   We remember the great George Wendt, America's favorite barfly, Norm Peterson on Cheers.  Wendt had all kinds of ties to Kansas City and is remembered as a great family man and one of the all time great characters in the history of television.    While Trump was working on Cap Hill for the Big Bill, he kept bringing up Joe Biden's auto pen signatures and it's pretty clear now a huge investigation is about to begin.  Who exactly ran our country the last four years?    Victor Davis Hanson, on a podcast, muses that Kansas City could be a new destination for the FBI to have headquarters outside DC.  If true, this could be thousands of jobs here.    The Royals have another weak night at the plate and fall to the Giants, 3-2.  KU is having an incredible baseball season and their coach has just won a huge award.  And an incredible, global cycling event is here this holiday weekend and it sounds like the toughest event ever.  

Wendt, known as "Norm" from Cheers, passed at the age of 77. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On May 20, 2025, George Wendt—the beloved actor best known for playing Norm on Cheers—died at the age of 76. His passing marked the end of an era for fans of the iconic sitcom and the golden age of network television. But beyond the barstool banter and sitcom stardom, Wendt's legacy lives on as a symbol of blue-collar charm, comedic timing, and the kind of everyman warmth that made Norm a household name across generations.
