“Josh McClure, a private with Sioux City Fire Rescue, makes Chicago Fire appointment television each week with his wife, Meghan McClure.”
Sidebar: Watched Rescue Me.



2. Hardcore Spawn.
“The producers of Hardcore Pawn: Chicago are hoping to turn pro wrestler and restaurant owner Lisa Marie Varon’s unusual career path into a reality TV show,” the Tribune reports.
“The series would revolve around Varon and her Lincoln Park restaurant, The Squared Circle. Cameras began rolling Sunday when The Squared Circle hosted patrons for WWE’s Hell in a Cell pay-per-view and are expected to return a few more times to film.”
From Wikipedia:
“She owned a restaurant in Louisville, Kentucky called Fat Tony’s Pizzeria, but sold it in May 2007. In May 2008, she and her husband opened a custom car shop, Black Widow Customs, in Louisville. The shop was destroyed on December 16, 2010, in a fire, which the authorities deemed suspicious. This occurred the day after a local TV show’s ‘Consumer Watch’ segment. Antwane Glenn, a football player at the University of Kentucky, wanted a refund after claiming his car was left undrivable following Black Widow Customs’ work on it. He contacted WHAS11 and the story was profiled on the show. In March 2013, the Varons opened a restaurant named The Squared Circle in Chicago, Illinois.”
