November 6, 2013 Since Kmart announced they will be opening at 6am on Thanksgiving morning, the haters have been coming out of the woodwork criticizing the retail giant for their decision. I can't figure out why.
All November long, WKDQ is giving away $1,000 two times every weekday (just listen all day for your cue to call). Get your hands on some Christmas Cash just in time for holiday shopping! And you can register as many times as you'd like for our ultimate stocking stuffer grand prize of $10,000 to be given away at the end of the month!
October 23, 2013 The 'Christmas Creep', the time of the year we start seeing signs of Christmas, gets earlier and earlier every year. You can start seeing Christmas items on store shelves sometimes as early as mid-summer. You know, that small corner in the back of the store that you see in late July that just keeps expanding out like 'The Blob'.
October 2, 2013 People who rely on tips for a living have my complete respect. My wife and I are good tippers and hate to see servers and other tip dependent workers get hosed. It was brought to my attention the other day that pizza delivery people really get short changed. October is National Pizza Month and one magician is celebrating in a way that will make you smile.
October 1, 2013 As of 12:01am today, the federal government is shut down for the first time since 1996 leaving the American people holding the proverbial bag as usual. Rather than look at which of the roughly 800,000 federal workers who will NOT be getting paychecks, let's look at who WILL get paychecks until this crisis is resolved.
September 18, 2013 This video brings up a very interesting question about making payments and the use of cash. The video features a guy in Australia who goes to City Hall to pay a parking ticket fine. He asks the cashier if they accept cash and she says yes. He says great, reaches into his backpack, pulls out a bank bag full of coins and dumps them on the counter...is he wrong?

August 30, 2013 There is nothing like going to a baseball game and enjoying a hot dog and a cold beer. There is something about beer and baseball that makes it the perfect marriage. I have season tickets for the Otters at Bosse Field and the first thing I do is get a beer before heading to the seats. Concessions at an Evansville Otters game is as reasonable as it gets.
August 29, 2013 I don't know about you but I will NOT buy expensive sunglasses because I will inevitably lose them. So, what happens is my cheap sunglasses inevitably break. LOL
Last weekend, before sitting in the sun watching my son play football all day, I had to get a new pair of shades. I know, you're shocked! ;-) Well, I went into Kohl's, because it was on the way to the football field, and discovered something AMAZING!!
August 22, 2013 Last night during America's Got Talent on NBC, I saw the new Sprint commercial starring a hilarious, corporate type ZOMBIE! Thanks to my friend Ryan O'Bryan, from my sister station, 106.1 KISS FM, and his neverending quest to answer the questions that everybody is asking, I started to wonder....'Who IS that zombie? Or, WAS that zombie? Or, IS?' LOL! Anyway, I found out!
August 19, 2013 School has started around the Tri-State and over the next couple of weeks, the colleges will be starting up as well. My daughter Emily started college last week and our son Baylor goes back to Hanover next week. College has become enormously expensive and graduates are leaving college with more debt than ever.
August 12, 2013 The question of whether college athletes should be paid has been a major topic of discussion over the last couple of years and many are saying the time has come. This has again come to light thanks to the stories surrounding Texas A & M sophomore quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel and whether he was paid for signing memorabilia.
