Wednesday 12/8 Live Blog

A BIG Jon & Mary in the Morning "Happy Birthday!" to the great Sammy Davis Jr., born on this date in 1925. While Sammy's body is no longer with us, we hope to see you at a surprise party for his glass eye later on this evening. (no gifts, please)

We continued the stocking-stuffed fun with Woods Floral & Gifts, Cool River, and Fays Fun & Learning. Listen every morning through the 22nd for your chance to win!

Day One of Service League's 12 Days of Christmas Cash Raffle made Patty Trepanier a winner of $100 in holiday cash. We're working our way all the way up to a $1200 winner, and tickets are still available! Stop by Ma & Pa's, Philly's on 4th, Kremer Pharmacy, Jet Stream, and the K107.1 studios.

It was on this date 30 years ago that John Lennon was shot and killed outside his apartment in New York City. Keith Elliot Greenberg is the author of December 8, 1980: The Day John Lennon Died. He joined us to talk about that day, the near misses, and a short history of the Beatles before and since.
