🎙️ DaWack in da Morning “The River of Wack” 📅 Friday, August 28, 2026 It’s Friday! We survived another week, productivity officially checked out sometime Wednesday, and Zack Da Wack is back to send you into the weekend with another trip down The River of Wack! 🎉 Holiday Roundup We celebrate some of August 28th’s finest—and strangest—holidays: National Bow Tie Day • National Cherry Turnover Day • National Red Wine Day • Crackers Over the Keyboard Day • National Power Rangers Day • Race Your Mouse Around the Icons Day • Radio Commercials Day • International Read Comics in Public Day • Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 🐾❤️ 🕯️ Remembering Those We Lost Remembering notable figures who passed away on August 28, including Chadwick Boseman, John Huston, Robert Shaw, Anissa Jones, Juan Gabriel, Mr. Fuji, and Frederick Law Olmsted. 📜 This Day in History August 28th gave us plenty of history, including: Scientific American publishing its first issue, Pepsi-Cola getting its name, the formation of Toyota Motor Corporation, the tragic murder of Emmett Till, Strom Thurmond’s marathon filibuster, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech, unrest surrounding the 1968 Democratic National Convention, the Ramstein Air Show disaster, and the evacuation of New Orleans ahead of Hurricane Katrina. 🎸 This Day in Music We travel through August 28th music history with Bob Dylan, The Beatles, Tammy Wynette, Alice Cooper, The Jacksons, Kylie Minogue, Billy Joel and the spectacular brotherly meltdown of Oasis. And yes—Billy Joel’s River of Dreams gives us a pretty good excuse for today’s episode title. 📰 DaWack’s Stupid News Reality once again proves it can out-stupid anything we could make up. 🍕 A three-inch pizza shortage becomes a compensation-worthy crisis. 🐱 Mumbai Metro puts a cat in management as Chief Feline Officer. 💩 An airline passenger creates an in-flight situation nobody wanted. 🤖 A racing robot discovers the importance of BRAKES. 📝 Someone crams 150 words onto a sticky note. 🪼 Florida gets a jellyfish museum. 🥪 And one restaurant customer discovers their sandwich is apparently still ALIVE. Plus, a few more strange headlines proving that Stupid News will never run out of material. 🔮 DaWack’s Friday Horrible-Scopes™ The stars have spoken—and apparently they started drinking early for the weekend. Birthday shout-outs include LeAnn Rimes, Jason Priestley, Jack Black, Shania Twain, Jennifer Coolidge, Daniel Stern, Barbara Bach, Ken Jenkins and Sonny Shroyer. Then all 12 zodiac signs receive the highly inaccurate, legally questionable and completely ridiculous DaWack Horrible-Scope treatment. 🌟 Weekend Cosmic Advice: DO NOT START ANYTHING NEW AFTER 3 PM. Don't answer that email. Don't volunteer for anything. Don't tell your spouse, “I think I can fix that myself.” And whatever happens this weekend... DON’T BUY THE KAYAK! 😂 🎧 DaWack in da Morning 🌐 zackdawack.com 🎙️ Mondays & Fridays
