Quadruplets Laughing at Their Dad Will Make Your Weekend

Jon Prell — Sat, 18 May 2013 01:00:43 +0000

This video may not have any real social significance and it’s certainly not the most news worthy story of the day. However, with everything going on in the world today and on the nightly newscasts, sometimes we just need something to remind us that life is good and humanity can be a beautiful thing. The [...]

Behold, the Greatest Bird Hunter of All Time

Jon Prell — Fri, 17 May 2013 04:45:38 +0000

Every so often you see a video that makes you say, "no way he just did that." Have you ever heard of noodling? Noodling is basically fishing with your bare hands and believe it or not, but some people are very skilled at this. In fact, I think there is some kind of reality show about noodling. What do you call quail hunting with your bare hands?

The State Where People Swear the Most – F@!#ing Ohio!

Jon Prell — Fri, 17 May 2013 01:00:59 +0000

S*#T! There goes another title that Indiana and Kentucky lose out on. According to a new survey, people swear more in Ohio than any other state in the Union, followed by Maryland and New Jersey...well there's a f@!#ing surprise - what no New York? By contrast, the state with the fewest people who swear and the most goody two-shoes is Washington.

The New Pepsi Next Commercials Are Funny in a Smoking Hot Kind of Way

Leslie Morgan — Thu, 16 May 2013 09:00:10 +0000

About 3 weeks ago, Pepsi released the commercials for the new Pepsi Next. The commercials are a series of videos that star Latin heartthrob William Levy. Remember him on Dancing With the Stars? He didn't win but I enjoyed his ChaCha VERY much! ;-) Almost as much as I enjoy these commercials. Why? Because when you mix hot AND funny...OMG...I need a moment! You will too.

Downtown Evansville Traffic Lights Are Maddening

Jon Prell — Wed, 15 May 2013 01:00:59 +0000

At about 10:30 this morning, I had to run a quick errand to the West side. As I was getting in my car in the WKDQ parking lot at 4th and Walnut, an accident had just occurred there and the intersection was blocked. So, I went a different way and was shocked at how long it took me to just to get out of Downtown!

"Could It Be" That Charlie Worsham Is Batman?

Baby Boy — Mon, 13 May 2013 16:54:20 +0000

Charlie Worsham is hitting country music by storm with his new single “Could It Be” but “Could It Be” that he is a country music artist by day and wields a reinforced-black-latex suit by night, protecting Gotham City? He certainly looks like a younger version of Christian Bale. All he has to do is shave [...]

Jon Prell — Sat, 11 May 2013 01:00:12 +0000

We all know that social media and the devices we use for social media rule today's world. Do you think it's possible to profile someone's personality based solely on the media devices and social media sites any one person uses? Well, the folks at Buzzfeed.com believe it is and they have put together a list of what certain devices and sites say about us.

Honey Boo Boo's Mama June Ties the Knot on TLC – Well, Kinda

Townsquare Media — Fri, 10 May 2013 04:12:36 +0000

Did Mama June finally tie the knot with Sugar Bear after nine years? NOPE! They didn’t have a “wedding,” they had a “commitment ceremony,” just with a wedding dress, and a wedding cake, and wedding vows. The… ceremony was held in their Georgia backyard on May 5. Y’all better redneckognize their love is real! For [...]

Eric Cornish — Thu, 09 May 2013 06:00:24 +0000

Charles Ramsey is quite the character, but he’s also quite the human being. He helped Amanda Berry and the two others who were being held captive in a Cleveland home. As quirky as his news interview was, did you really think it wouldn’t be auto-tuned. Come on!

What Is It Really Like To Be Mom?

Jon Prell — Thu, 09 May 2013 01:00:14 +0000

Mother's day is this Sunday and if nothing else, your mom deserves the acknowledgment for all that she does. Last year I posted an article about what being a mom is worth on the open market, which is about $112,000 per year. A mom's work is never done and sometimes...no, most of the time we take that for granted.

Jon Is Frightened Every Morning By Leslie's Bed Head and Finally Calls Her Out

Leslie Morgan — Mon, 06 May 2013 04:14:35 +0000

First of all, I am NOT a morning person and have NEVER been. In the mornings, I get up at the last possible second so that I will still make it to work on time. Doing or even combing my hair is not possible. Luckily, I am on the radio so YOU never have to see me. But poor Jon, with HIS perfect hair, has to see me every morning. And I think he's had enough! ;-)

Jon Prell — Sat, 04 May 2013 13:00:05 +0000

How long has it been since you have seen ‘The Matrix’? One of the great Sci-Fi movies in recent years starring Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne. Some guy got the idea to sit down with his mom and watch the entire movie and then asked her to retell the entire story after they watched it. [...]

Cell Phones Don't Belong in Meetings

Jon Prell — Sat, 04 May 2013 01:00:09 +0000

I spend a lot of time in meetings throughout the week and I am astonished at the number of people who bring their cell phones to these meetings anymore. I have never said anything about this before, but lately I have noticed over the last year that I seem to be the ONLY one who doesn't bring their cell phone into any given meeting.

Willie Nelson Auditions for 'The Hobbit' on Conan

Leslie Morgan — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 15:45:57 +0000

Willie Nelson turns 80 years old TODAY! One of the things I LOVE about Willie is not only his amazing song writing or his no compromise attitude toward his lifestyle, but his sense of humor. The last time he was in Evansville, I was fortunate to see and hear his dry wit first hand.

Recently on Conan, Willie made an audition tape for the role of Gandalf, in the movie 'The Hobbit' for director Peter Jackson. Although, Willie, I'm sure was doing it tongue in cheek while being poked and prodded by Conan and his writers, I think he is PERFECT for the role!!! Take a look...
