Rep Lauren Boebert's now-explained campaign expenses at a Kid Rock concert were tied to her $12,000/person fundraiser in a suite at the Kid Rock show.
That's about $521 for every diggy-diggy-diggy in Bawitdaba, or $173 on a per diggy basis.
As heard tonight on #kexp, a local hit that played on the “Soul Giant” 1460 and 96.5 KYAC. My new favorite classic.

The Smiths. Made me feel less alone growing up.
The Romantics’ “What I Like About You” was destined to be ska! 🎷 Jer Hunter from Ska Tune Network brings it to life with brass, organ, and dance-ready skanking vibes. zurl.co/8Ruag
WNKU was really hitting its stride before that shutdown. A shame to lose what it was becoming.
“Mostly?”
How comforting.
Sad to lose them but what a way to make the most of a station sale! Much respect and appreciation to the team at FM 102/1.
What a classic.
The Riches
@rossonradio.com might appreciate this one.
A huge influence for me on what talk radio could be, transcending the political and helping us all laugh at ourselves and the world around us a bit more. Gary was incredible.
Gary Burbank was an incredibly rare talent. His humor, the way he interacted with his team and callers. Showed me an entirely different side of talk radio, total legend.
Truth. And 97x was how I heard many of those bands for the first time when the rest of US commercial radio ignored them.
Whether it's Zohran Mamdani opening city-run grocery stores or Eric Adams handing potato chip bags filled with cash to reporters, both candidates have provocative ways of getting food to New Yorkers.
KSKO? Stations like that are treasures.
Your work and that of the Next crew has renewed my hope in real journalism. What you all do is essential.
WCOO Rebuilds Its Bridge Into Charleston
LM Communications AAA "105.5 The Bridge" WCOO Kiawah Island/Charleston has announced a musical revamp.
@wxpnfm.bsky.social doing Through the Decades already has made my weekend, but @wendyrollins.bsky.social is making it extra awesome. Some of the best mic skills I’ve heard on terrestrial radio in quite a while.
One of his absolute best tracks.
Jonathan Wier Returns To KMBZ
Audacy News/Talk 98.1 KMBZ-FM Kansas City has announced the return of Jonathan Wier to the station to co-host middays with Jayme Monacelli.
If you’re going to stream your terrestrial station and expect people to actually listen, maybe fix the distortion and poor audio. It’s as though hundreds of broadcasters don’t actually listen to their own product and wonder why audiences are less engaged.
I Wanna Be Your DOGE
Elon’s got a lot of lust for life, but his teenage stooges’ rampage through the government has been no fun for this passenger.
by Maureen Dowd
It would certainly interest me as a DJ and radio enthusiast.
Could we just live in slightly LESS interesting times for a bit? Just to catch our breath and all…
Listening to Z62 WZON and WZLO in Bangor today. Those who cheer on “nationalized” radio may not be wrong on the economics, but local radio at its best reflects the uniqueness of its community. Losing that is a loss for culture and society writ large.
