🎙 Jay & Laney J LIVE – Thursday, August 27, 2026

It’s Thursday on Jay & Laney J LIVE, and Episode 148 covers a little Oklahoma politics, a lot of food, and some good Thursday-morning nonsense. We talk about the uptick in Oklahoma runoff-election turnout and the new push that could eventually put a constitutional convention before voters, plus World Lake Day gives us an easy excuse to show some love to Broken Bow Lake. We get into a new survey showing Americans hit their daily energy wall before 3 p.m. and spend plenty of the day running on “autopilot,” Texas looking at three-year bachelor’s degrees, and SpaceX planning a massive new Louisiana launch facility. On the lighter side, Spicy Chicken McNuggets are coming back, PBR has somehow turned a beer box into a Jason Voorhees Halloween mask, and Reese’s is turning its famous peanut butter pumpkin into a latte. Plus, it’s Thursday, so we’ve got both the Impossible Question and Kids IQ to test everybody this morning.

Election results lead the way on Episode 147 as Jay & Laney J break down a huge night in McCurtain County and across Oklahoma. John Wayne Williams wins the District 1 County Commissioner runoff over Clint Bray, while Mitch Bishop defeats Johnny Caldwell in District 3. We also talk about Chris White winning the Oklahoma House District 1 race and Mike Mazzei edging Gentner Drummond in an incredibly close Republican runoff for governor. Country music is also mourning the loss of the legendary Dolly Parton at age 80, and we take some time to remember her music, career and impact. Dr. Lofton joins us in studio for a visit and some health talk, plus we get into people apparently using LinkedIn as a dating app and today's Impossible Question about how long it's been since many adults made a new friend. It's a packed Wednesday morning of local election results, conversation, memories and a little fun on Jay & Laney J LIVE – Episode 147.

🎙 Jay & Laney J LIVE – Tuesday, August 25, 2026

Jay and Laney J are back for another Tuesday morning on Jay & Laney J LIVE! Today we hit some of the stories making people stop and say, “Wait… what?” — including the viral AI-generated Cat in the Hat trend that has gotten so believable some teens are actually afraid to go outside at night, plus the strange case of a Georgia Walmart shopper who found $30 on the floor and ended up dealing with police over it. Add in the usual laughs, conversation, local flavor and whatever rabbit holes Jay and Laney managed to find along the way, and Episode 146 is another morning in Southeast Oklahoma you probably couldn’t script if you tried.

🎙 Jay & Laney J LIVE – Monday, August 24, 2026

Jay and Laney J kick off a brand-new week with plenty to talk about, including the latest Hosting Hochatown interview with Oklahoma governor candidate Mike Mazzei, Broken Bow football getting ready to open the season, the brutal August heat, and a reminder that Oklahoma's runoff election is coming up Tuesday. The conversation also turns to whether kids under 16 should be on social media, Americans using Buy Now Pay Later services for everyday necessities, whether we'd rather have chronological or algorithm-driven social media feeds, and the Alaska woman who says her jiu-jitsu training helped her survive an encounter with an 800-pound bear. Plus, we briefly tease some big upcoming giveaways — Mexican OT tickets for the Hochatown Saloon two Fridays from now and Guns N' Roses tickets at Globe Life Field in Texas on Wednesday, September 9! Plenty more fun, local conversation and Monday morning madness on Episode 145 of Jay & Laney J LIVE.

Jay & Laney J wrapped up the week with Dr. Lofton in studio, talking about what parents can expect as back-to-school illnesses start making the rounds, West Nile and mosquito season, the latest Salmonella concerns involving fresh produce, and how social media is influencing the way people—especially teens—think about food and health. Dr. Lofton also weighed in on symptoms we sometimes dismiss as “just getting older” and which health numbers everyone should really know. Plus, we talked about early voting in McCurtain County, Stoney LaRue in Hochatown tonight, and some of the other local and national stories making noise heading into the weekend.

🎙️ Jay & Laney J LIVE – Thursday, August 20, 2026

It was National Radio Day, and Jay & Laney leaned all the way into it—celebrating local radio, swapping memories, talking about how the business has changed, and hearing from listeners about what radio has meant to them through the years. The show also featured Laney J’s original Glow Worm for Show & Tell, Bob Strain’s hilarious comment on the Swap Shop shares, and a warning for local businesses after a suspicious Blue Rocket SEO invoice showed up at the station. A big part of the morning was also getting listeners ready for the weekend with a chance to win Stoney LaRue tickets for Friday night at the Hochatown Saloon. Plus, Jay & Laney talked about the Army unit offering soldiers four days off to play Grand Theft Auto VI, the Louisiana teen who allegedly returned to a convenience store after stealing nearly $20 worth of snacks, today’s Impossible Question about smoothies, and the Thursday Kids IQ as students settle back into school.

🎙 Jay & Laney J LIVE – Wednesday, August 19, 2026

Jay & Laney J kick off Wednesday with a follow-up on the loaded log truck rollover that shut down Highway 3 near Moon Curve, plus a reminder that early voting starts tomorrow for some big McCurtain County runoff races. The conversation turns to those painful summer electric bills hitting Oklahoma households, a massive tank fire in Glenpool believed to have been sparked by lightning, and a Harvard study finding traffic deaths jump on days when huge new albums are released. We also remember ZZ Top drummer Frank Beard, look ahead to next week's lunar eclipse, and tackle today's Impossible Question about one of the most common everyday activities adults over 40 still enjoy doing with their parents. It's another packed morning of local news, weird headlines, music, laughs and plenty of Jay & Laney J LIVE.

🎙️ Jay & Laney J LIVE – Tuesday, August 18, 2026

Jay & Laney kicked off Tuesday with a look at the local runoff election just one week away, plus a reminder about the Junior Chamber Leadership deadline and McCurtain County’s Hyper-Reach emergency alert system. They talked about the massive tank fire in Glenpool, whether today’s snacks have way too many ingredients, and how baby names and pet names have basically become the same list. Plus, McDonald’s apparently knows its loyal customers well enough to build hundreds of pages of data on them. Add in National Fajita Day, Bad Poetry Day, plenty of local conversation, and the usual Jay & Laney chaos, and Episode 141 had a little bit of everything.

🎙 Jay & Laney J LIVE – Monday, August 17, 2026

Jay & Laney kick off a new week with plenty happening close to home, including the final stretch before McCurtain County’s August 25 runoff elections and a little Broken Bow–Idabel rivalry action on the softball field. We also give a shoutout to Seatbelt Buddy on TikTok for watching the show, and talk about the shocking news of actress Hayden Panettiere’s death at just 36 years old, and Dolly Parton misses a Dollywood event after her doctor tells her to stay home and recover. All that, plenty of laughs, local conversation and your Monday morning nonsense on Episode 140 of Jay & Laney J LIVE!

Podcast Show Notes – Friday, August 14, 2026

Laney J was flying solo this morning while Jay was in Oklahoma City, but the studio stayed busy. McCurtain County District 3 Commissioner candidate Mitch Bishop joined the show to talk about his campaign, the upcoming August 25 runoff and what he believes District 3 needs moving forward. Then Dr. Lofton stopped by with timely advice on summer skin, bug bites, heat rash, sun exposure and the skin issues that can pop up as kids head back to school and fall sports. Laney also talked about the first Friday of the new school year, the Oklahoma heat sticking around, Russell Westbrook calling it a career and more from a packed Friday morning on Jay & Laney J LIVE.
