Calvin Mattson and Parker William are bringing magic back

(Part 4) Calvin and Parker are doing a show called "What is Even Happening", which you're not allowed to see. Well, you can, but only if you already have tickets. It's sold out, you see. Regardless, they're here in studio to tell you about how magic is cool again.

Cats and horses

(Part 3) There are two animal-related movies out now: Cat in the Hat and Wild Horse Nine. The former is apparently just an hour and a half of insane nonsense, if you're into that. The latter is an "arthouse film". From what I understand, that means you'll either love it or hate it.

Creepy weirdos and Christmas movies

(Part 2) Russell Brand and Meghan Markle's dad have both been determined to be, at best, gross. But Diego Pasillas has been determined to be cool. We can't focus on unpleasant things forever. Especially now that we're in the season of fifty Christmas movies per day.

Lordy lordy looks who's 75

(Part 1) Tom's turning 75 tomorrow. You may recall a year or two back that he said that today would be his last day on air. Rest assured, that is not true. What is true is that today we got a surprise call-in to wish Tom a happy birthday. Someone from our past. Who? I'll never tell.

Joe Anderson reps the Frost

(Part 4) You know how Minnesota sports are kind of...not good? That's only half true. It's the men's sports that aren't good. Women's sports range from adequate to great. The Frost exists on the "great" end of that scale, being two time PWHL champions. And you haven't heard of them before, you have now. Keep an eye on them.

Anyone need an Italian clown?

(Part 3) Half the country feels like the midterms were an unprecedented success. The other feels like it's the biggest loss since the meteor wiped out the dinosaurs. But what if I told you they were actually just about average? That's right, this happens basically every four years. What doesn't happen every four years is an Italian sculptor mysteriously appearing, making a bunch of clowns, then vanishing without a trace. It happened at least once though.
