From a keynote speaker who went off-script at a local event, to a new Republican, to a decision on the Unicameral's least-favorite storytime reader, the political winds were humming yesterday!

Welcome to Cinnamon Meadows!

I talk with Brad Balukjian about his new book, "The Six Pack: On the Open Road in Search of Wrestlemania."

April Fool's Day's closed.  Moose out front should have told ya.

"We're having fun this morning."

Murrary from "Stranger Things" had plenty of time to write a book, since they take SO DAMN LONG between releasing new seasons of the Netflix series!

Nickelback guitarist Ryan Peake talks about playing to sold-out arenas while an Internet full of trolls accuses them of being sell-outs.

My favorite email of the morning came from Jennifer:  "I am appreciative of you even having Dane on your show. While you were flippant, at least the conversation took place."

While starting to deal with more fallout from the latest hysterics at the Unicameral, NU turned on the breaking news fire hose related to both the AD and President positions.  I needed help to deal with this, and called in Jim Rose and Gary Sadlemyer at different points in the morning.

What in theeeeee hell happened during yesterday's Unicameral session???

The hottest comic team in the country right now is the NCAA selection committee.  Then, I question why I'm the only one questioning why the President speaking at a big Women's Leadership Conference isn't a problem.  Finally, we discuss a little report that a major Omaha bridge is "falling apart."

What happens when the former lead guitarist for Newsboys steps up to the mic to sing lead?  Lincoln's Bryan Olesen is showing how it's done this season on NBC's "The Voice."

No, that's not ALL we talked about today.  We also discussed Aaron Rodgers, Katie Britt, Karen gangs in Omaha (pronunciation is everything), and more.

Hard not to feel a little sting with this breaking news.

In the stage production of "The Lion King" at the Orpheum, there's a lot going on under the costumes, as there's a level of humanity beneath the kingdom you see rising up the actors.  Such is the case with "Old Simba," Darian Sanders.
