Dean Linke fills in for DG and brings the heat with his guest lineup.

We bring DG's final show of 2016 (REMEMBER - we'll have guest hosts all next week) as we always do: with Frank Cross (Bill Murray in the movie "Scrooged!") telling each of us that we don't have to restrict our embracing the Christmas spirit to just one day a year!

As DG refills his eggnog, callers answer trivia pertaining to A Christmas Story and sing along to Heatmiser for a trip to the prize closet.

It's the last show before Christmas and DG is in the holiday spirit as he discusses with callers the best Christmas movie with real people, without real people, and with Christmas as a backdrop.

One of the craziest days of the sports year (NCAA/UNC issues, Grayson Allen tripping incident, and HB2 to blame) winds down with your "Free-For-All THURSDAY" calls, as it's our last traditional show before the holidays.

In a flurry of breaking news headlines that pertain to our statewide sports scene, Grayson Allen has been suspended indefinitely by Coach K for intentionally tripping an opposing player in their game against Elon.

In our first hour, DG discusses the breaking news he and the ACC Sports Journal delivered this morning: the details of the revisions made in the NCAA's amended Notice of Allegations issued to the University of North Carolina.

ESPN college basketball analyst and former Wake Forest head coach Dino Gaudio joins us to share his thoughts on #Wakeyleaks, Skip Prosser, Kentucky vs. Louisville, Duke, UNC, and NC State. DG is also joined by Wolfpack head coach Dave Doeren to talk Independence Bowl and which player of his would make the best Santa Claus.

DG offers some new context to the Christian McCaffrey and Leonard Fournette cases, in which they will skip their teams' respective bowl games to prepare for the NFL Draft. We also get you up to speed on the latest in the North Carolina AFAM scandal and the anticipated HB2 repeal.

Only two days away from DG's last show of 2016, perhaps the two most headache-inducing sports headlines have reappeared as the North Carolina General Assembly may repeal HB2 and the NCAA has issued a new amended notice of allegations to UNC in the AFAM scandal.
