WED 10-22Parent-Teacher Conferences start tonight, Powerpuff on Thursday, plenty of events coming up for Spirit Week.Thank you bus drivers for all they do, especially those that drop you off at 7AM and then again @9PM at night. Those are some long days.AI is getting a hold on how you search. Darien CT gets a new flag. And Woodland Volleyball beats Holy Cross in five sets.We're back on Monday!

Tomlin and Amato reminisce about the old radio days of Woodland Regional broadcasts, which leads them to ponder where all their old photos have gone.Looks like news broadcasts are about to change--AI has taken over the role of news caster which led the crew to believe they could all be replaced with AI, and probably for the better.Decker stumped the guys with the Mercy mascot, and sports were quiet for Monday but get ramped up for Tuesday.

Getting a late start because of road work in his neighborhood, Amato laments the inconvenience, but notes that he wanted the roads repaired so you can't have it both ways. But he did miss the memo on Suit Jacket Monday.Tomlin finds that there's a hyper realistic AI-controlled humanoid robot coming for our jobs and probably can do it better than us.Decker had a few sports updates, but Amato and Tomlin were able to help out. And only the Packers were successful for those who are keeping score.

With Decker and Tomlin on hiatus this morning, Dana Mulligan guest hosted on the sports desk, in a reprisal of the very first "rebooted" Morning Mayhem show from February 1, 2021.Want to keep pesky rodents from snacking on your porch pumpkins--vinegar to the rescue. ESPN can't broadcast from overseas UConn Womens Basketball opener due to the shutdown, may have to head stateside for that.Girls Soccer gets a rematch against Holy Cross, Girls Swim ekes out a win, and Volleyball take St. Paul in three.

Amato smells. Well, he smelled a skunk on the drive in to work, then began reminiscing about missing skunks (I don't know, I just write the cutlines for the episode). Tomlin finds a bunch of stories about ancient artifacts and dead bodies and Decker notes that post season play is here. The girls cross country team landed 3rd overall in the NVL with Leah Zainc finishing in 1st place, and the boys came in at 7th. Boys soccer missed post season by one match with their loss to Oxford.

It was National "I Love Lucy" Day, a testament to pure comedy that stands the test of time--funny is just funny. Daylight savings time could affect the twilight hours of Halloween, but won't, because it is after Halloween. Boys soccer inches closer to a playoff berth, and girls soccer celebrates the seniors.

Amato realizes that rain means grass grows, team determines whether bathing is worth it, and the Yellowjacket Volleyball Invitational Tournament champs stop by!

Well, hell hath frozen over as the weather reacted to the Giants win. Tomlin explores the discovery of the Ichthyosaurus "sword dragon" which was not a dinosaur but morphed into a mammal. Decker notes the Woodland Volleyball regular season sweep, which hasn't happened often in 20 years. And we learn that the Lewis Mills mascot is not the Sword Dragons.

Woodland has wide parking spaces and offer easy parking access. Amato tries to get 10-9 to be something fetch. Tomlin updates a new flag for Boca Raton which Miami Vice colorsNot too many sports for Thursday, but Decker laments the Giants game for tonight against the Eagles.

When is the last time you jumped into a giant leaf pile? Looks like that time is here again! Renayldo just made a billion dollars. And Woodland Cross Country keeps outpacing the field.

A Tuesday vibing like a Thursday, velcro shoes and Crocs. A saint is on display, AirBus overtakes Boeing, and China dives under the Artic Shelf. Today's mascot challenge: Newtown WarHawks (not Night Eagles).TIMER TEAM CAPTAINS: Blake Polaski, Arthur Schultz, Dawson Jack

Decker realizes that Columbus Day is still a week away, experts reassess how quickly AI will take over the world and Woodland sports is showing strength in the NVL.Sports team mascot count: 15:10 (wins/losses)

Get that during any study hall or right after the last bell!Jane Goodall has died, Thomas Pinchon releases a new book.Soccer Teams win and Red Sox lose.

Even with the slight tech glitches, the show must go on. I mean, it really doesn't, but we did anyway.Never knew what "rabbit, rabbit" was? That is answered today. How was your long car trips? I can't even explain the fondue and glacier touching segment.Woodland continues to dominate in sports, and the Red Sox pulled off an incredible "didn't-see-that-coming" win.

Too many apps, too few cameras. Hopefully we get this fixed for tomorrow. And what is up with the 6-7 phenomenon? New state law requires lunch served on half days, while NASA plans for a village on the moon. And if you are in the North East, you probably have picked a side in the Red Sox-Yankee Wild Card game.

iPhone has released the new iPhone 17 in a Pumpkin Spice flavored model with a new and improved selfie camera, AI gets into art, and Starfleet Command is planning on launching it's first "real" space aircraft carrier.

It's Fri'yay!! After a long week, the crew muses about all things techno and dorky, like prices of streaming services and lowering internet provider bills. Powerful stuff.

Live and uninterrupted, continuing their continuous school day show streak spanning three years.And even more impressive, the dance team captains--Julia Galasso, Payton Geary, and Genevieve Bandanza-- managed to find the show by walking around the building. Thank you to the dance team!#showmustgoon

The Woodland custodial staff does a great job keeping the hallway floors clean, but wouldn't it be even more helpful if the Stop and Shop robot mascot, Marty, pulled a shift late at night too. And speaking of mascots, the Morning Mayhem Show is looking for a mascot as well. And a flag design. Cheer Captains: Abby BeecherAva ArtesGigi OrzechowskiNatalie Strachan

Flannel Sheets (when is the right time to switch), more flags (there's always time to learn about vexology), and Cross Country Captains Leah and Logan Mack.

Getting to school on time is a like threading the traffic needle--five minutes early, good. Five minutes later, dead stop traffic. 10 minutes after that, good. Five minutes later, dead stop. And Volleyball Captains Nora Nemec and Hannah Mishler preview the upcoming season and highlight their team.

Do you you use the snooze button? Or are you a go-getter right form the first alarm? Interesting start to the new NFL season and we continue our serach for the most interesting flags.

I mean you knew it was coming eventually, and now it's here-Taylor and Travis sitting in a tree--you know the rest.
