March 1st at 7am a new journey began. And 100 episodes later, Season 1 is almost over. I still can’t believe it. “Faith is taking the first step without seeing the top of the staircase” and that’s exactly how this all began. With Visits from former co-hosts in radio, my mentor Eric Zane in Grand Rapids and Don Kollins at Twitch, my new chapter began. I have appreciated every day and continue to be thankful for the community support from listener/viewers and sponsors as Season 2 fast approaches. THANK you so much for your continued support, and for your feedback. I always want to know what is working and what we can do better. So as we approach our next 100 and Season 2, I will do my best to continue making the show better, and stay true to our mission of morning fun and conversation about “Food, Fun Places and the Mayhem of Life”.

Netflix Canada is making plan changes. The streaming giant says it’s phasing out the $9.99 “basic” option from its price plans, taking away the cheapest subscription without ads. That means new Netflix subscribers will have to decide whether they’re ready to sit through commercial breaks or fork out a bit more money for an ad-free experience. The next level up is $16.49 per month to watch without ads, with simultaneous viewing on two devices. There’s also the premium plan for $20.99 with 4K high-definition video and the option to add up to two members who don’t live in their household.
YOU have got to be kidding me. Isn’t this just a sick day? TikTokers have jumped on a trend of lying in bed all day but they could be potentially harming their mental health in the process. #bedrotting is trending. Interesting. I’m going back to bed.
