    Another "Karen of the Day". Office Cora talks about her Nashville trip. Toddlers getting tats.

    It was downright chilly yesterday. I had my hood up while picking up dog shit in my backyard. Brrrrrr! Thankfully, warmer temps this weekend with highs in the 70's expected. Started the morning with the Andy Hughes version of "The Thursday Song", and in the news today, the death of Ted Turner….a Wisconsin woman is accused of defrauding Medicaid for over $2 million…the United States is monitoring several passengers who were on the hantavirus cruise ship…the Epstein suicide note is released…Tanner Horner gets sentenced…and the Pope gets hung up on! In sports, the Brewers beat the Cardinals yesterday…a look at last night's NBA & NHL Playoff scores along with tonight's schedule…the Bucks introduced their new head coach yesterday and talked about the future of Giannis with the team…and the Kentucky Derby winner will NOT be running in the Preakness. We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and what we've been watching. Had another "Karen of the Day". This one was REALLY annoying. Like nails on a chalkboard! A tow truck driver in Canada recently rescued a moose that had become trapped in a frozen lake…a couple of pet goats helped save their owner's life after a tornado…and a 4 year-old is credited with saving her grandmother's life after she fell & became disoriented. Elsewhere in sports, Brendan Sorsby's alleged betting activity is being investigated by a bunch of organizations, and the NFL appears to be close to signing a new CBA with their referees. It's Hypothetical Thursday, and Brian's question for Jean was: "You discover that your wonderful one-year-old child is, because of a mix-up at the hospital, not yours. What would you do? Would you want to exchange the child to try to correct the mistake?" Jean's question for Brian was: "Would you rather win $50,000 or let your best friend win $500,000" Office Cora joined us just after 8am to talk about her recent trip to Nashville! She also 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 #FloridaWoman who got busted for DUI after officers found a beer can in her Happy Meal cup, a man found out that his mother's dead body was being used for bomb testing, a couple of women in Missouri robbed their father's bar, a Delta passenger couldn't find anyone to help him at the customer service desk, so he took matters into his own hands, and a woman in Kentucky allegedly gave a toddler a tattoo.
