We had a great show today that strangely started with dessert, then got into Bigfoot politics, a lawsuit over a soda, and a fascinating new study on media consumption. Comedian Craig Shoemaker was back and hilarious, as always, and we spun the wheel for "Long Song Wednesday" in a new time slot!

Philly-native Craig Shoemaker flew home from L.A. just to be on with us this morning! Ok, he has an upcoming show at the Music Box at the Boragata too, but must be a coincidence. He told us about growing up poor/ raised by women, the silliness in his son's baseball league on the Left coast, and why being a loser is important. Check him out!

We're getting set for this Saturday's Big Gig concert at the BB&T Pavilion, and we started things out today by sharing our excitement for headliner Jeff Beck! We all shared the laziest thing we do, then hit the phones to hear yours. Then comedian/ Energizer bunny Greg Hahn called us up for the first time ever, and we heard why Chipotle is in the news again... listen!

Comedian Greg Hahn brought his high-energy comedic stylings to the show today! It was an intense first impression that left us wonderfully exhausted, as he told us about being from here, growing up in Florida and performing in Atlantic City soon. He made it very clear why he's not married, why he has a history with shrimp, and how he likes to prepare for a performance. Check him out!

It's gonna be Groundhog's Week, according to the forecast, and we dove in head-first this morning! Steve told us about his Sesame Place adventures over the weekend, we learned about a car insurance scam that nearly worked, a homewrecking lawsuit that DID work (for the husband who was cheated on), the latest madness in academia, and musicologist Chris Epting once again blew our minds... this time on the Charlie Daniels Band classic "The Devil Went Down To Georgia." And of course, we thinned the herd. Enjoy!

Author and musicologist Chris Epting is currently undertaking a baseball road trip for a book, but he spent a "7th inning stretch" of sorts today with us to talk the Charlie Daniels Band! He enlightened us to everything we didn't know about the classic "Devil Went Down To Georgia" performance... mainly that it was a cover track!

Comedian and golf widow Bonnie McFarlane joined us in-studio today, for the first time ever! We gave her the obligatory grief for being married to comedian Rich Vos, then heard about the roast for him that she organized, and we heard what it's like to be on the road with her 11 year old daughter. Go see her at Helium Comedy Club this weekend!

Happy Friday! Today on the show we talked the approaching Blood Moon, heard about a guy who rode a cock horse, enlightened you with Billy Joel fun facts, and welcomed comedian Bonnie McFarlane to the studio for the very first time!

In honor of Mick Jagger's birthday (7/26) we played a clip from an interview John DeBella did with Bill Wyman a few years ago.  Bill tells John  one of our favorite Stones stories about a time, early in the band's career, that Mick was acting tough and ended up getting punched in the face.

Actor and comedian Adam Ferrara was back on the show today and talked about the romanticism of albums, his new movie Little Italy, and getting goofy with his dog. He'll be at Helium Comedy Club in two months, but until then enjoy him right here!
