Hosts Aaron and Jamie, filling in for John and Gordy, kick off a lively morning chat about the struggle of finding an open coffee shop in Madison before 6 a.m. Joined by producer Dom, they share tales of weather-induced car spins and celebrate Dom's six-month radio milestone. Madison ranks 77th among America's most fun cities, sparking a debate with Milwaukee at 36. The episode dives into listeners' longest-held jobs, spotlighting careers at the University of Wisconsin and in video game design. With a $200 cash contest on the Civic Media app, it's a morning mix of community, caffeine, and cash.
