Easter stuff. Brian rants about apologies. A stabbing in a chicken coop.
Hello, Friday! It’s Easter weekend and we’ve got a bunch of rain in the forecast today with some thunderstorms possible tonight.
Not going to warm up until next Wednesday when we might see temps get back into the 60’s.
With the holiday coming up on Sunday, we looked at some Easter stuff this morning including how much Americans will be spending on food, candy, and other Easter stuff. And a “new-ish” trend for kids who want to go hunting for Easter eggs.
In the news this morning, Pam Bondi gets fired by President Trump, the Artemis II launch had a bit of a snafu when the toilet broke, the Tiger Woods bodycam footage gets released, the University of Wisconsin President is refusing to leave his position after being told to resign, and a recall on popular chicken nuggets from Walmart.
In sports, the Brew Crew start a 3-game series in Kansas City tonight, the Bucks are off until tomorrow when they welcome in the Celtics, the NCAA Women’s Final Four kicks off later today while the men’s Final Four starts tomorrow night. Michigan’s getting their starting point guard back just in time after an allergic reaction sent him to the hospital, and Kirk Cousins signs with the Raiders!
We talked about what’s on TV this weekend and what’s new in theaters. Plus, the latest on the drama surrounding the band “Turnstile”. It’s some wild stuff!
Great story about a woman who was hiking with her dog and fell over 180 feet down a waterfall, was rescued by helicopter, and a week later they were also able to locate & rescue her dog that went missing after her tumble.
Elsewhere in sports, both Tiger Woods(duh) AND Phil Mickelson will miss next week’s Masters tournament, Cade Cunningham is still recovering from his collapsed lung, the Washington Wizards apologized for an April Fool’s joke because overly sensitive people got butthurt on the internet, and a couple of Red Bull racers have been suspended for sabotaging a recent race by moving rocks on the race course.
Lots of people are going to be traveling this weekend to see family & friends, so we discussed some of our biggest travel pet-peeves.
Doc joined us just after 8am to talk NASCAR racing thanks to County Materials in Holmen & Eau Claire.
And in today’s edition of “Bad News with Happy Music”, we had stories about a stabbing inside of a chicken coop, an OnlyFans content creator who’s sending “care packages” to the brave men & women of the US Military, a restaurant in Louisiana that had to install a fence around their outdoor dining area to stop homeless people from shitting on their patio, and a #FloridaTeen who was arrested after human remains were found in multiple suitcases.
