Today's show is a follow up on yesterday's where we heard the story of a McCartney concertgoer who was sat near someone with a support dog, and that went exactly as you'd expect given the circumstances. Are you tired of seeing dogs in public spaces they shouldn't be at?

On the program today, as we bear down on the Thanksgiving holiday, we ask how much you enjoy the traditional American Thanksgiving cuisine, should voter ID be mandatory, and we hear the story of someone who brought a dog, a support dog at that, not a service dog, to the Paul McCartney concert in Buffalo recently. Why?

President Donald Trump has said he is not ruling out sending U.S. troops to Venezuela as the administration wages war against drug cartels. We don't know what the President's true motive for potentially putting U.S. boots on the ground in the country would be, whether it be a drug crackdown or regime change in the country. Regardless, what say you? Would you support this move by the President if it were to happen?

On the show today, we speak with a board member of the Buffalo Jills Alumni Association, Lori Ann Marino to talk about her time as a Jill, and we here from numerous other former Jills. Should the Jills be brought back? Also, with Paul McCartney performing in the Key Bank Center, are you going to the show? Also, is there an artist you wish you saw in concert but never did and you kick yourself to this day? Conversely, is there an artist still touring you'd like to see?

When is the appropriate team to start thinking about Christmas? As soon as the leaves begin to turn or after Thanksgiving?

He was on at the end of yesterday's show right after the news broke, but Phil Nanula of Essex Homes rejoins the show for a follow up on the the temporary pause of New York's electric mandate.

On the show today, we talk bad rideshare experiences you've had in the first hour, a setback in New York State's electrification push in the last hour, and sandwiched in between, after seeing the film 'Nuremberg' in theaters recently, Tom takes your calls on your favorite WWII movie, and, is WWII even relevant anymore, at least to people under 50?

Remember the mandate passed down by New York State banning gas hookups in new builds starting January 1st, 2026? Well, the state has agreed to delay that phase of the electrification plan. Phil Nanula of Essex Homes, who has been fighting this electrification push every step of the way, joins the show to discuss this further

Chris Krok fills in for Bauerle and today, we talk the government shutdown. It is winding down now, and with that said, what did you gain from it? Also, we talk high housing prices, Veteran's Day, Zohran Mamdani's comments on the acquittal of Daniel Penny, and more.

Snow has finally befallen Western New York, meteorologist Andy Parker joins the show to fill us all in on what we can expect as these lake effect bands persist through the next day and change.

Today's topic is pretty straight forward, are beards still cool in 2025? The topic was spurred because one prominent member of President Trump's cabinet has outed himself as anti beard, at least for U.S. Troops...Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. The Secretary of War has has vowed to purge the military of 'beardos' with strict grooming rules. Where are you on beards? Are they still cool in 2025?

We already did the ghost show exactly two weeks prior to the recording of this program, but we figured the first installment of the ghost show was so nice, we had to do it twice. On this Halloween, we take more of your real ghost stories.

After talking about the youth yesterday and whether they had a work ethic deficit or a hope deficit that they could actually achieve their American Dream, we spend some time today asking what the American Dream even is. How do you define the American Dream? Is the American Dream as we know it dead?

We often hear about how young people are unwilling to work these days. Is it that young people lack work ethic, or do they lack hope that things will turn out okay in the future given the deck has been somewhat stacked against them with the rise in cost for things like education, housing, and so on?

Tom concludes today's program by hearing how some of his callers focus on their work/life balance.

On the show, we talk advice. What is some advice you've given or received that was good? Also, conversely, have you ever given/received bad advice? Also, we talk about a story that broke today, Portland Trail Blazers Head Coach Chauncey Billups, Miami Heat Guard Terry Rozier, and Cleveland Cavaliers Assistant Coach Damon Jones were all arrested in a major illegal gambling bust. Billups allegedly was used as a 'face card' to attract high rollers to participate in fixed poker games. Rozier allegedly gave nonpublic information to conspirators to help them cash on player prop bets, Jones was named as a defendant in both cases. What do you make of this story?

You're not seeing double, we picked up today right where we left off with yesterday's show about the falling birthrate in America and what is to blame for it.

On the program today, we discuss sexless marriages to open things up, and following that, in a similar vein, the birthrate in the United States is historically low, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently categorized the issue as a 'national security threat' and warned it is not high enough to ensure the American population remains stable. Why are people not having kids as much as they used to?

Today, we started off by reading off a hoard of headlines about media President Trump, which led up to talk about critical thinking, it's a skill we'd all like but not a lot of people actually have it. How do you teach someone or yourself develop critical thinking skills?

On the show today, since many of us are bummed about the Buffalo Bills dropping their second consecutive game against the Atlanta Falcons, are you or someone you know one of those whose mood is contingent on how their sports teams play? Also, we talk about some articles that popped up on Tom's news feeds today, one about Israel nominating him for next year's Nobel Peace Prize 'citing Trump's alleged role in diplomatic efforts and saving lives.' What?? And another article titled 'Can America recover from Trump? Here's what new data says' Why is the media so unwilling to call balls and strikes with President Trump.

Governor Hochul is urging New Yorkers to stay up to date on their COVID boosters, so we talk about that a little bit today, if you've gotten a booster, will you get the most up to date?

Today's show is a continuation of yesterday, , taking more of your calls on the electrification of New York State

With each passing day, we inch closer to phase one of New York State's push toward blanket electrification. Starting in just about two months, new builds will be prohibited from have gas hookups. As we draw closer to phase one, where do you stand on this issue?

Today, we talk about civility, or the lack thereof, in today's society. There are some courtesies that have seemingly been lost to time, for example, writing handwritten thank you notes. What are some things that boomers used to do that people should start doing again that would go a long way in making for a much more civil society?

Today marks the two year anniversary of a series of armed incursions into Southern Israel carried out by Hamas and several other militant groups. We spend some time talking about that today, do you buy the official narrative of what happened there?

Last month, the Surgeon General of Florida made the state's intent known in regard to eliminating all vaccine mandates, what do you think about that?

On the show today, we pick up where Joe Beamer left off, talking about 'The Buffalo News'. They announced today they will no longer offer a Monday print version of the paper beginning November 3rd. Is this a big deal to you, does 'The Buffalo News' even matter to you anymore? When did it stop mattering to you?
