Bad News with Happy Music/Daily Check-Ins

Like an idiot, I decided to work on my backyard firepit yesterday in the extreme heat.



We got six of the nine circles done before calling it quits after about two hours. It was absolutely brutal…and I will never make that mistake again.



Needless to say, I'm dragging ass today.



Thankfully, we had a MAJOR concert announcement this morning, which helped perk me up a bit.



In case you missed it, Godsmack & Dorothy are coming to the La Crosse Center on Friday, October 16th!!! Tickets go on-sale this Friday at 10am.



In the news this morning, a recall on Bacon, the CEO of Cracker Barrel is stepping down after the company's disastrous attempt at rebranding, Bryan Kohberger is attempting to change his plea, Carly Simon announces that she's got Parkinson's disease



In sports, the Brewers started their west coast road trip with a loss to the Giants last night, Eric Bieniemy's wife was shot by the couple's son, Jamal Adams is signing with the Vikings, Michael Lombardi is on paid administration leave from UNC, Conor McGregor is looking to fight Max Holloway again in 2027, and FIFA President Gianni Infantino has been accused of corruption.



Talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight and let you know what's new on New Release Tuesday. Plus, as the 25th Anniversary of 9/11 gets nearer, John Stewart & Pete Davidson announce a new comedy special to raise money for 9/11 charities.



Great story from New Jersey about a cop who helped deliver a baby in a parking lot, and a dog that's been missing for five years gets reunited with it's owner.



Apparently, some people are eating more iceberg lettuce & trying to get the explosive diarrhea so they'll lose weight.



Elsewhere in sports, Ryan Lasko is starting to get feeling in his legs, a squirrel gets on the field and the grounds crew has a hell of a time trying to corral it, and a soccer team wins a title after 75 years of trying!



In a new round of "Who'd You Rather"...$50k in cash immediately, or a coin-flip for a shot at $1 million?



Grant Bilse of the Wisco Sports Show joined me just after 8am to talk about Packers training camp.



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a bunch of kids at a YMCA Summer camp that ate mushroom-laced edibles, a #FloridaMan who was depositing his co-workers' paychecks into his account, a woman in Iowa who got busted for DUI on a lawnmower, and a cop in Nashville who was banging another cop in a school.
