A.I. toys for Xmas. Americans will spend $1,000 on Thanksgiving.

from ROCK MORNINGS · host Brian Simpson

Back at it on a Monday! Successful weekend with some raking, a Harley ride, and the Christmas lights are up!!! In the news this morning, a winning Mega Millions ticket was sold on Friday, the FAA has lifted all restrictions on flights now that the government shutdown is over, and a grandfather is using his granddaughter to help him steal thousands of dollars in merchandise! In sports, the Packers beat the Giants yesterday, the Bucks split the weekend with a win on Friday and a loss on Saturday, Giannis helped the Lakers get the game ball for a rookie who scored his first NBA points, and the Badger football team stunk it up on the field on Saturday against #2 Indiana. Else where in sports, the Badger men's basketball team plays tonight, Aaron Rodgers may have broken his wrist yesterday, a Texas State Trooper is no longer welcome at college football games, and former Bucks player Patrick Beverley got arrested over the weekend. Let you know what's on TV today/tonight and talked about the halftime entertainment for the three NFL games on Thanksgiving. Couple of cool stories this morning - A city in Oklahoma that is allowing residents to pay off their unpaid parking tickets & overdue library fees by donating food to a local pantry, a woman in England who saved her golfing buddy's life when he had a heart attack, and a cameraman in Canada who had a random encounter with a brain surgeon and is now getting a life-changing treatment. Talked about how much the average American is going to spend on Thanksgiving this year, and also about this year's most dangerous toys! In today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a shoot-out at a grocery store over a turkey, a guy with a suspicious "bulge" in his pants was trying to smuggle some birds into the US, a dude in Montana who got a DUI after he tried to pee into a Budweiser can while driving, an asshole in Texas who destroyed a Veterans Day display but got caught because he left his driver's license at the scene, and a dude in Greece who tried to swallow a burger without chewing!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
