The good news? The tech issues that we experienced yesterday have been resolved. The bad news? The temperature outside keeps dropping and there's nothing we can do about it.

In the first hour, SKOR North's Judd Zulgad recaps the Vikings embarrassing loss to the Bears on Monday night and discuss how fans are missing Kirk Cousins, and KSTP's Chris Egert has finally returned from his hunting trip and has the latest on stories impacting the Twin Cities area and the Minnesota Wild's major coaching change.

Hour #2 has Amy Seeman promoting 12 Moms of Christmas which gifts vehicles and other supplies to single low-income mothers who have no means of transportation. If you're interested in donating or learning more about 12 Moms of Christmas you can email Amy at [email protected]. Also, journalist, commentator, and op-ed columnist Charles Blow joins the show to talk about his latest work which is the HBO documentary film "South to Black Power".

In hour #3 we decide who we hate the most. But don't worry - it's only fictional hate, because they're TV characters. It also really highlights how much of late 2000s/early 2010s TV revolved around characters who were bad for the sake of bad. Kristyn Burtt tries to balance out the hate with some...positivity? Kind of? We'll call it "cautious optimism" for the future of theaters.

On the Family, we make a wish: that Disney would go back to making memorable movies. In their quest to make their films appeal to everyone, they made them appeal to no one. It's very ironic when you think about it. We also spend a while slandering historical figures like Benjamin Franklin. Did you know that he wasn't president? It's true!
