Bad News with Happy Music/Daily Check-Ins

Looks like it's going to be a wet weekend…so if you've got outdoor stuff to do…today is probably your best option!



In the news this morning, the results from yesterday's primary vote, another Powerball drawing is happening tonight, a recall on certain Toyota models, an American Airlines flight had to make an emergency landing after it hit a bird, and the Eau Claire Express beat the La Crosse Loggers again last night to advance to the Great Plains Championship game.



In sports, the Brewers got shellacked by the Padres last night, the White Sox gave away over 40,000 Pope Leo hats, the MLB Field of Dreams game is tomorrow night, the NFL preseason begins tomorrow night as well, the Vikings are going with Kyler Murray as their QB1, the NBA released it's opening night & Xmas day schedules, and the Indiana Fever head coach is mad!



We talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight. Plus, a trailer for "Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story" dropped yesterday, a bunch of Super Mario Bros Nintendo cartridges were recently found in WI, and the Rock is apparently pursuing a music career now.



Cool story about a kid in Utah who spent all summer working with his 3D printer to make a functional wheelchair for another young child.



We talked to Jake from Autumn Kings about the band's recent viral story about using a strangers' vehicle to get from Rock Fest to Upheaval.



It's "One Gotta Go Wednesday", and we decided to go with minor inconveniences this morning - Waking up a few minutes before your alarm goes off, your socks falling down inside of your shoe, a video you really want to watch buffering every five seconds, or forgetting your old password and trying to reset it…but getting told that your new password can't be the same as your old password.



Elsewhere in sports, an amateur golfer gets busted for cheating on a hole-in-one, a high school football player who practiced with a deadly snake in his helmet, the latest on the Tulsa Little League legal battle, and a "bodybuilder" who was trying to win a competition by drinking heavily & taking 'Roids.



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy in Arizona who got popped for DUI with "Drive Sober or get pulled over" license plates on his vehicle, a "Bodybuilder" who got prepared for a competition by drinking & using 'roids, a lifeguard in Maine that got dragged underwater by a SHARK, and a couple of new additions to the OnlyFans!

One Gotta Go Wednesday. How long do you use a bath towel before washing it? Our interview with Jake from the Autumn Kings.

After Autumn Kings got done with their set at Rock Fest last month, they were headed to another gig at Upheaval in Michigan the very next day.

Unfortunately, their vehicle broke down and after trying to get it fixed locally, they ran into Wisconsin resident, Ernie, who offered them the use of his vehicle so they could make it to their next gig.

Now, Ernie's got his vehicle back...their van has finally been fixed...and they'll be back in the area in about a week at the Northwoods Rock Rally.
