In this jam-packed episode of Billified: The Bill Moran Podcast, Bill reunites with his old morning show co-host Dan for a nostalgic trip down memory lane — including the infamous moment when Bill was so exhausted he started slurring his speech on-air. That memory sparks a deep dive into the viral 2022 incident involving Albany news anchor Heather Kovar, whose on-air slurred words and animated delivery led many to suspect she was drunk. Bill plays the clip, unpacks the truth behind it, and reveals shocking new developments in Heather’s life that reignite questions about public perception, privacy, and the pressures of being in the spotlight.

Musician Pete Frank, founder of ZBTB and frontman for The Highway Boys (a Zach Bryan tribute band), returns to talk about the emotional connection he feels with Zac Brown and Zach Bryan’s music — and why it’s best experienced live. Pete previews their upcoming show at BTB Woodfire Pizza & Grill’s Music Fest this Saturday night.

Sports fans get their fill as Bill and Dan break down the Buffalo Bills’ blockbuster $48 million deal with running back James Cook and debate Nick Wright’s fiery take on whether head coach Sean McDermott should be on the hot seat if the Bills miss the Super Bowl again.

Things take a tech turn when Bill shares a bizarre — and creepy — experience with AI deepfake videos involving him and a stranger in romantic scenarios. Dan and Pete weigh in on the risks, ethics, and future problems this tech could cause. Finally, Bill explores a study claiming that gossip can actually bring couples closer together. Could spilling secrets be the key to relationship bliss?

Packed with laughs, insights, and a few “did they really just say that?” moments — this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
