It was a fun week on the radio, thanks for letting us be part of your world! Here’s a bit of what happened this week.
- Lots of great music!
- Have you “burped” your house? It’s based on an old German winter ritual, called ‘lüften’. You open all your windows and doors for 5 minutes, to let out stale air. Experts claim it reduces condensation and that prevents mold. (make sure you go outside and give your house a couple gentle pats just to make sure all the burps are out)
- To help cut costs some people are choosing to call Uber rather than an ambulance. Medical experts say this is a bad idea. (however, if you slip your driver an extra 20 bucks they’ll stick their head out the window and make a siren sound)
- A guy in England just set a new Guinness World Record for having the largest collection of unique traffic cones, he has 500 of them and they’re all different.
- According to a study, we’re more honest in the morning. (of course I read this in the afternoon, soooo)
- Got an old iPhone 4 laying around? Gen Zer’s want them and they’re paying up to a $1000 on Ebay for them. They said they like the way the pictures look. (you can’t just download a free app to filter your pics?)
- A few years ago, Frito-Lay said the proper term for the orange powder on your fingers from eating Cheeto’s is called “Cheetle. (I call it evidence that people have been eating my Cheeto’s!)
- A man in Poland had to be rescued by the fire department after becoming wedged inside a washing machine while playing hide-and-seek with his kids. He’s ok, the washing machine was destroyed trying to get him out. (but, did he win the game of hide & seek?)
Thanks again for listening, have a great weekend and let’s meet up on the radio next week!

Happy New Year???
Be careful with your “Happy New Year” wishes to people. A new survey says there are specific dates that we need to stop saying ‘happy new year’. If you’re texting someone you need to stop by January 3rd (you missed that window). If you’re going to wish a co-worker Happy New Year you have until […]
