Kick off the week with some guaranteed giggles! Make Us Laugh Monday, fueled by Two Men and a Junk Trunk, brings the funniest dad jokes straight from our listeners to the airwaves. Tank, Mandy, and Scotch open the text line every Monday morning and challenge the FM area to bring their best one‑liners, groan‑worthy punchlines, and “so bad they’re great” dad jokes.

Whether it’s a quick chuckle, a full belly laugh, or a classic joke that makes you roll your eyes at 7 a.m., this interactive segment turns our listeners into comedians for the day. Start your Monday smiling — because laughter (and maybe a little dad‑level corniness) is the best way to survive the week ahead.

It’s part trivia…
part mini pop‑culture documentary…
and all Wake Up Call fun.
