Holiday Giving, Good News & A Little Chaos on the Morning Brew

Send us Fan MailIt’s a full house on today’s Morning Brew with Chris Bennett & Best Friends—and we’re serving up community joy, comedy, friendly chaos, and good news from across the White Mountains.We start by checking in with Jineane Ford on our sister stations Majik 101.7 and iTalk 106.7, where she shares some wonderful news: she’s fully healed and back on her feet after her horse injury. From there, Chris recaps his performance as Robin Williams in the “Dead Comedians” show—voices, energy, and all.Then we spotlight the generosity happening right here at home with updates on the Annual Fast of Compassion and the Light the World Giving Machine. Organizer Sydette Berges joins us live to break down everything you need to know about the Giving Machine that officially opened today in Show Low, plus details on tonight’s 5:30pm launch celebration. From chickens to bedding to sports physicals for local kids, every donation makes a real impact.Paul from Beaumont calls in with another hilarious and inspiring weight-loss update thanks to his “fat shot,” and things get competitive fast when he faces off against Sydette in Are You Smarter Than a Redneck? After we say goodbye to Sydette, Kirk Nurmi jumps in to stir the pot—questioning whether the Giving Machine has an option to keep Paul off the radio. (Spoiler: Chris says absolutely not, and he definitely sees what Kirk is doing!)It’s everything you expect from the Morning Brew: heart, humor, hometown pride, and a whole lot of fun.If you love hearing good news and local voices from the White Mountains, don’t forget to subscribe, share, and leave a review so more neighbors can tune in.
