Office Cora returns! Hypothetical Thursday. A mermaid in Louisiana?

A high of 40° today with some rain possible tonight. Gotta get my truck in the car wash today, even if it's just a basic rinse. Lots of stuff in the news this morning with the latest on yesterday's deadly ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis, the new dietary guidelines from the Trump administration, a ding-dong-ditch gone horribly wrong, a Waukesha teen is expected to plead guilty in the murders of his mother & stepfather, and the now infamous "Quality Learing Center" has closed. In sports, the Bucks lost to the Warriors last night, the College Football Playoff semifinals begin tonight on ESPN, a look at this weekend's Wild Card schedule, and NFL viewership was higher than ever this year. We talked about what's on TV & streaming today and a possible explanation for the disappearance of Max's mom in "Stranger Things" during the final season. Not only is it "National Bubble Bath Day", but it's also "World Typing Day", so we looked at some interesting facts about typewriters. It's also Hypothetical Thursday, and Brian's question for Jean was: "Would you rather have a personal maid or a personal chef?", while Jean's question for Brian was: "What three words would describe your 2025?" Elsewhere in sports, the PGA of America CEO is resigning, some disturbing allegations made by the ex-girlfriend of Rashee Rice, the Oakland A's are having some more difficulty in their move to Las Vegas, and the Anaheim Ducks are getting sued by a former employee. If you're like Brian & Jean, you cannot carry a tune, but there's something out there for people who weren't blessed with a beautiful singing voice. It's called "Tuneless Choirs" and we might just need one around here. Office Cora joined us just after 8am to talk about her holiday vacation and to let us know what she's up to this weekend in the 715. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a fortune teller who stole a client's phone, a teenager who fell out of the back of a moving ambulance, a missing walrus penis, a woman who thinks she's a mermaid, and some #FloridaWomen who were hanging out of a moving vehicle during a funeral procession found out the hard way why that's a bad idea.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
