interview with Doug Russell, Phil's former producer who now does the morning show there. Also on today's showgrum, Phil has a rather unique observation about Tiger Woods after playing the infamous voicemail Tiger left for his girlfriend. Then flash back to 1987 and the Brewers' 13-game win streak. Phil plays a clip from TV back then featuring Johnny Brandmeier, one of his radio idols, now also on the sidelines after being fired this week.

Reader Poll
Would you rather suffer through a December of sub-zero temperatures and blizzards or a first-round playoff loss at the hands of Brett Favre?
I'll take the Ice Age and a Packers win.
I'd rather see the Packers lose to Favre so I can stay warm.
This is like choosing the least painful way to die.
