Bad News with Happy Music/Check-ins

More extremely nice weather the rest of this week…maybe some showers & thunderstorms this weekend!



Wednesday means it's time to get over the hump and get ready for a very busy Friday/Saturday/Sunday!



In the news this morning, the latest on the hantavirus cruise ship, a mayor in California is a Chinese spy, RIP to Donald Gibb, more info on the tragic death of a man at the Denver airport, and the Canvas hack has come to an end.



In sports, the Brewers won their fifth in a row last night by beating the Padres, a recap of last night's NBA & NHL Playoff action along with a look at tonight's match-ups, both Brandon Clarke & Jason Collins(NBA players) have died, and Daryl Morey is out in Philly as the 76ers GM.



We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and Brian gave a glowing review to a movie he watched on Netflix yesterday(Alone). Plus, a musical about Weird Al is coming soon!



An interesting look at two VERY different commencement speeches. One that mentions A.I. And another that pays off student loans.



And speaking of A.I., is Brian softening his stance on A.I.? Also…this might be the next big threat when it comes to putting your entire life online.



Elsewhere in sports, Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy is out of the hospital, the charges against the guy who killed the Goudreau brothers will stand, a Tiger Woods' prescription records will be turned over to prosecutors.



We played an "Iconic Horror Movie-edition" of One Gotta Go Wednesday - Friday the 13th. A Nightmare on Elm St. Halloween. Texas Chainsaw Massacre.



And check out this mom's rant about Car Ranch!



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman in Alabama who shot her husband to death because he was annoying her, a motorcycle that somehow ended up on a street pole, a woman who robbed a bank in California without any attempt to disguise her appearance, and an all-you-can-eat buffet in Spain that had to start charging people a "vomit fee".

Another beautiful day in the neighborhood with warm temps & plenty of sunshine.



In the news this morning, a nationwide recall on chocolate, one of the owners of the Bucks is allegedly getting blackmailed, the student who got called "hot" by an adult member of a school board in Tennessee reprimands the entire board, the guy who shot up the White House Correspondents' dinner pleads "not guilty", and a wild scene in Massachusetts yesterday involving a guy shooting at random people in broad daylight.



In sports, the Brewers start a three-game series against the Padres tonight, a recap of last night's NBA & NHL playoff action along with a look at tonight's line-up, Nate MacKinnon takes a puck to the face, Wemby doesn't get suspended by the league for his elbow, and the Bucks are apparently "Open for business" when it comes to Giannis.



We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and what's new on New Release Tuesday. Plus, NBC & FOX make announcements about what they've got lined up for their fall schedules.



Did you mess up Mother's Day??? How about a redo?



Elsewhere in sports, Adrian Peterson is going into the Vikings Ring of Honor this coming season, the NFL has already leaked out a few games on the schedule, and a star running back from Missouri gets shot at a concert.



A woman is reunited with her lost cat after going missing for seven months, and a firefighter who helped deliver a baby years ago is invited to her high school graduation!



Have you seen the Apocalypse Early Warning System? It tracks private jets around the world and could signal the end of the world if a large number of jets suddenly flees the big cities.



Grant Bilse of the Wisco Sports Show joined us just after 8am to talk about the Brewers, Bucks & Packers.



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about some stolen hot dogs in #Florida, a disgusting onion, a couple that discovered a stranger living in their basement, and a mayor in Georgia that fired an entire police department.

And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a hospital in Canada with an ant infestation, gas thieves are using a new tactic to steal your gasoline, a 28 year-old woman was impersonating a high school student for two weeks before being caught, & an update on a guy who stole a bunch of diamonds and swallowed several of them.
