What a week! Here’s just some of what happened on the show.
- Music, music and more great music!
- A couple of police officers in India were suspended. The officers signed out the two inmates saying that they wanted to question them, but instead took them a bar where they spent about seven hours drinking.
- According to attorney Jeffery Fisher, if someone uses the word “never” they’re lying. (I’ve never heard that before, have you?)
- A guy in Kentucky won $160 million dollar Powerball in late April. He went to the lottery office to collect his money, then his girlfriend and him headed to a resort in Florida for some r&r. They got drunk and started fighting with other guests. They were arrested. (I say he has his winnings spent by the end of the year!)
- 53 percent of pet owners say they trust their pets more than their partner.
- A guy in the UK was pulled over for driving a van without doors, windows and license plates. A wooden stool was strapped to the van’s roof, and a triangular slow moving vehicle sign was tied across the back of the van where the license plate should have been. (but the radio still worked, so that’s cool!)
As always, thanks for listening! Have a great weekend and let’s do it again next week.

It’s National Root Beer day! There’s so many different types to choose from, but where did it actually come from?
