makes perfect and they tell me nobody's perfect and then I stop practicing.
Next week I'm going to have an MRI to find out whether or not I have claustrophobia.
Sometimes when I'm over someone's house and no one's in the kitchen I like to write things on that to do this they have on their refrigerator.
Memorize distances to all other planets.
Adopt baby then sell on black market.
You ever notice when a house burns down the only thing left standing is a fireplace in the chimney?
How's that for evidence?
I went down the numbers just to your soul to your birth and I would stand inside my head and hold the hand of death.
You don't know how far I'd go because this pressure's weak and you don't know how much I hate or how much I can dare just to reach you, just to reach you.
Oh, don't reach you.
Come to my window.
Come to my window, I'll be home soon.
Keeping my eyes open I cannot afford the sleep.
Giving away promises I know that I can't keep.
Nothing feels a blackness that has seemed to me too much.
I need you with my blood I am forsaking all the rest, just to reach you, just to reach you.
Come to my window, I'll be home soon.
Come to my window, I'll be home soon.
Come to my window, I'll be home soon.
It's 6.09 at WRNGM Radio.

That says it on this screen I knew what day it was.
May 2, Saturday, May 4, Star Wars Day, May 4 to be with you.
I think we have to check with Brett Hoppen over at Marcus, but I believe that they are doing a big Star Wars thing.
I got to check with them.
They're doing something Star Wars, I know that.
Looks like a cloudy day today, chance of showers and thunderstorms with hot airs 60.
The hours and thunderstorms tonight loads around 55 becoming sunny tomorrow with a hot air 55.

We've got the Brewers not playing today, but they will be in Chicago to take on the Cubs.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday here on WRN 1245 each day.

The Brewers in Chicago had wriggly to take on the Cubs and that should be fun.
Three days in a row.
All right.
Coming up at the 7 o'clock hour this morning, we have six district aldermen.
Sandy Widers going to be here.
She's got a whole list of things to talk about.
So here with Sandy has to say, Sandy Wider.
She's your sixth district aldermen here in Racine and that little bit of history on Sandy.
I'm going to get a little bit history when she started where she grew up on this kind of stuff.
I like to find out about people's history because it's always fun to find out where people came from.
You know, you find out a lot about people.
How they became what they became just by their upbringing.
You know, and I watched Dateline a lot in 2020.
They always do a little backstory on the person who was either the victim or the silent.
And it's always interesting to see their background.
And you know how they got to where they got to like Jeffrey Dahmer.
They may hear his background hurting animals and he's a little kid.
So you know where he came from.
You know where that got to.
But a lot of these, you know, killers.
I see a Dateline of bad parents and bad upbringing and just a horrible life.
And that's they, you know, had nothing to live for.
So they went out and did naughty things.
Anyway, it's 611 WRGN radio.
Well, let's, let's see what's coming up in the month of May.
Here are some things to look forward to this month in sports.
We've got the NBA and NHL playoffs continuing.

One of the Belmont Stakes.
Do they come up this month?
The PGA championship golf starts May 16th.
The French Open in tennis starts on the 20th and the Indianapolis 500 is made.

I always, I always love the Indian 500.
It movies.

King them in the planet of the apes arrives a week later along with the Amy Winehouse bio pick back to black.
John Krasinski is kids movie if it's theaters on the 17th of this month.

He's become a really big powerful director in Hollywood.
But it was on the office.
The new Garfield movie with Chris Pratt opens up wide on May 24th along with, am I saying this right?
Furiosa, a Mad Max saga on the same day.
Finally, we've got the big holidays coming up this month.
Cinco de Mayo is this Sunday.
Mother's Day on the 12th.
You better circle that one with two red pens.
And Memorial Day is coming up on the 27th.
Also Star Wars Day.
We mentioned this Saturday May 4th.
May the 4th.
Be with you.
Teacher Appreciation Day is on this 7th.
You know, teacher Appreciation Day should be all year long.
You know, I could picture every single one of my teachers in my head.
There's not one teacher.
I can't picture.
You tell me the grade and I'll tell you every teacher I had in that grade.
And that's, that's how important they were to me.
I learned so much from all my teachers.
I was very fortunate to have a good batch.
There's only one teacher that didn't get along with.
I got along with her.
She didn't get along with me.
Miss Bush, my 7th grade English teacher.
It's the only time in my life I got a D on my report cards.
Of course, my mother wanted to run down there and find out what was going on.
And Miss Bush said, your son and I have a personality conflict.
And 7th grade, I was 12 years old.
13, 12 years old.
I was at a personality conflict.
I never had it with any one of my teachers.
In all the years, I went to school.
What Miss Bush and I had a personality conflict.
So she said, I didn't have any with her.
And she just said she couldn't get along with me.
And my mother said, okay.
Now instead of taking me out of the class,
maybe doing all the class, she left me there.
Now Miss Bush, that year,
if you want to know what Miss Bush looked like,
I know what you're picturing.
Some old woman with a shawl, grey white hair,
glasses on the tip of her nose,
and long dress with big black orthopedic shoes.
Is that what you were thinking of when I think of Miss Bush?
Well, not think of this.
In the teacher production, they do each year.
She played Daisy May.
That's what she looked like.
She will have a short shirt and the hot pants.
And she was Daisy May.
So she was hardly that woman I described the first time.
But we had a personality conflict.
So she said, so teacher appreciation day.
And I still appreciate Miss Bush,
wherever she may be, is on the seventh.
National eat what you want day.
There's my favorite holiday on the 11th.
Of course, that's really what you want day is every day for me.
National mimosa day.
That's the drink, by the way.
National mimosa day on the 16th.
Armed forces day on the 18th.
National hamburger day.
So my birthday, May 28th.
All right, I'll get hamburger on that day.
How's that?
So those are the big days coming up in the month of May.
Now, I don't know if you saw this.
I think we may have mentioned this, the winner of this month's
$1.3 billion dollar powerball jackpot came forward.
If there's anybody more deserving, I don't know who.
Because this guy, he was a tiny guy.
I'm not tiny by my I'm six foot three.
So he looks small to me.
And he looked a little sickly.
And the reason is turns out he's a 46 year old immigrant
from Laos who's been battling cancer for the past eight years.
He said he is now so relieved to know that when the worst happens,
and it will, his family is going to be taken care of.
And he'll use the money to get medical care for himself for his last days,
or whatever, how long he is left.
I was tearied when I heard this guy talk.
Finally, there's somebody who's not going to waste the money on frivolous things.
He's taking care of his family because he knows he doesn't have much time left.
But good for him.
Good for him for that's what he wants to use the money for.
Hmm.
Get tearied.
Think about it.
It's pretty weird when we vacation in 2024.
Our top concern is what's happening everywhere else, but where we are.
A new poll found the number one perfect hotel must have fast Wi-Fi.
70% of travelers said it's essential to them enjoying their trip.
So the top 10 things for to make a perfect hotel Wi-Fi number one fast Wi-Fi.
A king size bed, a smart TV, attractions nearby, a restaurant in the building,
etc.
Yeah, like you're really going to use that online check in and check out a personal hot tub,
a personal bathtub.
Yeah, that community bathtub over at the Ritz hotel, but a damper on things at a spa.
Now, one reason they say we want good Wi-Fi is the check in on work.
One of four people said they do work on vacation to save their vacation days.
Notice what's not on the list.
Out of all the must things for a perfect hotel.
Cleanliness.
Never made the list.
We don't care.
I can't.
It's filthy.
I don't care if there are bed bugs.
I don't care if the locks don't work.
The windows are broken.
Are there conditions?
Doesn't work.
Does it have fast Wi-Fi?
That's all I want to know.
Hero news.
What do you hear this?
This happened earlier this month.
A school bus driver.
Actually, I would be.
Well, probably April.
A school bus driver here in Wisconsin had a medical issue and passed out behind the wheel,
but an eighth grader named AC Holland immediately took charge.
He got her foot off the gas, pulled the bus over called 911.
So everyone, including the passengers on the bus, were safe.
He saved them all, including the bus driver.
Now, she was awake by the time help got there.
This kid is 12 years old, 12 or 13.
Well, eighth grader.
Well, 13 years old.
He took charge and parked the bus.
So no one would get hurt.
That's a hero.
This kid here.
AC Holland from Wisconsin.
Doesn't say we're in Wisconsin.
I got to look back and look that one up.
And finally this hour, this break here, a fun fact.
Walt Disney invented more than Mickey Mouse.
We know he did Mickey Mouse goofy, Pluto, all those.
He did invent enclosed garbage cans to keep Disneyland from smelling bad.
Until that point, public trash cans, which is wire mesh,
been blocking the garbage smell.
But Disney, he fixed that up with an enclosed garbage fail.
And every time you have a garbage fail, this enclosed.
Thank Walt Disney for that.

I'm too soon.
But I've wanted much further today than I should,
and I can't seem to find my way back to the one.
So help me if you can.
I've got to get back to the house.
It's important by one.
You'd be surprised there's so much to be done.
Count all the bees in the height.
Chase all the clouds from the skies.
Chase the clouds up.
Back to the days of Christ, above and beyond.
When either door doesn't know what to do,
got a honey just stuck on his nose.
He can't tell me I'm scared.
I've been advice from you.
No one knows where he goes.
So I set him to ask of the other bees there,
how to loosen a jar from the nose of our band.
Help me if you can.
I've got to get back to the house.
It's important by one.
You'd be surprised there's so much to be done.
Count all the bees in the height.
Chase all the clouds from the skies.
Back to the days of Christ, above and beyond.
You know, Winnie the Pooh is in the public domain now,
not this movie last year called Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey,
a horror movie starring Winnie the Pooh and all of the characters.

I have never seen anyone.
I've never been able to see it.
So I've got to talk.
Nell Menos is going to be in next week.
And we're going to talk about all the new several movies.
I'm going to ask her if she saw that movie.
Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey.
I'm going to ask her if she saw that movie last year called Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey

We're going to talk about all the new series.
I have a question for you.
You know, I've got a question.
I want to ask you a question.
We're going to talk about all the new series.
I have to ask you a question.
Whispered boy, welcome home.
Believe me if you can.
I finally come back to the house.
I'm too caught about one.
And what do you know?
There's so much to be done.
Count all the bids in the house.
And by the way, I guess Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey.
This is great business.
It's actually Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey too coming out.
I'm going to ask no man.
Oh, she ever saw that.
I'm in a horror movie based on that.
And by the way, a lot of those characters now like those snow white sleeping beauty are falling into the public domain.
So people will be able to do whatever they want with those characters.
And that can't be good.
Now, the original characters, the Disney, you know, made up for their movies.
Even the hunchback of Notre Dame, Pocahontas, these are all characters that are in the public domain.
And we can do it.
I want with them.
Hercules.
And now we need to poo Mickey Mouse is in the public domain.
Now, not the Mickey Mouse.
You see in, you know, the current Mickey Mouse.
You see, you know, on whatever in cartoons.
The original Mickey Mouse from Steamboat Willie is in the public domain.
So anybody can draw that mouse now and make you cartoon out of it.
It's got to be the original Mickey Mouse.
The one that looked like a rodent.
Have you seen that one?
Yeah, look at your real.
Sorry, you should be stepping on a mouse trap.
It didn't look like the friendly Mickey Mouse we see today.

Here's something I'm sorry I found out.
You know, I'm going to tell you this.
But once I tell you, I cannot un-tell you.
Movie credits say no animals were harmed during filming that only means intentional harm on camera.
That's what that means.
It's intentional.
Doesn't mean that animals weren't heard or died accidentally on set.
I always thought that meant not one animal ever got hurt during the making of this movie.
Now I find out that's not what it means.
I told you.
Once I tell you, I can't un-tell you.

Tell that to LeBron James.
Hey LeBron, school that 90 million brush up on your biology.
They're hypocrites.
If the NBA weren't hypocrites and they really wanted to promote staying in school,
at the old star game, instead of a slam dunk contest, hold a spelling bee for the player.
Be more fun to watch, I guarantee.
Be more fun to watch.
A basketball player dunking again or step on Marbury trying to spell receipt.
Or Wednesday or one of those tricky words.
I know what you're saying.
You're the hypocrite.
You can't spell receipt or Wednesday.
And I'm like, yeah, but I'm going to tell him to stay in school.
I feel it in my finger.
I feel it in my toe.
The love is all around me.
And so the feeling grows.
It's written on the wind.
It's everywhere I go.
Oh, yes it is.
So if you really love me,
come on and let it show.
You know I love you, I always will.
My mind's lit up by the way that I feel.
There's no beginning, there'll be no end.

A lawyer found it.

About two million years ago, there was a species of rodents that were as big as a hippopotamus.
Whoa.
Well, that's incentive trap for that behind the refrigerator.
A famous Canadian hunter named Francis Wharton shot a deer in the late 1960s and even
have a teeth.

All right.
What do you do to wake yourself up when you've got low energy?
The new survey found the top three things are drinking coffee, going for a walk, drinking

Almost as much as sending a kid through college, a study found pets cost an average of $111
a month.
And since pets live an average of 10 years, that's $13,320 total, well, maybe not as much
as a kid going to college.
But you know what, that 13,000 worth every single penny I would pay double to take care of
my animals.
Oh, I, there's, that's not a lot of money to take care of somebody you love of family
remembered.
A list of annoying things about TV.
All right.
Here's the list.
We'll wait from food and drinks without touching them.
That happens all the time.
I used to watch the bachelor.
They sat down for this dinner like a candlelight dinner just before he, you know, kicked someone
off the show.
We sat down with the candlelight dinner.
They never touched the food.
They never ate them.
I found it later on the staff, you know, the crew will eat the food.
But they made this beautiful dinner and they never touched it.
You know why?
It's not pleasant watching somebody chew.
All right.
Nobody going to the bathroom.
You never see that on TV.
Although you have seen it on TV a few times in recent years, but you don't see them.
Obviously, you just know they went to the bathroom.
What was the first TV show ever to show a toilet bowl?
Do you know what the first TV show was?
What do you think was friends sign filled all in the family?
Nope.
It was leave it to beaver.
Leave it to beaver.
Wally and Beaver were in the bathroom and you got to see the toilet bowl in the background
first show ever to do it.
Now, you know, let's see here.
How about precaps?
When you sit down to watch a show, why do the first several minutes have to be a montage
of scenes you're about to watch?
I find it's just the opposite.
I find it.
I don't like when I'm watching like a date line or 20, especially 2020, they come back
from the commercial break and they review the entire show up to that point every single
time.
And it's really, you know, paying the butt to have to sit through that every time.
All right.
What else I got for you here?
Recaps.
We're without the recap, everything.
All right.
Let's see here.
I'm a list of people who are plucked from obscurity become celebrities.
Not everybody was born famous.
You know, some people actually had to work at it.
Jennifer Lawrence discovered as a 14 year old while vacationing in New York City with
her family.
A scout for a modeling company spotted her by the end of the summer.
She was cast in a TV pilot.
That had a sound like a scam, though.
You know, then it's not like it might have been a scam.
Somebody come and say, Hey, I'm going to make you a star.
Just give me a couple of thousand dollars.
Chris Pratt is a new movie coming out.
I think Garfield.
He was discovered by Tommy Chong's daughter, Ray Don Chong, while waiting tables at the
Bubba Gump shrimp company.
And Charlie's Theron was struggling to pay the rent in one day at a bank.
She was going nuts on a teller because she refused to cash her out of state check.
The guy gave her his card.
He was a talent manager and the rest is history.
You never know.
What are two questions you should ask in a job interview and it has nothing to do with
money.
What the company will look like in a year because it makes it seem like you care about
what they do and you have plans to stay around.
And what do I need to accomplish in my first three months because it plans the idea that
you could make a big impact immediately.
Yeah.
People have a vacation of money.
Well, don't talk about that.
A new study came up, by the way, you should talk about that.
When I went to work at this radio station, Atlanta, WSB, big radio station.
I was, I was on my lunch break from a station.
I worked at and right here this and I went down to WSB to take a tour.
And they said, how'd you like to work for us?
We know you're working at that station down the block, but I'd like to work for us.
Yeah.
That was like in my early 20s working at the biggest state, one of the biggest stations
in America.
Sure.
I said, yeah, I'll do that.
So I went in there and it was so excited.
I was about to say yes to anything like when Kramer on Seinfeld was offered free latte
and life for life plus.
And he said, I'll take it.
It was about to get like $100,000 anyway, they said, you come to work for us.
It's a five day work week, not like where you are where you work six days a week.
It's a five day work week.
And they said, I'll take it.
I didn't know when I took it.
The five days were Wednesday through Sunday.
So maybe you should ask, I didn't know.
I thought five day work week Monday through Friday.
Nope.
Wednesday through Sunday.
Oh, when I found that out, I already signed the agreement papers and I took the job.
Out of that, not ask, $6.49, WRJN coming up, coming up in a few minutes at seven o'clock,
six district aldermen.
Sandy Widers going to be here.
Should be a lot of fun.
I'm going to be this way.
Your jobs are junky proof.
Your life's going to go away.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
When it hasn't been your day, we came up.
Don't even know me.
But I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
Still in bed, I didn't work again at eight.
I burned your breakfast so far, things are going great.
You're my little walk, you let me days like these.
I want you here to tell you where the world's from.
You tell your knees.
I'll be there for you.
When the rain starts to fall.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
Because you're there for me too.
I know you could ever know me.
No one could ever see me.
So tell me what you know.
It's like you're there for me.
Someone to face me, they will make you go in the mess room.
So what I will tell you, you know I won't stop asking you.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
When it hasn't been your day, you reap the most.
You're looking for it.
I'll be there for you.
When the rain starts to fall.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
Because you're there for me too.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
I'll be there for you.
Because you're there for me too.
Hey, good morning.
It's 653WRGN.
Radio, hometown, radio, refreshed.
99.9 FM, 98.1 FM.
And the legendary 1,400 AM, which has been like that since 1926.
So we're coming up to our 100th anniversary in two years, 100 years.
Wow.
There are probably people who were that old in recene that could remember
when we first went on the air.
I'm going to get ahold of those people fast.
I've never known how long they're going to be around.
Coming up next week, our series continues our WRGN Historical Marker series.
We get the history of this radio station for the last 98 years at this point.
And Chris Morales is going to be our guest.
He was here.
He's here now as our station manager.
He was here when he was a teenager back in the 70s.
We worked for Jim Sorenson, who we had on the air a few weeks ago.
So we're going to get a little rundown of what it was like when he was a teenager here.
And now he's an old man.
We'll get a rundown on that.
That's coming up.
All right.
New study came up with a bunch of stats when Americans are driving angry.
They analyze more than 65,000 Instagram posts that use the hashtag road rage.
Here they are.
Road rage peaks around 6 p.m. at night.
And it's the second worst at 5 p.m.
It's more road rage in the month of August than any of the month of the year.
July is 2nd April and May are the least.
You never know it.
I'll talk about that in just a moment.
Friday, the most road rage of any day Sunday the least.
And Hawaii has more road rage than any other state by far.
Hawaii that their own mellowed out with those flower shirts.
California is second.
New York is third.
New York is third.
We used to drive around Manhattan.
Let me tell you something.
I told you the story yesterday.
My dad.
We're driving him in hat.
That was a teenager.
I went to work with him one day.
And we're driving around Manhattan.
He was checking some jobs and a cab driver cut him off.
And he took the ice pop.
He was eating it through to the cap.
Right.
It smashed the window.
The side window of the cab with the ice pop.
Good move dad.
According to a survey, the most popular mom isms.
That mom shoes on their kids are because I said so.
Don't worry.
Everything will be okay.
And you'll always be my baby.
We have a comic.
We do the comedy bit stop and bottom of the hour.
He did want to mom isms.
I got to find that and play it for you.
It's really funny.
It's really good.
Anyway, I'll do that.
I meant to tell you this when we're talking about the road rage.
When I come in in the morning, it's like a quarter after five.
And I'm driving on the road.
Coming down 16th street invariably.
There's always somebody who's on my bumper.
They're always on my bumper with their lights right against my car.
And you can see they're impatient because they didn't plan and they're late for work.
And they try to pass me.
But on 16th street, you can actually park on the street.
So what they'll do is they'll try to pass me.
And since it's dark, they'll drive up.
And they'll realize there's a car in that lane.
They'll drive up to jam on the brakes.
Now they're angry because they didn't get by me.
And now they're like revving your engine behind me.
I'm going 30 miles an hour because that's a speed limit.
And I always follow the law.
And they were impatient.
And then they finally get around you when I make the left turn on to laythrip.
And they're like, yeah, I'm running in the car just to show me their ticked off.
You know, this all can be avoided if you just leave five minutes earlier in the morning.
And you get up five minutes early.
You don't goof off in the house.
Watch TV.
That's why TV is no good for you.
Watch TV in the morning.
You should never do that.
Okay.
Now I get that out of my system.
According to your study, when you smile in a picture, make sure you look an average of a year older than you really are.
Hmm.
I know.
You know, I do a frown either.
But if you look surprised in a photo, it shapes off two years.
Yeah, I think it does.
If you could eat something every day without suffering any consequences, what would it be?
All right.
These are the top answers at a new poll.
Pizza, burgers, ice cream, Mexican food, chocolate, carbs, fries, donuts, cakes and chips.
I'm going to add chocolate, putting a little Debbie cakes to that.
Now, obviously, he said, well, you can't eat that every day.
Remember the premise though.
You can do it every day with no consequences.
Okay.
That's the trick here.
Wouldn't that be great to eat everything whenever you feel like it and you'd never gain an ounce?
Your teeth wouldn't fall out from all the sweets.
Wouldn't that just be great?
All right.
Here's a fun fact for you.
Kind of odd, but true.
Every word about your Social Security number getting out of hand and somebody getting their holds on their hands on it.
The most abused Social Security number ever was used in fraud at least 40,000 different times.
It belonged to a Secretary at a wallet company back in 1938.
Social Security card to a new and the Secretary's boss wanted people to see, you know, how they looked in a wallet.
So he took hers.
So every one of the wallets came out with a sample Social Security card inside with her number on it.
We used to have a radio lotto machine here.
We used to bring out on broadcast to the State Fair and everything.
This is back in the 90s and every time you played the game, you had to put your Social Security number in there.
I can't believe people did it.
I would never do it.
All right.
Six District Aldermen, Sandy Weider is here.
She's in studio now and she will be talking to us.
We'll have a conversation with her in just a moment at WWWRJ.
