The Bubba The Love Sponge® Show gets real about what’s next, announcing the big return to mornings on January 5, a new streaming-style studio redesign, and a spike in replays after experimenting with a Late Mornings/Mid-day Shows. Bubba and the crew pull back the curtain on the business side of radio, from donor-driven production to reinventing how the show connects with its Army.

Then, hockey enforcer Steven Oleksy joins in with brutal honesty and battle scars, recounting Stanley Cup memories, fight techniques, and why authentic jerseys tell real locker-room stories. The talk heats up with political breakdowns of Susie Wiles’ explosive Vanity Fair quotes, speculation on Trump’s potential marijuana policy shift, and debate over a disturbing, high-profile, close-to-home crime case that tests the line between justice and mental health.

The show wraps with donation plugs, laughter, and promises of more chaos (and stitches) to come when mornings return. #TheBubbaArmy
