August 21, 2012 We had a blast hanging out with Jo Dee Messina backstage at The Big O Music Fest. And, after Jo Dee got over her initial "Kizzy" shock, the two became fast friends. In fact, Kizzy told Jo Dee that she 's a big fan of her song "Lesson in Leavin" and the two belted out an impromptu duet. Luckily, our cameras were rolling! WATCH!
August 20, 2012 Jo Dee Messina wasn't quite sure what to think about it either! Saturday night, at The Big O Music Fest, Jaclyn and I were hanging out with Jo Dee Messina in the hospitality tent. Naturally, we told her that she had to meet Kizzy, who had just come back from her very own meet-n-greet with Blake "Honey Bee Buzz Buzz" Shelton. Needless to say, Jo Dee didn't know what hit her. This is a SCREAM!
August 17, 2012 Blake Shelton is coming to Owensboro in 24 hours and Kizzy is buzzing like a honey bee! LISTEN!!
August 14, 2012 Miss Kizzy wants some lovin' . . . from YOU! If you tune into The WBKR Waking Crew each weekday morning you have probably heard Kizzy. She has quickly become one of the most popular features of the show and she's now becoming popular all across the country. In fact, just a couple of weeks ago, Kizzy performed stand-up comedy in front of a crowd of 17,000 in Hotlanta. So, now, Miss Kizzy is going global with her first official Facebook fan page. And she wants YOU to LIKE it!
July 27, 2012 Country music superstar Trace Adkins is bringing his "Songs and Stories" Tour to The Centre in Evansville TONIGHT! It's going to be an awesome show and Kizzy, for one, sure is excited (or . . . "excitred" . . . as she often says on The WBKR Waking Crew). Just this morning, Kizzy called in to tell us just how "excitred" she is that Trace "Tall as a Sequioa Honkytonbadonkadonk" Adkins is coming to town. In fact, she has come down with heart palpitations, the cold sweats and a fever! It's a condition she calls "Fifty Shades of Trace!" LISTEN!

On Yesterday's Waking Crew Show Chad and I talked about New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg wanting to ban super-sized sugar soft drinks in the Big Apple. We had a Facebook Tad Poll to determine what you thought about it.
May 20, 2012 Last week, I hosted another Big O Yard Party in the front yard of the studio. We were very lucky to have a special guest there... Kizzy!!

Take a look as she, in a way only Kizzy can, introduces Chad to her kool-aid.

May 2, 2012 It is hard to believe it's time for Owensboro's famous International Barbecue Festival. A week from Friday it opens and all the great barbecue aromas and thick, blinding smoke will waft through downtown. WBKR will be broadcasting from the event on both days. My favorite year was 2009. I was joined on the air by Kizzy and on the streets by lovely Mrs. Moon.
