It was another great week on the radio. Here’s a bit of what we did!

  1. Tons of great music!
  2. More winning!
  3. An ice cream shop in Texas has a new flavor, crawfish! The ice cream tastes like butter, garlic, Cajun seasoning and crawfish juice. The owner said the reviews are mixed. (That’s a hard pass!)
  4. Three guys, from Los Angeles, who used a bear costume to fool an insurance company, are going to jail. They pleaded no contests to fraud. One of them put on the bear suit and acted like they were tearing into luxury cars to claim the insurance money. They’ll spend 6 months in prison. (But, did they get their bear costume back?)
  5. Did you know there are ‘smart toilets’? They have sensors that will track your….you know…and send the info to your smartphone. There’s also camera’s that will send you pics! (Be sure this doesn’t end up in a group chat by accident)
  6. NASA is watching a giant asteroid about the size of a football stadium. They say it’ll get real close to Earth on Friday, the 13th of April 2029. NASA is “pretty sure” it won’t hit us. (I’m not a plan ahead guy, but if I’m still around I’m not filing my taxes that year!)

Thanks for listening, have a fantastic weekend and let’s meet up on the radio again next week!

Mike McKay
Mike is BACK on the air every morning all across Eau Claire and the Chippewa Valley on 105-7 CFW! With over 28+ years in the Chippewa Valley, this has become home for Mike and his wife Lori. His kids grew up here and they still live here as well. When he's not on the air waking up the Valley, Mike spends time working around the house and yard as well as relaxing on the deck, usually more time relaxing than working! Weekends mean exploring the area and even after all these years, both he and his wife Lori still find things they've never seen before. Mike enjoys a little bit of online poker and spending quality time with his Pomeranian GiGi and kitty "Violet". Oh, and hockey is the only sport that matters in his house, "GO WILD"!
