A trivia nail-biter, a rising country artist, and the wildest Super Bowl numbers you’ll hear all week — it’s another fun Friday on The Morning Brew.

We kick things off by giving away Arizona Renaissance Festival tickets to Shane from Show Low after a clutch round of Super Bowl trivia. Then it’s time for our Country Climb Star of the Week, another A-Lister sent our way by Shawn Burke, Austin Burke, and the Playslisted Podcast.

This week’s featured artist is Lauren Gottshall, and we’re proud to debut her single “Holy Man” on country radio. Lauren shares the story behind the song, her musical journey from Chicago to Nashville, and the moments that shaped her sound and songwriting voice.

We wrap up the show with Jineane Ford from our sister stations Majik 101.7 and iTalk 106.7 for Fun Fact Friday, diving into surprising Super Bowl stats, weekend excitement, and plenty of laughs to send you into the weekend.

This week, Relationship Advice Thursday kicks off with a question straight out of the future: is it romantic—or creepy—if your partner runs every message through AI? Jineane Ford helps us unpack how to set boundaries, protect authenticity, and keep communication real in a digital world.

From there, we hit the ice with Boo or Cool: Olympic Edition, breaking down winter sports, Olympic village rumors, Team USA style, and a hilarious round of Olympic-themed pickup lines (results may vary).

Our Country News Minute brings updates on Reba McEntire’s wedding buzz, Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO’s milestones, and Tim McGraw’s tour news.

We close with a heartfelt bonus segment featuring Nathan from England, tackling how to support a partner after a major mistake—like losing a laptop full of unsynced work. It’s funny, honest, and full of practical advice for keeping relationships strong under pressure.

It’s Wednesday, which means the gavel is ready — but first, we’re giving things away.

We kick off with Super Bowl commercial trivia, sending caller Ryker from Show Low to the Arizona Renaissance Festival with four tickets after he nails two classic ad questions. From nostalgic laughs to game-day memories, the energy stays high as we roll into a check-in with Jineane Ford from our sister stations Majik 1017 and Italk 1067 — including a comedy show update tonight in Chandler and reactions to a certain brokini birthday cake video that’s making the rounds online.

Then it’s time for Am I the Jerk Court. First case: a boyfriend tells his girlfriend the dryer isn’t shrinking her clothes — she’s gaining weight. Is it honesty or emotional sabotage? We break down where support and sensitivity meet.

But the court isn’t adjourned yet. Caller Justin from Show Low steps in as our bonus guest judge, weighs in on a second case, and walks away with four more Renaissance Festival tickets.

Laughs, giveaways, and real-life rulings — it’s a full Morning Brew.

It’s Talk About Something Good Tuesday, and this episode is packed with heart, hometown heroes, and a little bit of chaos.

We start with an inspiring conversation with former Country Climb Star of the Week, Julian Kalel, fresh off his American Idol audition where he earned three yeses from the judges. Julian opens up about the nerves, the journey, and what it means to share his story and original music on one of the biggest stages in the world.

In studio, we’re joined by David Whitmore from the Show Low Elks Lodge, talking about their upcoming Membership Drive Party during the Big Game this Sunday starting at 2 PM, and highlighting the incredible work the Elks do for our local community — from kids’ programs to charity efforts that make a real difference.

Then things take a turn into pure Morning Brew energy as Jineane joins us and we recap a brokini birthday cake delivery that lit up our phones — including a call from the birthday crew themselves and a few predictions that this might become a very strange new side hustle.

We wrap with more good news, laughs, and a final reminder to stop by the Show Low Elks Lodge this Sunday and be part of something bigger in the community.

Groundhog Day kicks off with a win as caller Heath from Pinetop takes home four tickets to the Arizona Renaissance Festival in a round of Groundhog Trivia. From there, things go big fast — we check in with Emmy Award–winning producer and Payson High grad Ryan, who just got tapped by the Intuit and TurboTax team to create social content at the Super Bowl. Tracksuits, media week chaos, and behind-the-scenes moments you won’t see on brand feeds are all on the table.

The fun keeps rolling with “Write-Off or Rip-Off,” where we put creative expenses to the test and talk about what really counts when you’re running your passion like a business.

Jineane joins us to recap the biggest moments from last night’s GRAMMYs, including Jelly Roll’s emotional win and a spotlight on country music’s growing presence. We also celebrate a rising star — former Country Climb Star of the Week Julian Kalel, who’s auditioning for American Idol tonight. Tune in and cheer him on.

We wrap with Super Bowl–edition motivational quotes, anchored by Patrick Mahomes’ reminder: “You don’t wait for the moment. You work every day so when it comes, you’re ready.” Plus, a call from Paul in Beaumont and a round of “Are You Smarter Than a Redneck” to close it out.

We kick off the morning with a Big Wig Trivia showdown and an instant win as Eli from Taylor scores AZ Renaissance Festival tickets in a fast, funny start that sets the tone for the day.

Then we welcome stand-up comedian Patrick Kean to the show ahead of Patrick Kean and Friends at Mic Drop Chandler (Wednesday, February 4th). Patrick and Chris swap stories from the road, what it’s like performing “in the round,” and the behind-the-scenes systems that make great comedy rooms feel effortless. The conversation turns competitive with a Super Bowl trivia challenge that proves Patrick might just be smarter than a very handsome radio DJ.

Jineane jumps in with nerd news updates before we dive into a real-life relationship advice segment: a woman gives birth in a friend’s car and suddenly finds herself blamed for the mess. We break down empathy, boundaries, and what grace actually looks like when friendships get complicated.

We wrap with a redemption win in Big Wig Trivia, and a listener moment that turns “donate” into “designate” before finally landing on “dedicate” — the kind of live radio chaos that makes mornings memorable.

Two ticket giveaways, one bold redneck philosopher, and a costume debate nobody saw coming.

Then Paul from Beaumont checks in with a no-filter weight loss update after using “the fat shot,” sharing what it’s really like maintaining after quick results. He sticks around for Relationship Advice Thursday, where a listener asks how to respond to their partner’s plan for a “sexy baby” costume — and Paul delivers a blunt but hilarious take on boundaries and communication.

A vacuum sparks a neighborhood standoff, and Am I The Jerk court is officially in session. We kick things off with a listener-judge ruling on whether you owe moving help to the same neighbor who called the cops on your Saturday cleaning. Is it about being kind—or keeping your boundaries intact? The verdict sets the tone for a morning full of laughs, logic, and a little moral math.

Things get wild fast with Rattlesnake Roundup Day trivia, mixing fun facts with real-world safety as we test whether Brian from Pinedale is smarter than a very handsome radio DJ.

Then court reconvenes for a family dilemma: WWE tickets, a rescheduled baby shower, and a house volunteered without permission. We unpack sunk costs, personal space, and why being “reliable” can sometimes get you steamrolled.

Two cases, one message: courtesy matters—but so does standing your ground. Press play, cast your verdict, and join the conversation. Be nice to yourself, be nice to others, and don’t be the jerk.
