    Wednesday, Sep 2 - Pattaya Thailand

    About 5,000 U.S. sailors are getting ready to pull into Thailand for some well-earned shore leave after spending roughly 200 days at sea. That’s a long time to be stuck on a ship, so you can probably imagine what the first night off might look like. Thai authorities, apparently, have already imagined it too. They’re warning the sailors about prostitution and reminding them that the laws still apply once they step off the ship. Something tells me those warnings are going to be received with the same enthusiasm as a mandatory safety meeting. A new study has been looking at what people actually find appealing when it comes to a woman’s chest, and apparently the answer isn't simply “bigger is better.” Researchers found that size isn’t necessarily the biggest factor when it comes to attractiveness. Instead, things like the way the volume is distributed and overall symmetry can play a bigger role. So apparently there’s more science involved here than the average guy sitting on a barstool would have you believe. Meanwhile, a registered sex offender named Calese Crowder has reportedly been arrested again. Crowder has a history of arrests in California involving allegations that he approached women and sniffed their buttocks. Yes, you read that correctly. This is apparently something authorities have dealt with before, and now he has found himself in trouble with the law once again. Sean Ono Lennon and his girlfriend, Charlotte Kemp Muhl, also had some much happier news to share. The couple announced the birth of their first child on social media last night. They named their son Aurelius, making him the first grandchild of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Sean even referenced his famous father with the announcement, calling the baby a “Beautiful Boy,” which is about as perfect a Beatles connection as you could possibly make. And finally, a woman on TikTok claims her stomach was absolutely wrecked after consuming ground-up cockroaches, which she says can supposedly turn up in things like ground coffee and processed foods. The internet, naturally, has responded with equal parts horror and curiosity. So if you were already suspicious of what might be hiding in your food, congratulations: you now have another thing to think about while eating breakfast.

    Tuesday, Sep 1 - No Potty Humor Challenge

    The boys take on a challenge that may be completely impossible: Ethan dares Lou and Dave to make it through an entire hour of the show without mentioning sex, body parts or potty humor. Naturally, Lou and Dave accept the challenge, despite the fact that those three subjects are basically the foundation of morning radio. The results were…well, let's just say there were some surprises along the way. Things got a little more physical in Waterbury, where police dealt with a bizarre bat-versus-stick fight that ended with four people being arrested. We're not entirely sure how an argument escalated to the point where bats and sticks became involved, but apparently somebody decided this was the appropriate way to settle their differences. Meanwhile, a Virginia doctor had an absolutely terrifying experience at home after waking up to discover a bat trying to get into her mouth. Yes, you read that correctly. She was sleeping peacefully when the flying mammal apparently decided her face was the place to be. It's one of those stories that makes you immediately start wondering whether your bedroom is actually secure. A TikTok video is also making the rounds after a customer confronted a Subway employee over an unexpected potential upcharge. The customer was apparently told there would be an extra charge just to toast his bread, which led to a confrontation that was captured on video and posted online. Because apparently even getting a sandwich toasted can become a full-blown dispute these days. And finally, Duane "Keffe D" Davis was convicted in the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur. Davis wasn't accused of being the gunman, but prosecutors argued that he helped orchestrate the shooting. The man Davis identified as the actual shooter died in 1998. Davis now faces the possibility of spending the rest of his life behind bars.

    Monday, Aug 31 - Faze Adapt

    The boys get into a bizarre story out of Indiana, where a 300-pound lioness and her cub may potentially be roaming somewhere in the middle of the state. Nothing says "normal Monday morning" quite like wondering whether you need to keep an eye out for a lion while driving to work. There's also a new trend involving livestreamers who are heading into places like Alaska where wild grizzly bears are known to be nearby and then, apparently, deciding the best way to make content is to run past them while filming themselves. Because nothing says "I want followers" quite like risking your life for a few thousand views. Meanwhile, a petting zoo in North Carolina is dealing with a serious health situation after four baby goats tested positive for rabies. The situation has involved multiple counties because both children and adults had contact with the goats, meaning health officials have had to determine who may have been exposed and what follow-up treatment might be necessary. Cute little goats are one thing, but apparently they can also turn into a major public health headache. Music fans also have something to look forward to, as Scott Weiland's 2009 live album is finally getting a proper release on CD and streaming services. Scott Weiland Live is scheduled to arrive October 23rd, giving Stone Temple Pilots and Weiland fans another chance to hear the late singer's live performances. In honor of National Matchmaking Day, the boys also break out the Dealbreaker Game, putting some supposedly perfect potential partners through some very questionable scenarios to see what would make listeners say, "Absolutely not." And finally, heavy metal fans have another reason to defend their musical preferences. Researchers studying attendees at a heavy metal festival in Germany found a correlation between listening to live metal music and having a higher tolerance for pain. So apparently getting crushed against the barricade while listening to extremely loud music might actually be preparing you for something.

    Friday, Aug 28 - Weeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!

    The boys get into a debate about which states hate other states the most, and apparently state rivalries are alive and well. A new study claims Connecticut's biggest state beef is with New Jersey, while New Jersey has somehow decided that its own least favorite state is... New Jersey. It's hard to argue with that level of self-awareness. New Milford Mayor Pete Bass joins the guys in the studio for a visit, bringing some local politics and conversation into the mix. Meanwhile, Lou admits that he absolutely loves riding the swings at local carnivals, but there's one major problem: he doesn't completely trust the people responsible for maintaining the rides. Apparently, enjoying the sensation of being launched into the sky is much easier when you're not thinking about whether someone remembered to tighten every bolt. There was also a bizarre traffic situation in Southern California on Tuesday after pallets loaded with cheese balls somehow ended up scattered all over a freeway. The snack-related disaster caused traffic delays, but apparently some drivers saw the mess as an opportunity rather than an inconvenience. Several motorists actually stopped their vehicles to scoop up tubs of cheese balls that had managed to survive the crash without breaking open. Nothing says "road safety" quite like pulling over on a freeway to grab free snacks. And finally, we're getting into the never-ending debate over Panda Express and whether it should be considered authentic Chinese food. There are plenty of people who argue that the fast-food chain doesn't represent traditional Chinese cuisine, but apparently the company's CEO isn't losing any sleep over the criticism. He says he "takes no offense" to people making that argument. And honestly, that's probably the correct response when you're selling orange chicken by the bucket.

    Thursday, Aug 27 - Who is Going to Die Next?

    The boys catch up with Danbury Mayor Roberto Alves for his regular weekly appearance, where they cover what's happening around the city and, as always, probably manage to sneak in a few questions that weren't exactly on the official agenda. Meanwhile, a Brookfield corn maze is getting ready to pay tribute to none other than Dolly Parton, because apparently there is no better combination than corn, country music and Dolly. A woman on TikTok has also sparked a pretty funny debate after posting a photo of her brand-new bow tattoo and asking the internet a very important question: does it actually look like a bow, or does it accidentally resemble a man's nether region? Once the internet gets involved in something like that, you already know the comments are going to be brutal. People are also having some fun with a post breaking down the six possible ways you can apparently dress for bed: pants and a shirt, underwear and a shirt, just underwear, just a shirt, just pants, or absolutely nothing. Apparently, option number four — wearing nothing but a shirt — has become the controversial choice. There's something about the idea of sleeping in just a shirt that really seems to bother people, although I'm guessing plenty of people listening right now are guilty of it. And finally, the CEO of Flock Safety made an appearance on Fox News to call for what he described as a national "compromise" between privacy and public safety. His comments come as the company faces increasing criticism over its use of AI-powered surveillance technology and license-plate tracking. The debate continues over how much information communities should be collecting in the name of keeping people safe, and where we should draw the line when it comes to privacy.

    Wednesday, Aug 26 - Ethan is Back!

    The boys swap some stories about high school hazing and the ridiculous things students have been put through over the years. Meteorologist Patrick Osborn from WABI 5 in Maine also gave viewers something to talk about when he completely lost it during Sunday morning’s broadcast. An off-screen distraction apparently caught him at just the right moment, and despite his best efforts to keep things professional, he could not hold it together. A baker is also trying to convince people that making a loaf of sourdough bread isn't nearly as time-consuming as it sounds. Kate Freebairn says you're really only working with the dough for a few minutes at a time, even though the entire process takes roughly three days. So technically, she's not wrong, but I'm pretty sure most people hear "three days" and immediately decide they're buying bread at the grocery store. Police in Georgia recently turned to Facebook to identify a man who found $30 on the ground inside a Walmart and apparently decided that returning it wasn't his first priority. Authorities referred to him as a "suspect," which sounds pretty serious for 30 bucks. The man eventually returned the money, and the person who lost it decided not to press charges. Meanwhile, a popular New Jersey beach was forced to close the water after dozens of syringes washed up along the shoreline. The beach itself remained open, but lifeguards strongly encouraged people to stay out of the water. That's probably one of those announcements that makes you rethink your entire beach day. And finally, freshmen at Bishop Kelley High School in Tulsa, Oklahoma, are getting a very awkward welcome to high school. On the first day of classes, seniors line the parking lot and make incoming freshmen give their mom, dad or grandparent a goodbye kiss before entering the building. Somehow, the parents seem to absolutely love it, while I imagine the freshmen are already wondering if transferring schools is an option.

    Tuesday, Aug 25 - Just Store it in the Oven

    What Disney character best represents your favorite football team? The boys have the answers, and somehow, we think some of these comparisons are going to hit a little too close to home. New York also gets some good news when it comes to teen drivers, landing among the safest states in the country for young people behind the wheel. The boys also dive into your latest TV and movie recommendations, including Lanterns, The Substance, Monsters of God, From, Hard Knocks, and Westies. There’s a little bit of everything in that lineup, so expect some strong opinions, questionable reviews, and probably a few arguments over what everyone should actually be watching. A new study also takes a look at Millennials and their finances, and apparently, a lot of them may be putting on a better financial performance than reality would suggest. The study found that many Millennials are spending their money on vacations, trips, dining, and experiences instead of putting as much toward savings. Basically, some people are living like they have their financial lives completely figured out while their bank accounts may have a very different story to tell. And finally, we have one of those stories that sounds like it was written for a sitcom. A 24-year-old Florida man was arrested after allegedly destroying a Flock camera at an intersection. The problem? He apparently didn't know the camera was fake. Police had installed the fake device after the actual cameras at that location had recently been stolen. So, technically, he destroyed a fake camera while apparently thinking he was taking out the real thing. That's a pretty impressive amount of confidence for someone who didn't bother checking what he was destroying.

    Friday, Aug 21 - Gooch Side Effects

    The boys reveal Connecticut and New York’s favorite sandwiches, and naturally, we have some thoughts about the results. A daughter recently asked her mom what her favorite part of having kids was, and the answer from her mom and aunt completely caught her off guard. Their response? “When you all left for college.” Honestly, that is either brutally honest or the greatest endorsement of empty nesting we've ever heard. Police say a man known as “Bluntman” was allegedly planning to distribute a large amount of marijuana at the Gathering of the Juggalos festival. The nickname alone probably should have raised some questions, but apparently things got even more obvious when he received a Cameo message from ICP’s Violent J. Dr. Eric Davis, a scientist who previously worked with the Pentagon’s UFO program, claims he has seen evidence of four alleged alien bodies. So naturally, we're going to discuss whether we're finally getting closer to the truth about extraterrestrial life or whether this whole thing is getting stranger by the day. AC/DC fans in St. Louis may have just won the rock-and-roll lottery. The Pretty Reckless had to drop out of the opening slot for the band's September 8 show, and the replacement is pretty ridiculous: Foo Fighters. That's one way to upgrade your opening act. And finally, you probably say “yum” when you eat a cookie, but Harrison Ford and Cookie Monster took things to another level. The two teamed up to eat cookies for Sesame Street, and somehow the combination caused them to break into a very familiar theme song.

    Thursday, Aug 20 - Make All the Tennis Players do Coke

    Connecticut is using a pretty bizarre combination of barbed wire, doughnut grease and tampons soaked in raspberry extract to figure out exactly how many black bears are roaming around the state. Meanwhile, Connecticut billionaire Ray Dalio is apparently still raving about his recent birthday celebration in Ibiza, Spain. Wildlife experts are also studying what appears to be a growing dolphin population situation in Connecticut. It’s National Radio Day, so naturally the guys take a quick victory lap and remind everyone why radio is still awesome. A teacher in Houston named Valecia is going viral after creating a “fart corner” in her classroom, giving her students an official place to go when nature calls. A marketing director asked what it would take to get Gen Xers back to concerts, and comedian Dan Regan came through with what might be the perfect list of demands. A woman in Philadelphia also shared a terrifying story about encountering a man who police say threatened and chased six people in about 30 minutes while wearing a Chucky-style mask. Netflix is being sued over K-pop Demon Hunters by the Christian metal band Demon Hunter, which has been around for decades. The band claims the movie infringes on its trademark and constitutes unfair competition. One of the greatest frontmen in rock history, Robert Plant, turns 78 today, and we're taking a look back at his legendary career. And finally, there’s a documentary coming out next month about comedian Dane Cook's brother and former business manager, who allegedly stole $12 million from him, hid the money in jars of spaghetti sauce and then disappeared. The documentary is called “Funny Money.”
