Happy Hump Day! Gonna be chilly the rest of the week with highs in the 40's!



We started things off this morning with an update on Diddy & an update on the Menendez brothers, another member of Trump's administration getting named, and an amusement park ride that malfunctioned & trapped riders for several hours.



In sports, we talked about the Cavs finally losing a game after starting the regular season 15-0, previewed Week 12 in the NFL, and on the ice…the Bruins have fired their head coach, and Ovechkin is week-to-week with a lower body injury.



Let you know what's on TV tonight, and discussed a "hack" that supposedly makes pizza healthier.



A new study in Australia found that the highways & bi-ways are safer if people are required to retake their driver's test at age 50. Something Brian has been suggesting for years!



If you were pissed about the buffering during the Jake Paul/Mike Tyson event on Netflix last Friday, this #FloridaMan is leading the charge by suing the streaming service.



During today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a cruise ship that was tilted on it's side while playing Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic, a #FloridaWoman who threatened to tase everyone in her family, and a kid in Texas who got locked in a dryer at a laundromat because he lost a bag of chips.

Grant Bilse from the Wisco Sports Show

It's like SUMMER out there this morning. Minus the rain, obviously.



But it was in the 60's when I left for work. Nice & balmy. Unfortunately, that's not going to stick around.



We started you off this morning with news about the current Mayor of La Crosse, another member of Donald Trump's administration being nominated, a proposal for free school meals in Wisconsin, and a woman from Brownsville, WI, is facing charges in a "large-scale" poaching scheme.



In sports, the Bucks eked out a win last night, the Badger men's basketball team remained undefeated thanks to an overtime win last night, the Cowboys are falling apart & apparently…so is their stadium!



ICYMI, Spirit Airlines filed for bankruptcy, so we took a look at how that could affect holiday travel over the next few weeks.



We let you know what's new on New Release Tuesday and we talked to Grant Bilse from the Wisco Sports Show!



Cool story about a woman who donated part of her liver to save a young boy and finally got to meet him. And another great story about a guy in Georgia who saw a burning house & was able to break down the front door & save the person trapped inside.



And during today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about an idiot who forgot his bag of drugs on a train and reported the bag missing, a granny in the UK who had a great response when she was busted for possession of cocaine, a pig on the loose named "Notorious P.I.G.", and a sad statement about where we get our news from in this country.

2nd Floor Sara - What's going on this week

The Friggin' Sports

Say goodbye to these temps in the 50's…because by Wednesday, we're going to be turning the heat back on.



We kicked things off this morning with news about a recall on organic carrots that have sickened people across the country, a winter storm that could impact Thanksgiving travel, Spirit Airlines filing bankruptcy, and a visit from the U.S. Navy Blue Angels to the area.



In sports, the Packers blocked a potential game-winning field goal against the Bears yesterday to improve to 7-3, the Badgers lost to the #1 ranked Oregon Ducks on Saturday and then FIRED their offensive coordinator, and the Bucks lost to the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday.



Of course, we recapped Saturday's Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson "fight".



Talked about what's on TV tonight, a new Popeye horror film that's on it's way, and a wild story about Urkel from "Family Matters".



Mondays kinda suck, so it's no surprise that on average, Americans will spend 40 minutes of their day wishing they were somewhere else. And if that doesn't help to improve your mood, we ran down a list of things you can do to be happier.



And if you STILL need something to pick you up on a dreary Monday morning, check out this story about a 98 year-old Veteran who just got his high school diploma, and definitely read about this guy who surprised his father with his dream car.



Second-Floor Sarah stopped by to talk about what's happening this week in our area, and we also talked about the USPS releasing a Betty White stamp in 2025!



During today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a teacher that claims she was sexually assaulted by a 10-year old student, another plane that was hit by gunfire, a guy who tried to smuggle a BUNCH of tarantulas, the phenomenon of the "Winter Penis", and a Pickleball bro who did NOT appreciate losing.
