I love Rock Fest. I miss being there. I had such a great time. But man, am I glad to be home and poop in my own toilet, shower in my own shower, and sleep in my own bed. Jean's out this morning as she went to AC/DC last night in Madison. So, I ran a couple of the interviews we recorded while in the radio booth at Rock Fest including my conversations with the Autumn Kings, Kami Kehoe, and Story of the Year! In the news this morning, the explosive diarrhea has been traced back to some lettuce, the WI DNR extends their air quality advisory until noon today, David Crowley is back in the race for Governor of WI after getting an endorsement from Tony Evers, a man drowned in the Chippewa River after fleeing from police, and a start-up company is taking orders on survival pods! In sports, the Brewers restart the regular season with a sweep of the Marlins, Spain beats Argentina to claim the World Cup title and they got PAID by FIFA…which might be why they're trying to sell all that grass from the field in New Jersey(which isn't going over too well in the Garden State). Let you know what's on TV & streaming today/tonight and talked about the most-watched series on Netflix from the last four years. Plus, is Darius Rucker calling it a career? Today happens to be the anniversary of the release of the original "Neverending Story" movie…which lines up nicely with this story about a pony that almost suffered the same fate at Artax, but was rescued by a fire department in PA. And speaking of nice saves, check out this guy who used his own vehicle to stop a runaway vehicle in Washington. Elsewhere in the world of sports, Joey Logano gets his first win of the NASCAR season, Connor Bedard gets a contract extension, Cam Skattebo scares Giants fans by trying to do a flip at FanFest, Saquon Barkley's house gets robbed, Conor McGregor talks about the injuries he sustained during his last fight, and apparently…Madison Square Garden keeps a list of artists that may be difficult to deal with. In today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy in Texas who just got his 12th OWI, a #FloridaMan who tried switching seats with his passenger after getting pulled over, a guy who fell into the tank of a porta potty and had to be cut out by a fire department, a woman who got busted with drugs hidden all over & in her body, a woman who was driving around naked with a bunch of drugs & guns in her car.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Chicago Blackhawks remained in rebuilding mode during the 2025-26 season, finishing last in the Central Division for the fourth consecutive year. While another playoff berth was never expected, Neil Smith and Vic Morren discuss why there are encouraging signs throughout the organization. From Connor Bedard's continued development under new head coach Jeff Blashill to an impressive collection of future draft picks and a stronger defensive identity, the Blackhawks appear to be laying the foundation for a return to contention in the years ahead.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] The Blackhawks are officially eliminated from playoff contention on April 2 after another season at the bottom of the Central Division. Neil and Vic discuss why expectations remained modest entering the year despite Jeff Blashill taking over behind the Chicago bench, and why the rebuild appears to be progressing in the right direction.[00:00:45] Neil explains that Chicago's long-term plan remains focused on accumulating elite young talent before aggressively adding veteran pieces. Connor Bedard continues his development, showing significant improvement defensively under Blashill while maturing into the franchise cornerstone the Blackhawks envisioned.[00:01:00] The discussion turns to Chicago's impressive collection of future assets. The Blackhawks own nine selections in the 2026 NHL Draft, including two first-round picks and three second-round picks, while also holding the possibility of multiple first-round selections again in 2027, giving General Manager Kyle Davidson tremendous flexibility to continue building the roster.[00:01:45] Neil and Vic review Chicago's offseason contract priorities. Connor Bedard headlines the restricted free agent class, while defenseman Kevin Korchinski also requires a new contract. The panel expects Bedard's extension to be one of the organization's easiest decisions after his continued growth.[00:02:00] Defensively, the Blackhawks show noticeable improvement. Their penalty kill becomes one of the NHL's best, while goals against decline from the previous season despite still finishing above three goals allowed per game. Neil credits Jeff Blashill for establishing stronger defensive habits throughout a young roster.[00:02:30] The conversation shifts to the changing leadership within the organization following the departures of longtime veterans Nick Foligno, Jason Dickinson, and Connor Murphy. With Connor Bedard now wearing an "A," the Blackhawks officially enter a new era centered around their emerging young core.[00:03:00] Neil and Vic evaluate the supporting cast around Bedard, highlighting productive seasons from Tyler Bertuzzi and Ryan Donato while acknowledging that Chicago still lacks the overall depth necessary to compete consistently with the NHL's top teams.[00:03:30] The episode concludes with optimism about Chicago's future. Although the rebuild is far from complete, the Blackhawks possess a deep prospect pool, significant draft capital, an improving defensive structure, and one of the league's brightest young stars in Connor Bedard, giving the organization reason to believe brighter days are approaching.
Jeff Hatthorn joins the show! Does Jeff have hope that the Pirates make the playoffs? He believes they can make it especially if Paul Skenes pitches better in the second half. He also points out that Braxton Ashcraft is entering uncharted territory regarding innings pitched. Jeff also says he does not care what it costs for someone like Josh Hader or Aroldis Chapman because everything else on the team is there. Who is more likely to be cut: Roman Wilson or Mason Rudolph? Status quo on everything related to Jason Robertson. Could the Penguins offer sheet Connor Bedard?
7-14 Fan Morning Show 7am Hour Jeff Hatthorn joins the show! Does Jeff have hope that the Pirates make the playoffs? He believes they can make it especially if Paul Skenes pitches better in the second half. He also points out that Braxton Ashcraft is entering uncharted territory regarding innings pitched. Jeff also says he does not care what it costs for someone like Josh Hader or Aroldis Chapman because everything else on the team is there. Who is more likely to be cut: Roman Wilson or Mason Rudolph? Status quo on everything related to Jason Robertson. Could the Penguins offer sheet Connor Bedard? Crowley says that he would not play Mason Rudolph at all in the preseason. Will Howard and Drew Allar should get the majority of the reps because they are the young, drafted players. Kaboly said that Rudolph is going to stay on the roster. Is he right? Quarterback talk in July. Who wants to be smarter than a plumber? South Side Jake apologizes for missing last week's show. I got a hockey question wrong. The guys get one question right. The MLB had the youngest player ever drafted who then actually played for the Pirates in the 1979 season. Dorin still cannot believe that WVU beat Pitt last year. Larry Fitzgerald made comments during a recent interview and buried WVU football. He is normally level headed and has well thought out answers. But he just straight up buried them.
Before the NHL offseason kicks back into high gear, we catch up on the biggest storylines around the league with The Fourth Period's David Pagnotta.

We also discuss whether first-round pick Viggo Björck has a legitimate shot to make the Jets out of training camp, examine the trade speculation surrounding Elias Pettersson in Vancouver, look at where top remaining free agents Anthony Mantha, Eeli Tolvanen and Vladimir Tarasenko could land and wrap up with the latest on Connor Bedard's shoulder injury and what it could mean for the Blackhawks heading into the season.
