Hypothetical Thursday

Office Cora

Bad News with Happy Music

Daily Check-Ins

Not as warm as it was yesterday, but should stay dry today with highs in the mid-50's.



On the show today, we talked to Office Cora just after 8am to see what she's up to in the 715 this weekend.



And we asked each other hypothetical questions because it's "Hypothetical Thursday". Brian's question for Jean was: "If you could attend any championship game featuring your team of choice, what would it be?"



Meanwhile, Jean's question for Brian was: "Which one could you live without: Internet or vehicles?"



In the news this morning, the journalist from Wisconsin who was kidnapped in Iraq has been released by Iraq, a man in Texas admits to killing a 7 year-old girl in his delivery van, Rex Heuermann admits to killing 8 women in the Gilgo Beach serial murders, the husband of the woman who allegedly fell overboard in the Bahamas has been arrested, and the McDonald's CEO can't stop eating his own "products".



In sports, the Brew Crew dropped another one to the Red Sox yesterday, MLB hands down suspensions for the brawl between the Angels & Braves, the Bucks lost again last night, the OKC Thunder clinch the #1 seed in the Western Conference with the NBA Playoffs right around the corner, and the NCAA Men's Frozen Four kicks off this afternoon with Wisconsin vs. North Dakota!



We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and what we've been watching.



Plus, Brian talked about his latest favorite reels to watch while doomscrolling.



A dad who runs a bakery is going viral for having his kids narrate the videos he posts, and if you're going to be on vacation sometime soon…you might want to try Out-Horse-ing your emails.



Elsewhere in sports, the latest on the Mike Vrable/Dianna Russini scandal, Fernando Mendoza plans on skipping the upcoming NFL draft, the Pirates lock up Konnor Griffin to a big contract, Ovi is planning on mulling retirement this summer, and an unfortunate incident at a Tampa Bay Rays game recently left one fan feeling a draft.



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a couple of guys in #Florida who strapped a dead gator to their vehicle and drove around with it on the roof, a woman who sneezed a 1-inch worm out of her nose, a guy in California who got arrested for demanding free gasoline, a world-record gathering of Michael Meyers, and filming yourself to train your A.I. robot.
