National Weatherman’s Day Has to Include Some Wayne Hart [VIDEOS]

On the show this morning, I told you it's 'National Weatherman's Day.' The first thing that came to my mind was my buddy Wayne Hart over at Eyewitness News. I remembered a video I had seen of some promos he made in Louisville while working at WLKY.

You know, we give weathermen a lot of grief, so on this special day, I decided to give Wayne a little more grief - I posted a video of a blooper too!!!

Taylor Swift’s ‘Begin Again’ Turns Into A Bromance Between Jon and Jake Gyllenhaal…Kinda [VIDEO]

Just like Blake Shelton has a bromance with both Adam Levine and Usher, on 'The Voice,'  Jon also has a bromance going with a Jake Gylenhaal look alike in South Carolina. He has never talked to him, just admires him from afar. Isn't that just like Jon?? lol

So, I'm sitting there in my chair at work the other day and suddenly I hear Jon singing Taylor Swift's 'Begin Again.' It was so heartfelt and sweet that it gave me an idea!! Not a GOOD idea, but an idea!! ;-)

Luke Bryan Shares Tri-State Memories and Why He Picked Evansville to Kick Off His Tour – Leslie’s Interview

The first time I met Luke Bryan was six years ago when he came to Evansville to perform at Woody's.

Half Pint Is All Grown Up and Now It’s Time to Say Goodbye

This week will be a hard one! After over 2 years, Half Pint is leaving WKDQ for a grown-up job. We have lived through her engagement, shower, wedding, post wedding drama, family issues, school, 21st b-day and graduation from college. And although we have been hard on her at times both on air and off, we love her dearly and she will be greatly missed. But as with our real children, even our radio daughter must leave the nest. :-(
