Weekend recap. America's favorite sodas. Who do you trust more for cooking tips - Your mom or a food influencer?

Another weekend in the books as we speed through Summer and get closer to Fall.

Very busy weekend for me with birthday dinners, parades, housework, Oktoberfest beers, and spending time with good friends.

Snuck in a Spooky Spin win or two, as well!

I am definitely going to spend a few hours working on the lawn today and maybe even putting up a few Halloween decorations.

In the news this morning, actress Hayden Panettiere has died at age 36, a couple of planes with the same callsign ended up on the same frequency and were heading on a collision course, multiple fights at the end of the Wisconsin State Fair end with several people getting arrested, a recall on a tomato bisque sold at Walmarts nationwide, a change for Lime riders in the Twin Cities after multiple street-takeovers the last few weekends, and teen pleads guilty to harassing a sea lion after the video went viral.

In sports, the Brewers took 3 out of 4 from the Dodgers this weekend, an update on Brice Turang's condition, Abner Uribe ends up on the 15 day IL, Joey Logano won on Saturday at Richmond, Von Miller signs with the Cowboys, Jamal Adams is out for the season with an knee injury, and a look at week 2 of the NFL preseason.

We talked about all the news from this past weekend's Disney D23 event and we also let you know what's on TV & streaming today/tonight.

A family on a beach in NJ recently found a MEGALODON tooth!!! And a kitten that was recently involved in a bank robbery now has a new fur-ever home!

Talked about the most popular sodas in America, based on Instacart data, and according to a new survey, 18% of Americans prefer to get cooking advice from a food "influencer" rather than from their own mother.

Elsewhere in sports, Tommy John died over the weekend, and a bunch of people have been trolling Jayden Daniels and his attempt to "own" the number 5.

And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman who is spray-painting her dead bushes so she doesn't get fined by her HOA, a school workbook created by A.I. has tons of errors, a former bowling coach in Iowa is charged with multiple felonies after an online sting, a #FloridaMan who attacked his neighbor with dog poop, and a woman who killed a guy while some rough foreplay.
