Day-O
John, Gordy, and their producer Sam begin with banter about the latest random song to pop into John's head, as the sun rises faster and faster. Amidst talk of today's fake holidays on the National Day Calendar, we hear about Sam's latest project - the holy grail of vintage radios. We find out more wild, wacky topics like the radioactivity of bananas and LSD during Today in History, before we finally get serious, covering Idiocracy. We take aim at Mike Johnson, soft spoken and kind appearing, despite his push for the impending Republican tax cut - the biggest boost the the debt in national history (!). Wrapping up the first hour, we welcome in Lis Johnston, owner of Serenity Pet Spa, and world-class dog groomer. She chats about her unique approach to grooming dogs, and why she and her team are able to provide a real 'spa' experience for pets.
