Bill had the experience of walking backwards while out with his wife on a walk. He had heard that it has certain health benefits so he tried it out. Dave hasn't had much experience on his new treadmill as he is waiting for the colder temps to put it to use. 

Carmen reminisced about her experiences at Six Flags when she heard that one of their locations is closing. 

As yesterday was National Sandwich Day, Dave found a recipe for a French Onion Grilled Cheese that he would like to experience. 

Bill shared an article that highlights 8 financial fixes that take less than an hour to complete and it comes from those speaking from experience. 

When it comes to experience, Dental Hygienists can tell you all you  need to know on the best electric toothbrushes and floss options. 

Bill really wants to Dave to experience a Silent Book Club like he did last night. 

As Christmas shopping is underway, some are considering experiences as gifts.

Carmen's got one of her Christmas decorations up. Dave's gonna link up with family for the holidays and that requires a lot of driving. 

We all woke up an hour later than we are used to yesterday after the time change. Hopefully we will have adjusted by next week when T-Shirts For Turkeys gets started. 

For those looking to help in some way with the people of Jamaica in the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, we've linked to a few different relief organizations for you. 

Carmen got linked up with SlingTV with minutes to spare before College GameDay on Saturday. She scrambled to make it happen as YouTube and Disney's fallout took ESPN and other channels away from the YouTube TV stream. 

Congratulations are in order for the Los Angeles Dodgersas they won the World Series and a few of the teams we cheer for in football also won this weekend. 

Dave linked up with the grandkids on FaceTime over the weekend and gave us the update on Andi Kate and Sutton. 

Carmen linked up with HelloFresh to make some Shepherd's Pie this weekend and she'll be adding that to her menu rotation in the fall. 

An 8th-grader has created a detection device linking cameras up to help those that have "fallen and can't get up!"

With the time change in effect, there are some obvious and not-so-obvious links with your health. 

With the government shutdown continuing, many may need to link up with the organizations we are partnering with for T-Shirts For Turkeys so your help is truly appreciated. 

Jeff Bezos believes that many of us will be living in space in the next 20 years. 

Carmen has started to link up with ChatGPT in an effort to track her macros.

There's a lot going on today. The Jayar Show is celebrating Josh Baldwin Day. Some are celebrating Halloween. If you see someone wearing red today, they may be commemorating Reformation Day. The ISS is celebrating 25 years and we've been celebrating 19 years of The Morning Cruise this week. 

Jules is not looking forward to the day that her daughters leave the nest. But while she soaks up time with them, she may want to reconsider the time of day she has family outings. 

As a part of our celebrating The Morning Cruise, Carmen decided to giveaway some camo TMC hats on the show today. 

The other day, Cory Asbury led worship for the first time in about 6 years along with Forrest Frank. 

And we shared a couple of highlights from over the years including a crowd surfing story from the artist known for his song, "Red Letters", Crowder. Chris Tomlin also had a great story when he was here in August about taking his family scuba diving.

It's only the end of October, but Christmas is creeping up! Is it too soon to put the tree up? 

As we talked about the Christmas creep phenomenon, the question was raised about hearing some new Christmas music. Dave obliged with a new one that feels a bit nostalgic (or has some novelty to it as Carmen thinks) from Tasha Layton. 

Carmen's Estradiol Patch came and she is back to using it after Hitch made a trip to a local pharmacy that helped out. 

Bill shared some resources on dyslexia. 

With family coming around for the holidays, you might want to invest in the Forever Roll from Charmin. 

Every once in a while a word comes around on Wordle that Carmen has never heard of. 

And with Halloween coming tomorrow, candy is on the mind of a lot of people. Bill played a little Candy Quest game with Dave and Carmen testing their knowledge on the slogans of some favorite candies. 

As Halloween can highlight some unsavory characters, it can be a hard time for Christians to navigate. Bill pointed out some resources to consider. 

Candy Corn can be a divisive treat these days as you either hate it or love it. Turns out that today is National Candy Corn Day and Dave gave us all the facts on it, which may gross some people out! 

As Hurricane Melissa has passed through much of the Caribbean, many organizations are coming to the aid of the people of Jamaica, Cuba and Hispaniola as they deal with the devastation left behind. 

A few months ago, Joel and Luke came around for a visit and shared some new songs with us. One of those songs is out now, World On Fire. 

And coming very soon to Lakeland, JOY Worship will be on the signals that we had playing The JOY FM until recently.

Hitch got ready for the show this week with a few notes on the sheet we use to keep everything straight and had a little jab at Dave, Bill and Carmen. 

If you listened on Friday, you might have expected an update on Dave's knife set that he had delivered. Well, good news, he still has all his fingers! 

Jamaica is expecting the worst as Hurricane Melissa continues on a path towards the island nation. 

Bill expected a beautiful service at the Celebration of Life for a longtime friend. What he didn't expect was all the stories he hadn't heard before. 

Dave had a busy weekend and didn't expect the end result for his LSU Tigers but wasn't surprised by their next move. 

We all have expectations of football referees, but they haven't lived up to those expectations. 

Several of you expected an update on Carmen's patch predicament, so she gave us the update.

Do you expect to be able to live to 100? Bill has some strategies. 

What do you expect someone to say when you ask about hearing God's word? Carmen's pastor shared a few words on that yesterday in his message. 

Tour pranks are an expectation for mnay of our artists and Crowder was the latest to be pranked.

We hope to be making a world of difference for many in our listening area when T-Shirts For Turkeys happens. And there's a few changes to the way we've done things including a new sponsor! 

The country of Nigeria has been experiencing 

The season of fall is coming in fast and flying by changing the weather (some say for the better...) 

Our birder, Bill, wanted to see if Dave and Carmen could tell the difference between a few pictures of birds with his Friday Flyday game. 

Carmen's going through some life changes and she was prescibed a patch that is definitely making a difference but she has run out of them and so has her pharmacy! 

There are a lot of sleep aids but not many of them make a difference in the quality of sleep. Dave told us about a new AI aid in the form of a mattress pad. 

The Morning Cruise has evolved quite a bit in the 19 years they have been on the air. We'll be sharing some of the highlights of the show over the years next week in an anniversary show. 

Our North Georgia listeners will be seeing a difference in the seasons as the colors of the leaves begin to change. 

Dave's excited as he awaits a new knife set as a sharpened set of knives makes a difference in the kitchen.

For those in Lakeland, we don't want you to miss it when JOY Worship can be heard on the former signals we had around town. You won't want to miss the best definition of worship from the late Tim Keller. While Carmen was doing her Bible study, she was surprised to learn for the first time that the name Jason was in the Bible. 

And for those that have a hard time with judgement, you'll want to hear what Josh Howerton has to say.

If you are a college student and miss your Grubhub order because you slept through the delivery, they have a new program for you in the form of Grubhub Snooze Insurance. And one listener provided Carmen with a possible solution the next time she might have to miss her grocery delivery. 

Emeka Egbuka is praying for Mike Evans. Not only for him to not miss too much time from the football field but also to grow closer to God. 

Bill's wife was running late and didn't want to miss helping out but she also didn't want the birds to miss out on having the bird feeder. 

When you hear what product Progresso Soup is offering to promote a new line of soups, you may want to pass on it. 

And Carmen shared a statistic on hugs, but Dave thinks it is okay to miss out on those opportunities.

Carmen had a power outage last night while she was trying to sleep. Amazon had an outage that effected millions trying to do work. 

There's good news for those that have had to do without peanuts because of an allergy. 

Carmen and Pete were outside when they heard the music of an ice cream truck nearby. So they tracked it down for a sweet treat last night. 

Can we go without a CeCe song for our Midweek Praise Break? Sort of...

This week's songs include Thank You For The Cross by Tauren Wells, Gratitude by Brandon Lake and I Know A Name by Brandon Lake and CeCe Winans. 

Dave's friends want to take him out to an ice cream food truck near him to try a Dubai Chocolate treat. And where can you find Dubai Chocolate? All over the place! 

After 505 days as a hostage in Gaza, Omer Shem Tov is out and sharing his story about how he found light in the darkness. And with all that is happening in the world, there is a revival happening and we should go all out to spread the Gospel message.
