The chores we had as kids. Did you know...?

from ROCK MORNINGS · host Brian Simpson

What a weekend!!! Had a very successful 9-Pin Tap Tourney on Saturday to raise money for the Rock Foundation, and then I sat around and did absolutely nothing yesterday, with the exception of watching football. In the news this morning, the latest on what's happening in Minneapolis/St. Paul, a deadly train derailment in Spain, an update on Kiefer Sutherland's arrest from last week, the Poison 40th Anniversary tour gets nixed, and a recall on chocolate gets expanded. Speaking of football, we recapped all this weekend's NFL Divisional round games and looked ahead to next Sunday's AFC & NFC Championship games. The Bucks play at noon today as part of the NBA's MLK Day schedule, the Badgers got a nice win against Rutgers over the weekend, and the college football National Championship is tonight. We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and discussed the unusual injury Emilia Clarke suffered while filming her new show. Great story about a kid in the UK who helped save his mother's life after she passed out while driving. A man is going viral for listing all the chores he had to do when he was a kid, so we tried to think back to our childhoods and remember all the stuff we were responsible for. Elsewhere in sports, John Harbaugh officially gets hired by the NY Giants, Matt LaFleur & the Packers have reached an agreement to extend his contract, Kevin Durant passes Dirk Nowitski on the NBA's all-time scoring list, and Air Force suspended their basketball coach. Did you know………the zoo animal responsible for the most injuries to zookeepers? Did you know……..how many jobs were created by a specific taco? Did you know……….how many Americans are using A.I.? And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a car thief who found something criminal in a vehicle he stole, a #FloridaMan who got busted for repeatedly throwing roofing nails on the road, a company is in hot water for basically selling cake batter disguised as protein powder, a delivery robot that got destroyed when it got stuck on some train tracks, a kid who got arrested for trying to stay in a Walmart for 24 hours, and a dude who got busted for doing donuts in a church parking lot on a first date.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
