Another fun week on the morning show. Here’s some things that happened.
- on Facebook and on the air we talked about: Dumb ways you hurt yourself, strange things you’ve seen while driving, a word or phrase that should go away forever and if animals could talk which animal would be the rudest?
- Top baby names of 2024: boy-Noah, girl-Olivia
- Congrats to Chicago, Orkin named them the “rattiest” city in the U.S.
- more people shop on-line at 2:36pm on a Saturday than any other time of the week.
- we consume 80-pounds of sugar a year!
- the world’s oldest “paperboy” finally retired, he’s 82!
- TONS of great music from the 80’s, 90’s & more!
Thanks for letting me be part of your mornings and I look forward to doing it again next week. Have a great weekend!

What makes us human is having thoughts and many times we’ll disagree about those thoughts or opinions. Not that long ago […]

It’s Monday (again!?)
It happens every week, Monday. Have you noticed that it’s how it’s said that can make the day. Follow me for a second. If you say “it’s Monday again (ugh)” you’re obviously dreading the day. But, if you try “it’s Monday!” as in let’s get a fresh start, your day may go just a little […]
