Fat Cats

We know that asking people to post photos of their pets WILL get you entries. And if you add a wacky™ element like dressing them up as movie star, people will do it. They do an Ugliest Dog Contest in Santa Rosa every year that goes viral in about .08 seconds. What if you did this Chubby Bear contest from Alaska but with fat cats?

A Sign That Your Morning Show Is Exceptionally Cool

They have their own beer brand to raise money for pet charities. From JACK in Halifax

Voodoo

It’s been a LONG time since Padres fans have had anything to be excited about. Rob & Joss at Sunny 98.1 are doing voodoo dolls (sheets) that people can print off the site and poke, and also put a curse on the Cardinals.

Fun factoid. Tom Bernard has been a moderately huge show in the Twin Cities for three decades and arguably the thing that put him on the map was the 1987 World Series. I was at a station where we were able to get 25 pairs of tickets for giving away and we did all sorts of stuff but he had two bits that just cinched it and 33 years later, if you walk up to people (of a certain age, ie: they’d been born) and ask “What radio station do you remember being associated with that World Series?” You will get “Tom Bernard at KQ92 and the ‘Light Happy Music’ and voodooizing the Cards.” Rob and Joss are using his voodoo music.

An Autobody Experience

If you’re looking for a hook for Halloween, see if anyone’s used car might still have the previous owner hanging around. It happens. And it’s a hook. Hooks are good. One of the stations had a former ambulance and they had a psychic read it for Halloween. There was a LOT of activity.
