Doc's Racing Report

Bad News with Happy Music/Daily Check-Ins

Here comes the heat again. Not bad today with a high around 80°…but reaching the upper 80's tomorrow and into the 90's by Sunday & Monday.



Uffdah.



Today is Jean's last day on the show for awhile as she & the family are headed to Boston & Cape Cod for a summer vacation.



Speaking of Summer…a bunch of people like to into Halloween-mode the day after the 4th of July. And if you're one of them, we talked about some horror movies that are set during the Summer months that you might want to watch.



In the news this morning, Powerball is now available in the US and the UK, a recall on toaster ovens, a bear got stuck on a utility pole, Vance Boelter is sentenced, a verdict in the Shiloh Hendrix case, and the latest on the deadly officer-involved shooting in Madison.



In sports, the Brewers start a 3-game series with the Rockies tonight, the Dodgers visited the White House yesterday to celebrate their World Series win last season, Fernando Mendoza signs his rookie contract with the Raiders, the Ravens already released Diego Pavia, and Patrick Kane is coming back to Chicago!



We let you know what's on TV & streaming this weekend and what's new in theaters. Plus, some new music you may want to pick up. Also talked about a new series being produced by Peyton Manning called "NASCAR: Americana"



Earlier this week, we had a story about USPS worker in #Florida who was picking up random animals while delivering mail and bringing them back to her house…and now a bunch of those animals are being reunited with their rightful owners. Also, a teenager with some serious lasso skills just recently saved a person who was drowning in the Yellowstone River. And speaking of helping people…who better than Spider Man to come to someone's rescue???



We had a new "Karen of the Day" who really doesn't like people using his driveway to turn around in.



Elsewhere in sports, the Cubs aren't seeking any punishment for the fan involved in that viral slapping incident last weekend, the Norweigan Football Federation is lodging a formal complaint with FIFA in regards to President Trump's World Cup involvement, and a fan who jumped into a fountain in Kansas City to grab a home run ball gets an assist from the player who hit the dinger.



Doc joined us just after 8am for today's Racing Report thanks to County Materials in Holmen & Eau Claire.



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a Sinclair gas station dinosaur that was recently stolen & moved to a more scenic location, a #FloridaMan who received over a kilo of cocaine in the mail, a woman in Tennessee who got arrested after she exposed herself during a traffic stop, a fight between a swimmer & a kite surfer that almost turned deadly, a search of a funeral home found a bucket filled with organs, a dead body was discovered in a donation box, and a former doctor in Washington state who hired a hitman to get his ex-wife addicted to heroin.

Here comes the heat again. Not bad today with a high around 80&deg;&hellip;but reaching the upper 80's tomorrow and into the 90's by Sunday &amp; Monday.
