Daily Check-Ins

Welcome back to work!

Got to the "Monday Morning Throwback" today, and we recapped this weekend's NHL & NBA playoffs.

And Brian recapped his weekend in Des Moines to see Cake.

Had a great story about a long-time resident of a small town in Missouri who donated $500,000 to his volunteer fire department, and Brian tried to get Jean & Shaw to watch the video of JR Bunn breaking his leg in an MMA bout.

Funny video of a pelican interrupting a baseball game, and during today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about an officer who accidentally pepper-sprayed himself, a man in Utah that got stuck on a rock, a bunch of delayed mail in MN, drone cops, a guy who got a DUI while riding on his lawnmower, a postal worker who raced a Mustang, and a guy who built a fence to hide his boat.

Happy Halloween!



Started the morning with news about airline refunds, the Menendez brothers, and McDonald's ice cream machines!



We dove right in this morning with all sorts of Halloween stats & info, plus some Halloween movie trivia!



We talked to Office Cora about what's happening in the 715 this weekend, and we looked ahead to November & gave you a list of things to look forward to in the upcoming month.



The Dodgers beat the Yankees last night to win the World Series, and week nine in the NFL kicks off tonight on Amazon Prime.



Cool story about a family-owned business in North Carolina that has turned itself into a hurricane relief center.



If you're a REALLY hard-core O'Dell Beckham fan…or if you're curious about what a jockstrap might smell like…you're gonna want this candle.



And during today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who was allegedly working on an inexpensive Covid vaccine, a dude in Louisiana who crashed his car while playing a TikTok game, and a couple of women who got busy on the front lawn of a McDonald's!

Happy Halloween!

The Friggin' Sports/Kid catches Freddie Freema

One more day 'til Halloween, Halloween!



One more day 'til Halloween. Silver Shamrock!



Good luck getting THAT out of your skull today.



We helped you over the hump this morning news & sports & entertainment.



Obviously, the election is coming to an end(FINALLY), but that doesn't mean it's getting any better. You've got a sexual Kamala billboard, and Biden calling Trump voters "garbage".



How nice.



Shared the sad news that actress Teri Garr passed away after a lengthy battle with MS.



On the plus-side of things, Jack White is donating a bunch of money to help cover some of the medical expenses for a beloved bartender in Milwaukee that was recently severely injured.



The Yankees managed to stave off elimination last night with an 11-4 win over the Dodgers, but a couple of Yankees douche-bag fans proved yet again why they might be the worst fans in the world.



ICYMI, Ring Doorbell is looking to pay TOP dollar for verifiable proof that ghosts exist!



According to a new survey, 20% of people think that kids should be able to vote. That's just what you want. An 8 year-old hitting the booth to fill out a ballot.



The White Sox look to be hiring a new manager after a record-setting season last year, and with today being "National Candy Corn Day", we talked about what you should do if you over-indulge on the Halloween candy the next few days.



Cool story about a lost ring that was found on a golf course & returned to it's owner he lost it over 50 years ago! And a woman in Ohio was saved from a house fire through the basement window!



Did you see this kid that thought he was going to the dentist, only to get the surprise of a lifetime by going to Game One of the World Series AND catching the Freddie Freeman grand-slam, game-winning home run?????



And during today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a manhunt for a guy who staged a bear attack in an attempt to cover up a murder, a guy in Canada who bashed another dude over the head with his driver on the golf course, and apparently…it's going to be too cold to wear slutty costumes in Denver this year.

I'm not letting this 82° weather ruin my day.



We started the morning talking about the upcoming election, obviously…and the news that several ballot boxes have been set on fire recently.



In sports, we recapped last night's Monday Night Football game that wrapped up Week 8 in the NFL, and we also talked about the Dodgers going up 3-0 on the Yankees in the World Series. Plus, the Bucks continue to struggle this season, and D-Wade made a statement about that statue of him that just got unveiled.



Let you know what's new on New Release Tuesday & we also talked to Grant Bilse from the Wisco Sports Show



A family's pet tortoise went missing more than two months ago, and they just found it less than 100 feet away from their house. And check out this elementary school in Missouri that recently honored their beloved custodian.



With Halloween right around the corner, we continued to talk about all things spooky, including a new poll that asked Americans about their favorite KIND of scare movie.



And during today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman who drove a golf cart through a restaurant…but WASN'T intoxicated when it happened, another woman who got charged with "rustling" sheep, and an Uber driver that went completely off the deep end.
