This has all crystallized quite quickly in my world. Tik Tok is going to limit use for kids and teens. 

I wish I could give you...experience!

Maumee Starbucks considering forming a union. As usual, be willing to strike, or leave. 

Happy Opening Day.

Nate Koszycki is back to talk about THE BIGGEST WEEK IN AMERICAN BIRDING. Why!? Because that happens right here in NWO. Millions of dollars (and birds) hit the area, along with tens of thousands of people.

Before Nate, riding the wave of mood and energy coaster. A $289 a month car payment. And several other local stories of note!.

Now let's see if Nate can figure out what these birds are on my neighbors trees that always greet the dogs and I. Oh, and Diddy's elbow thing is not cancer. 

The epidemic before the pandemic is still raging, obviously enflamed by the endless issues COVID caused. When it comes to substance abuse UTMC is one of the places that help you, loved ones, friends or coworkers get on the path to recovery.

As with anything, it's semantics? Or really subjective. Let's discuss with Tik Tok experts Bethany and Alex. 

Also, today was the much anticipated TSA Lottery and there's still slots for going-into-6th grade students!

Why Alex, thank you for the compliment!

Augustus now enormous not fat, and the ladies disagree with me about the searing nature of that word. 

FORMER Blade Food Empress Mary BIlyeu is on today, and I quiz the heck out of her about the entirety of her job change experience. I think you will find some helpful insight that you can apply to yourself.

We also talk about how few phone numbers we know, the arrival of Restaurant Week Toledo and the area's best fish frys.

First, last night I learned toilets have shut off valves. 

After being at Perrysburg for their teacher development day Friday, I'm sorry, but I think with the wait you're enduring, you're gonna have to do this yourself. I have life saving book suggestions.

Before that!

I wasn't even expected to pod today!

Finally, a roller skating party. Maybe.

Happy National Margarita Day.

Disability Friend nominations with the City Paper.

He just skipped student council and went straight to the school board.

Former mayors, please take note of TARTA's free kids passes this summer!

Free cookies at Savage. 

Ethan Thornbury, the son of an internet friend of mine, mentioned he enjoyed Monday's episode with SAME Cafe. I didn't know he was a listener! We have a mutual love of electronic dance music. Being that I could be his dad, I thought it would make for an interesting compare and contrast discussion about the genre we love. 

More thoughts on the CDC data about what teenage girls and LGBTQ youth are experiencing in their mental health crisis. 

First, whew, looks like Big Dog (one of my names for Diddy) is going to be OK!

A famous Toledoan and his wife were on Wheel of Fortune last night. 

Happy 15th to Jaden Jefferson. He IS in my inner circle of friends.

I was on the news apparently last night, next to the police! But I have some helpful safety info to share with you after that TPD Quality Of Life Meeting. 

No one is forcing you to be on social media. Time to review how you use it.  

UPDATE. I always forget things! Damnit. Let's ditch self care, mental health hygiene and be more careful how we talk about mental health. It's good that it's so much more prevalent but let's do it responsibly as to not exacerbate the situation!

Janet Amid will be by shortly, to forecast good times ahead, but first...

Two C or B list early 2000s artists are about to tour. 

My neighbor asked her adult daughter to turn down her music on my behalf. She did not. 

Goddamnit, it's a four way stop!

We may never have what we've had from Marvel ever again. 

Claude's, Claudia's or Claudine's?

Dates or a house first? I'm betting on Alex!

It's time to move this off of that Sunday!

Last Of Us episode 5. 

Numbers detailing the youth mental health crisis. 

Alex is quite displeased with how many people were very upset by parts of the Super Bowl.
