Eric Chase

Something very serious to address at the end of this episode, but first...

It's not 86"!

Good on me for getting her to where she is.

Cartoons that shaped me/us.

The Bacon Turkey Bravo is back.

Have you seen the viral video of the woman expressing her belief that ICE is much more like slave owners than the Gestapo? There are similarities, but there is one core trait that makes them vastly different and I'd like to dive into that, with as much detail and clarity as I can.

FLOYD'S HERE!

Floyd wanted to come by to share a musical he'll be in next month. That's around the 30:00 mark, so before then LOTS of catching up to do.

Where does he work? What does he do there? Wicked thoughts. Heated Rivalry and much more of two friends catching up since it's been years since we sat around for four hours each day chatting on the air.

Dot and Kali are here because they won their way onto the podcast!

They participated in an auction at a Galentine's Day event celebrating all kinds of woman in BG. They're here to talk about the next one (not many tickets left!) and their wellness businesses in downtown BG. Under that wellness umbrella with Dot is GLP1s, so I have plenty of nerding out to do in that part of the discussion.

Took me years but I repaid a neighbor for her kind gesture.

Where are we doing Opening Day

A horror bar!

Harry Styles and a 586 number.

We're back to 2016. 

Oh, first, the roads WERE kinda lousy.

This is really cool. The person behind the page. The hysterically entertaining informative and snarky Lucas County Sheriff's office page. Bobby Chromik, whose actual job is Director of Jail Security, is the man behind the page. Let's get to know him, how he fell into the page, his dog Moby and near the end, LOTS of super geek Star Wars nuggets!

It's the dead of winter and early January, but signs of better months are here. This sign is the annual visit from the Acoustics for Autism crew. 

Scott Hayes brought by a new musical guest (Jeff Stewart! to visit with us this year as they get ready for 30,000+ people on March 1st and what will likely be another record breaking year of fundraising with this FREE event!

And I do mean us. Because she has served YOU. It's not Alex or someone we regularly talk about. It's my baseball loving friend Caylee Kirby, formerly of WTOL. I always knew we'd love this Vegas girl, but I'm glad we kept her as long as we did! 

Her favorite story while here. 

waking up at 230 A FREAKIN M.

What she came to love about Toledo.

And much more. We did save room for baseball! If you didn't know, Caylee's dad is former Tribe player Wayne, and her uncle is former Brown, Terry.

Avalon was much of the discussion when Deb Ayres visited last to share all about the Avalon Foundation - kids caring for kids with rare diseases. Let's hear the journey through HPP right from Avalon on this episode, and then WAWA!

First, #irisadventures, more Chat GPT wins for me, and the Eric Chase Bowl coming to Toledo this fall!

Back for 2026 with a busy day in the studio. 

First up Doug Hinebaugh returns with Sandra DeSanto to shed some light on what warming centers are and how we may be able to help them.

Next, Leann and Jennifer from Planned Pethood - where Iris came from - are in to talk about what makes them distinctive from other places where you may adopt from. And their invite to join them for a snuggle event at the end of the month.

Previously we just had Ty Cleveland from the Mud Talk Podcast in. Now we've got the whole show in for what will likely be the last episode of the year. Thank you so much for listening. I hope you enjoy hearing what their show is like, getting to hear about some of their highlights from the 2025.

They're gonna hit you almost as hard as Anthony Joshua hit Jake Paul.
