Hockey fans are a special breed. Near or far, they always seem to bring out the quirks when in an arena.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighters are known for beating the living hell out of each other with their fists. But it's a rare treat when they beat the living hell out of each other with their words.

Being president means countless photo opportunities and public appearances, most of them probably ones that one doesn't want to do. When President Barack Obama was at a polling location in Chicago promoting the midterm general elections and casting his ballot, he probably didn't plan on being threatened by someone about their girlfriend.

Local reporters often get a bad rap for generally being terrible, and rightfully so. Jared Goodell, though, wasn't going to stand for the establishment shutting his reporting down.

Sports fans are a strange bunch. They're super passionate about their teams and all thing related. And they're willing to step outside and fight at any moment. The co-hosts of the "Doug & Wolf Show," a sports talk show that airs on Phoenix-based 98.7 KTAR, nearly came to blows Thursday while on the air.

We took a call from Shane this morning, who does a sideshow act including laying on a bed of nails. It reminded us of the time five years ago when Producer Joe and Hot Wings did the same thing when a sideshow act came through the radio station.

In June on "The Free Beer & Hot Wings Morning Show," we watched an oddly inspirational video from a bearded, shirtless, only-underwear-wearing man in New York. He was asked a number of questions by a tourist and his answers were both surprising and hilarious at the same time. So, when we traveled to New Jersey for our live show with 105.7 The Hawk a week or so later, we had the perfe

Poor Corey. He just doesn't get it. Corey was recently a contestant on the daytime TV game show "The Price Is Right." During the opening round, the contestants were guessing the price of a hammock. Yup, your typical, average, everyday hammock. A few hundred bucks? Possibly a grand if it's a super nice one? Sure, that sounds about right; but not to Corey.

Anyone who was a child of the '90s at some point probably watched the NBC television show "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air." You may remember the show: Will (played by Will Smith) was sent to Los Angeles' affluent Bel Air neighborhood from west Philadelphia to live with his rich aunt and uncle and their children.
