Today is the day that our Padres take on the Chicago Cubs in the Wild Card round of the playoffs. We wanted to call our friends at US99 in Chicago this morning to see if we could do a little wager on the game, but we couldn't find the appropriate bet so we ended up just doing some trash talking instead.
Up and coming Country Singer Briley Steffes joined Melissa and Austin to talk about her song about US99, her rising career and more!
Before his Low Dough Show, George Birge talked saving money, cigars and dream collabs with Melissa & Austin!
Ryan McKiddy is the Assistant Program Director, Music Director, and On-Air Talent at iHeart Media's The Big 98 in Nashville, TN. Before arriving in Nashville, he honed his skill set as Music Director/Afternoon Host at 100.3 KCYY-FM in San Antonio, Texas, and just before that, he hosted weekends on US99 in Chicago. Throughout his journey, he has been recognized for his talents including most recently a 2024 CRS/Country Aircheck Award in the Assistant Program Director/Music Director category. Tom and Ryan will discuss his early success in radio, leaving Chicago for the first time, making the leap to Nashville, and dive into why radio is as essential as it ever has been.

Cody Johnson's music makes an impact far beyond the Country music charts. Always one to record songs he believes in, connects with and hopes will inspire, Johnson's fans have confirmed he's doing just that by expressing how his music has impacted — and even saved — their lives. During a recent chat with Audacy's Scotty Kay from US99, Johnson shared a story he heard from a fan in Australia who literally owed her life to one of his songs. “I had a lady in Australia [who] came to a meet and greet and she said, ‘the night that I was going to take my own life… I heard, ‘Human,' and I decided not to,” he shared. “I stood there with her and I cried and I thought, ‘Who cares about a #1 or a Platinum record? That's real. That's real music that went across the ocean and touched somebody.” While many of the life-chasing stories he hears are surrounding his life-affirming songs like “Human,” and “'Til You Can't,” there's also a number of love stories he's touched. Later in their chat, Scotty Kay introduced Johnson to DJ Dom Nagella, who was approached by a bi-racial couple to help them turn Johnson's song, "On My Way To You" into a cross-genre track for their wedding. “She was born and raised in Texas and he's Puerto Rican, so they wanted ‘On My Way To You,' with Marc Anthony,” Nagella explained before playing him the track. Johnson was all smiles listening to the mix. “I love Marc Anthony! That is freakin' cool, man! This is great.” He continued, “Puerto Rican is a little bit different than the Tejano Mexican culture that we have in Texas, and I'm so deeply rooted in that… That means a lot, that's really cool... Hey, maybe I'll make a Tejano album,” he laughed. Beaming with pride, Johnson reiterated, “It's not about getting #1 hits, it's not about getting Platinum records, it's not about getting awards, it's about making music that actually touches people — I say that from my whole heart, this is not an act.” If you're having suicidal thoughts, call the National Suicide Prevention at 988 to talk to a skilled, trained counselor at a crisis center in your area at any time. Audacy's I'm Listening initiative aims to encourage those who are dealing with mental health issues to understand they are not alone. Find a full list of additional resources here.

In the second hour, Laurence Holmes and Leila Rahimi were joined by Cubs outfielder Ian Happ to discuss the team's strong 9-6 start, its series win over the Dodgers recently, his new contract, baserunning and more. Later, US99 host Austin Huff stopped by to explain how he obtained LSU women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey's flashy jacket -- and where he'll be wearing it this weekend.
Justin Roman has done a lot during the 21st century: he hosts The MVP Game (sign up there to be a guest on the show) with Kenzie K (who was his fiancée when this was recorded); it's a super-fan Cubs game show (and a couple of Bears shows during the off season) on the Marquee Sports Network. He talks about his media and performing career, which includes the Vi3 boy band and their hit Eyes Closed so Tight before he started at B96 in 2004; producing music with the Jump Smokers and DJ Flipside (who also does the music for The MVP Game) and their popular remix My Flow So Tight. Roman explains how he got on the air at B96 when he was a super-fan, doing nights and afternoons for several years with Stylz then mornings at US99 in 2016 until they had to leave (get the full story in episode 2 of The Stylz & Roman Uncensored Podcast); being the entertainment host at the Chicago Bulls games; famous people he's met and toured with; why he likes Pitbull; success and failure; appearing with Kenzie K on the Windy City Live TV show and ABC 7, why he and Stylz did their podcast for only a year, why he's positive, and more.
