Today’s show was delightfully all over the place — from a Positive Difference story about a grandma leveling up in the world of video games to a Crawfish‑themed 5‑in‑15 that had us laughing way too hard. It was chaotic, charming, and exactly the kind of Friday energy we needed. Tune in to catch the rest of the fun!

The crew took things a little deeper today as they shared a powerful letter a dad wrote to his son the night before his wedding. It’s one of those reminders about legacy, love, and the kind of wisdom that stays with you long after the big day. You can read the full letter over on the KLRC Morning Show Facebook page.

Becky rolled in on the full‑blown struggle bus this morning—confirmed by Facebook, of course—but Chaplain Justin swooped in with the pep talk everyone in a funky work haze didn’t know they needed. Then the Battle of Generations cranked up, launching us straight back to 2009 with Flo Rida blasting like it was everyone’s senior year. And the Boomers? They came in hot with those “Closer”-era jungle jams that somehow still make them feel unstoppable.

We got to hang out with Susie Ellher from the More Than Small Town podcast, and she opened up about what it feels like to follow God’s call when everything around you is yelling “nope.” Then Ross brings this incredible story about a two‑year‑old survivor that fills the room with hope. It’s one of those episodes that reminds you the quiet whisper is often the one worth trusting.

Ross opens the morning with a deep, grounding prayer that sets the tone for the whole week. From celebrating a 27th wedding anniversary to gearing up for Single Parent Saturday, the crew shares the moments they’re most looking forward to. And don’t miss it — we reveal our Office of the Week and Teacher of the Week, two stories guaranteed to brighten your day.

The team had a fun time sharing what they’re grateful for today—from the awe of astronauts seeing Earth from space to the gift of this good weather. Even our 5 for 15 took us out of this world… literally, with a space‑themed twist. And of course, we wrapped things up with all the weekend happenings you won’t want to miss.

Ross is back, and the team is jumping in to support NWA Gives as our community rallies around nonprofits doing incredible work. All morning long, we’re spotlighting organizations who are fundraising so they can keep making a real difference for families and neighbors across Northwest Arkansas. It’s a powerful reminder of how generous this community is when we show up together.

Chaplain Justin joined us for a conversation about how some of us can look at creation and not imagine anything but a Creator God, and others look at the same thing and feel completely different. Plus, the gang gathered for a Battle of Generations, and Becky is starting to soften to the idea of having a pet.

Ross is out sick today, so Becky brings a little unexpected wisdom from her four‑year‑old. Mark shares a Positive Difference story that proves it’s never too late to learn the childhood skills we missed. And the team leans into those powerful “how can you not believe in God” moments that remind us of Gods wonderful creation.

Mark opened the show with a tender prayer for anyone feeling lonely, while Becky shared how dogs can be true life‑savers—and we may be in awe of the astronauts in space, but the real gift is their view back at God’s breathtaking creation on Earth. Mark is finally getting to enjoy a dinner five months in the making, and Becky’s excited to learn how to hook the fish on her next adventure
