  • Mac, Jurko, and Harry was the afternoon drive-time show hosted by Dan McNeil, John Jurkovic and Harry Teinowitz. The show debuted on ESPN’s WMVP AM-1000 in Chicago in May 2001, replacing The Huge Show, featuring Bill Simonson and Lou Cannellis. Mac, Jurko, and Harry was regarded as the station’s flagship program. The trio was consistently one of the most popular radio shows among male listeners. Despite their achievements, the show had not been without controversy. In 2002, the station suspended McNeil and Teinowitz over an off-air shoving incident (they then followed it up weeks later with an on-air spat). On June 9, 2006, another on-air incident resulted in station management suspending the duo for two weeks. The fracas started following another episode of McNeil harassing Teinowitz for his silver spoon upbringing. The final hour and twenty minutes of the show was cancelled, with Marc Silverman and Carmen DeFalco taking over. According to the Chicago Tribune, on June 27, 2007, WMVP suspended McNeil for three days after he called Comcast Sports Net Executive Producer Lissa Druss Christman a "bitch" on-air when she declined to answer questions about CSN's production of the June 25, 2007 Chicago Cubs game. Over its five-year history Mac, Jurko and Harry had six producers. Adam Delevitt (2001-2006), Jeff Dickerson (2001-2002), Artie Kennedy (2001-2002), Ben Finfer (2002-present), Scot Bertram (2002-2003, 2006-2007), and Danny Zederman (2007-2009). The show competed directly with Boers and Bernstein, their afternoon counterparts on rival WSCR. The show start time moved up an hour to 2 p.m., following the Mike Tirico Show, to compete directly with Boers and Bernstein as announced on August 30, 2007. The final hour starting at 6 p.m. is a recap of the day's show with highlighted segments and interviews and precedes The Show. On January 16th, 2009, it was announced that Dan McNeil's contract option for 2010 would not be picked up. The Mac, Jurko, and Harry show was renamed "The Afternoon Saloon" and Mac was replaced with Carmen DeFalco. Mac, Jurko, and Harry won the 2006-2007 Golden Icon Award (presented by Travolta Family Entertainment) for Best Radio Personalities.
