    Someone Stole My Lunch at Work

    Somebody stole my lunch from the radio station fridge, and I'm not gonna lie… I'm still a little ticked off about it! I brought my lunch to work yesterday, got too busy to eat it, and figured I'd save it for breakfast. Well, somebody apparently had other plans. So I asked Nashville how they would handle a workplace food thief, and let's just say some of your revenge suggestions got WAY out of hand! Plus, we're talking about whether cold showers are worth the misery, Dodge making its return to NASCAR, and a Florida driver going 120 mph because somebody was late for court. And on a more personal note, I talk about why the Nashville Predators' Hockey Fights Cancer Night means so much to me.

    Am I a Jerk for Leaving My Date at a Restaurant?

    A first date goes completely off the rails when a guy returns from the bathroom to find his date talking to another man at the bar. After waiting 15 minutes, he leaves without her. Was he a jerk, or did she have it coming? Battle takes your calls on Am I a Jerk? Plus, the Titans lose another one, but Cam Ward finally gives Nashville a reason for hope. We get into health myths we grew up believing, a strongman dressed as Michael Myers attempting an absolutely insane stunt, and a Florida woman trying to pay for Taco Bell with tampons.

Battle opens up the phone lines, and Nashville has plenty to say! Some listeners love the idea of a weekend Halloween, while others say you can't mess with tradition.Plus, Battle talks about the return of The Melting Pot to downtown Nashville (and why he really wants the Old Spaghetti Factory back), the greatest Halloween candies of all time, Cheerios finally getting resealable bags, a bizarre job walking robot dogs, and a kid who got just ONE gummy bear while trick-or-treating. We've also got Nashville Predators tickets, laughs, and plenty of Wednesday morning chaos!
