First of all… thank YOU for letting us have a little fun together every day!

Turns out it might actually be good for your health. A new report says adults who make time to “play”, meaning anything fun, silly, creative, or carefree, tend to be happier, healthier and way less stressed. Less stressed? Say less...

And the key is that “play” doesn’t mean toys or playgrounds. It’s a mindset. Laugh with friends, try something creative, dance in the kitchen, crack a joke, or just do something that makes you feel a little like a kid again.

Life can get serious fast… so the people who stay curious, spontaneous and open to fun are the ones who are able to hit those curveballs a bit better.

So go ahead and act a little goofy today. 🤪 It’s basically doctor’s orders!

I love music. It’s really what got me into radio to begin with. You should see my record collection: from Michael Jackson and Elton John, to Led Zeppelin and The Stones, to old school hip-hop and dance music ... (Well you get the idea!)
