Doc in the studio all morning…and mayo or butter on your grilled cheese?
The weekend has finally arrived.
And I’m still not 100%. Feeling a bit better than yesterday, but still coughing up chunky phlegm and dealing with stuffy sinus issues.
Blech.
Maybe some time outside in the warmer temps this weekend will help.
Normally on a Friday, Doc would join us by phone, but with Jean in Nashville, he decided to join me in the studio this morning for the entire show, including his weekly Racing Report thanks to County Materials in Holmen.
In the news this morning, a deadly helicopter crash in New York yesterday, bridge inspections in the Eau Claire area begin next week, Wisconsin school districts will not be complying with a directive from the Trump administration to eliminate DEI programs, Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler will not run for reelection, road construction on I-90/94 near the Dells begins next week, and Publishers Clearing House is filing for bankruptcy.
In sports, the Brewers lost to the Rockies yesterday, but the Bucks got their sixth win in a row last night by beating the Pelicans. Day one of the Masters ended yesterday with Justin Rose in the lead, Alexander Ovechkin got a hero’s welcome in Washington last night, and a few NFL refs have been demoted by the league.
Elsewhere in sports, a golfer at the Masters was caught peeing in a creek on the course during play, and a bunch of new & mixed-gender events are coming to the LA Olympics in 2028.
We let you know what’s on TV this weekend and what’s in theaters. And check out these heroic state troopers who were able to locate a missing child by helicopter.
In the most obvious news of all time, whacking off before bed can help you have a better night’s sleep.
Tomorrow is “National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day“, so we discussed some stats on one of our favorite sammies. And in other food news, a restaurant in South Carolina has a S’mores/Oyster hybrid on it’s menu. Sounds disgusting.
Betty White lived a very long time and most of us know that a daily hot dog was one of her secrets to a long life. But apparently, she also admitted that some vodka & chocolate cake in the morning might have helped.
And in today’s edition of “Bad News with Happy Music”, we had stories about a DUI in Iowa involving some construction equipment, a guy in China who loved sniffing his smelly socks so much that he developed a lung infection, a woman who called AAA to fix her flat tire after the cops used spike-strips on her car during a high speed chase, an assistant principal who got a foot massage from a student, and a former judge who shot her ex-husband AND her ex-boyfriend.
