The WGN-TV Morning News is a morning show crowded with smart, funny people. Even with a “full house” of familiar personalities, Mike Toomey manages to stand out thanks to his timing, delivery and wildly creative mind.

As a stand-up comic, Mike’s a sure thing. And he’ll be performing on the 24th as part of the Comedy for Cancer benefit at the Tivoli in Downers Grove, alongside Rocky LaPorte.

Mike joins me early on a Sunday evening to talk about Comedy for Cancer, Batman, media, comedy and his favorite Ponce.
