Gary wraps up the show with a jam-packed final hour starting with What’s Happening, breaking down the most talked about and unexpected stories making headlines today.
Then it is time for Gas Fantasy 4 Play, this week’s Pick 6 edition. Gary, Shannon, Board Wizard Elmer, and producer Matt make their NFL Wild Card round picks, with a special assist from Gary’s dog Peter. You can see Peter’s picks over on Instagram at @GaryAndShannon.
The hour closes with Gary taking on a solo What You Learned via listener talk-backs and then the Nine News Nuggets You Need to Know, featuring stories you did not hear anywhere else this week, including the headline that says it all. A naked mermaid attacking a deputy.
