Remember I went to a speed dating event last year? We don't seem to have too many or ANY types of events like that around here, as that woman's events are usually in Michigan.

Kelly and Kelsey (Kel2Co) are aiming to change with their first singles event happening at Inside the 5 on...Valentine's Day.

Of course details about the event but also much about their (and some of my) dating adventures and perspectives here in Toledo. NOTE. If you're a felon, please be forthcoming about that! It's not a dealbreaker, but NOT sharing that first is!

Full event info!

My good friend Katie Maskey from the Girl Scouts is here with Abby, a local Girl Scout, to get you hyped up GIRL SCOUT COOKIE SEASON!

It was fun getting to know Abby. We share a love for our dogs. So I was excited to hear all about Soda, and how he got that name, and Tigger. And of course, there's little brother...Joey.

BUY COOKIES!

Something very serious to address at the end of this episode, but first...

It's not 86"!

Good on me for getting her to where she is.

Cartoons that shaped me/us.

The Bacon Turkey Bravo is back.

Have you seen the viral video of the woman expressing her belief that ICE is much more like slave owners than the Gestapo? There are similarities, but there is one core trait that makes them vastly different and I'd like to dive into that, with as much detail and clarity as I can.

FLOYD'S HERE!

Floyd wanted to come by to share a musical he'll be in next month. That's around the 30:00 mark, so before then LOTS of catching up to do.

Where does he work? What does he do there? Wicked thoughts. Heated Rivalry and much more of two friends catching up since it's been years since we sat around for four hours each day chatting on the air.

Dot and Kali are here because they won their way onto the podcast!

They participated in an auction at a Galentine's Day event celebrating all kinds of woman in BG. They're here to talk about the next one (not many tickets left!) and their wellness businesses in downtown BG. Under that wellness umbrella with Dot is GLP1s, so I have plenty of nerding out to do in that part of the discussion.

Took me years but I repaid a neighbor for her kind gesture.

Where are we doing Opening Day

A horror bar!

Harry Styles and a 586 number.

We're back to 2016.

Oh, first, the roads WERE kinda lousy.

This is really cool. The person behind the page. The hysterically entertaining informative and snarky Lucas County Sheriff's office page. Bobby Chromik, whose actual job is Director of Jail Security, is the man behind the page. Let's get to know him, how he fell into the page, his dog Moby and near the end, LOTS of super geek Star Wars nuggets!

It's the dead of winter and early January, but signs of better months are here. This sign is the annual visit from the Acoustics for Autism crew.

Scott Hayes brought by a new musical guest (Jeff Stewart! to visit with us this year as they get ready for 30,000+ people on March 1st and what will likely be another record breaking year of fundraising with this FREE event!
