DaWack In Da Morning

Show Title
“Facelifts, Ferraris & Fitted Sheet Fights”
Show Notes
It’s Monday, June 1, 2026, and DaWack in da Morning kicks off the month with holidays, history, music, celebrity birthdays, showbiz buzz, stupid facts, and horoscopes that should probably come with a warning label.
This episode celebrates everything from National Say Something Nice Day and National Game Show Day to Go Barefoot Day, Dinosaur Day, Flip a Coin Day, and the official start of Atlantic Hurricane Season — because apparently June wanted to arrive wearing flip-flops and carrying a weather emergency kit.
On the birthday list: Morgan Freeman, Heidi Klum, Alanis Morissette, Tom Holland, Pat Boone, Ronnie Wood, and more — including a reminder that Spider-Man is now old enough to complain about back pain.
The show also takes a ride through This Day in History, featuring Anne Boleyn getting crowned, Boston Harbor getting grounded by the British, CNN launching 24-hour news, GM filing for bankruptcy, and the Universal Studios fire wiping out a shocking amount of music history. Then it’s over to This Day in Music, where Dolly Parton heads to Nashville, The Rolling Stones hit America, The Beatles release Sgt. Pepper’s, David Bowie enters the chat, and the Eagles tell everybody to take it easy.
In the Show Biz Buzz, Zack digs into Jeff Probst talking reality TV betting spoilers, Rosie O’Donnell’s pricey facelift, the huge launch of Dutton Ranch, Ninja Warrior heading toward the Olympics, and Jennie Garth needing hypnosis to survive Dancing with the Stars nerves.
Then it’s time for Shooting the Bull, featuring a study that says going back to work after a holiday may literally be bad for your heart, New Yorkers combining chess with boxing because apparently one stressful hobby wasn’t enough, modern singles refusing to date outside a 30-minute drive, Guy Fieri giving burger tips like he’s launching a meat-based space mission, and Ferrari unveiling an electric family car for people whose grocery getter costs more than a house.
Plus: whack facts, lawn-mowing warning signs, weird camping items, and DaWack’s hilarious June 1 horoscopes, where Gemini enters a group chat with itself, Leo demands a parade, Virgo loses a war with the junk drawer, and Aries gets defeated by a fitted sheet.

“Chocolate Chips, Flying Mickey & Elf Ears: The May 15th Madness Episode”
Show Notes
On this episode of DaWack in da Morning, Zack Da Wack fires up the May 15th weirdness machine with holidays, birthdays, history, music, showbiz buzz, stupid science, and enough oddball facts to make your coffee question its life choices.
We celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, National Pizza Party Day, Bring Flowers to Someone Day, National NASCAR Day, Work From Home Day, Dinosaur Day, and a few serious observances including Peace Officers Memorial Day, Endangered Species Day, and awareness days for HG, MPS, and Kangaroo Care.
Then it’s the May 15 birthday roll call featuring L. Frank Baum, Madeleine Albright, Trini Lopez, Chazz Palminteri, George Brett, Dan Patrick, Emmitt Smith, Ray Lewis, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Birdy, and more — all getting the DaWack-style treatment.
In This Day in History, Cape Cod gets the most obvious name ever, John Adams sends the federal government to Washington, Lincoln creates the Department of Agriculture, Standard Oil gets busted up, Mickey and Minnie take off in Plane Crazy, McDonald’s starts as barbecue, Sputnik 3 launches, and California makes same-sex marriage history.

Show Notes
The Alcatraz Coyote Cupcake Incident
It’s Monday, May 11th, 2026, and DaWack in da Morning is entering another dimension — one where calories wear disguises, cupcakes have legal representation, coyotes swim to Alcatraz, and the universe starts the week by tracking dirt across your peace.
In this episode, Zack Da Wack runs down the May 11 holiday lineup, including National Eat What You Want Day, National Twilight Zone Day, National Women’s Checkup Day, National Foam Rolling Day, Hostess CupCake Day, National Mocha Torte Day, World Ego Awareness Day, National Technology Day, and Somerset Day. That means today we honor cake, coffee, medical appointments, haunted printers, painful exercise tubes, and egos so big they need their own ZIP code.
Then it’s time for the May 11 birthday list, featuring Irving Berlin, Salvador Dalí, Richard Feynman, Mort Sahl, Eric Burdon, Pam Ferris, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Martha Quinn, Tim Blake Nelson, Jeffrey Donovan, Cam Newton, Prince Royce, Blac Chyna, Coi Leray, Lana Condor, Sabrina Carpenter, and Yuki Tsunoda. It’s a birthday table loaded with songwriters, surrealists, scientists, comedians, actors, athletes, pop stars, and enough candles to make the fire marshal clear his throat.
The show also remembers notable May 11 death anniversaries, including John D. Rockefeller, Lester Flatt, Bob Marley, Chester Gould, Fritz Pollard, Douglas Adams, Noel Redding, Floyd Patterson, Peggy Lipton, Jerry Stiller, Norman Lloyd, and Susan Backlinie — with respect, nostalgia, and just enough DaWack seasoning to keep the room awake.
In Stupid News, the planet continues behaving like it lost its instructions. A coyote swims to Alcatraz like a furry prison-island athlete, real-life WKRP call letters arrive in Cincinnati, a kitten gets rescued from tornado rubble, a bear tries to break into a bakery for cinnamon rolls, Jimmy Fallon bites a microphone at the Miami Grand Prix, teens in Argentina go full animal mode, and a PGA golfer takes his shirt off near a gator-filled hazard.
Plus, Shooting the Bull brings dog-sized World Cup jerseys, Atlanta’s surprisingly social “Death Cafe,” Mother’s Day research proving households would crash and burn without Mom, Tripadvisor’s top tourist attractions, funny tweets from women, Ask Jeeves finally shutting down, whack facts, signs it’s time to move out of your parents’ house, and classic Momisms just in time for Mother’s Day.
And finally, the stars get dragged back into the studio for the official DaWack in da Morning Horriblescopes for Monday, May 11th, 2026 — where Ta**us protects snacks and sanity, Gemini has 47 brain tabs open, Leo enters like an unbooked lead singer, Scorpio smells nonsense before it logs in, Sagittarius flirts with bad ideas, and Aries starts the week like a lawn mower full of espresso.
Episode Vibe
Cupcakes, Twilight Zone energy, haunted technology, birthday chaos, Bob Marley, Jerry Stiller, Alcatraz coyotes, bakery bears, microphone biting, Mother’s Day truth bombs, weird facts, and Monday horoscopes with absolutely no emotional support from the universe.

Show Notes
Coke, Comets & No-Sock Nonsense
It’s Friday, May 8th, 2026, and DaWack in da Morning is rolling into the weekend with soda, pie, donkeys, movie disasters, music history, weird facts, questionable footwear, and the official no-bologna DaWack Horriblescopes.
In this episode, Zack Da Wack celebrates a packed holiday lineup, including National Have a Coke Day, National Coconut Cream Pie Day, National No Socks Day, World Donkey Day, Victory in Europe Day, World Ovarian Cancer Day, Iris Day, National Knock Out Rose Day, and Free Trade Day. It’s the only holiday list where soda, pie, flowers, donkeys, global commerce, and bare ankles all somehow end up in the same room.
Then it’s time for the May 8 birthday list, featuring David Attenborough turning 100, plus Toni Tennille, Philip Bailey, Alex Van Halen, Melissa Gilbert, Darren Hayes, Enrique Iglesias, Domhnall Gleeson, Olivia Culpo, and shout-outs to Don Rickles and Harry Truman. Expect candles, classic stars, falsettos, Van Halen drums, and enough birthday energy to make the cake file for hazard pay.
The show also remembers notable May 8 deaths, including Dana Plato, Eddy Arnold, Roy Horn, and Fred Ward — with the usual DaWack mix of respect, nostalgia, and just enough edge to keep the room awake.
In movies, May 8 brings Hot Pursuit, Deep Impact, Star Trek, and another Hot Pursuit, proving Hollywood has given this date vacation disasters, giant comets, space reboots, buddy-comedy chaos, and Morgan Freeman as the calmest possible president during the end of the world.
This Day in Music History takes us through The Supremes, Sam Cooke, The Guess Who, The Beatles releasing Let It Be, The Jackson 5 releasing ABC, Carole King, John Sebastian, Steve Miller Band, Vangelis, Aerosmith, and Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. That’s Motown, soul, rock, pop, TV themes, slow-motion running music, scarf-screaming, and syllables moving faster than your closed captions.
Plus, Zack gets into Shooting the Bull, including Chanel’s barely-there sandals, strange “Goblin Gossip,” animal-inspired dating labels, money-saving tips, a cruise ship with a floating theme park, whack facts, bad reasons to allow drinking at work, and the kind of comedy bits that make Human Resources quietly close their laptop.
And finally, the stars get dragged back into court with the official DaWack in da Morning Horriblescopes for Friday, May 8th, 2026 — where Ta**us wants snacks and silence, Gemini turns conversation into a customer-service incident, Scorpio becomes a locked drawer with feelings, Sagittarius risks becoming evidence, and Aries enters the day like a workplace weather event.
Episode Vibe
Soda, coconut cream pie, no socks, donkeys, birthday candles, Deep Impact, Star Trek, Beatles history, goblin gossip, cruise ship regret, questionable life choices, and Friday horoscopes with absolutely no emotional support from the universe.

May the Wack Be With You
It’s Monday, May 4th, 2026, and DaWack in da Morning is blasting out of the low-rent, rammin’ jammin’ Nut Hut Studios with a full tank of weird, wacky, and mildly unstable morning-show energy.
This episode celebrates Star Wars Day, because May the Fourth only comes once a year — unless you’re the kind of person who owns three lightsabers and corrects people on Wookiee pronunciation. Zack Da Wack also runs through the May 4th holiday lineup, including National Orange Juice Day, International Firefighters’ Day, Bird Day, Anti-Bullying Day, International Respect for Chickens Day, National Candied Orange Peel Day, National Renewal Day, Melanoma Monday, National Weather Observers Day, and World Give Day.
Then it’s time for the May 4th celebrity birthdays, featuring Richard Jenkins, Jackie Jackson, Mick Mars, Randy Travis, Will Arnett, Mike Dirnt, Erin Andrews, Lance Bass, Rory McIlroy, Shameik Moore, and a nod to the legendary Audrey Hepburn. Expect birthday cake, questionable candles, and enough punchlines to make the frosting nervous.
The show also takes a respectful DaWack-style look at May 4th celebrity and notable death anniversaries, including Moe Howard, Cathryn Damon, Bonnie Lee Bakley, Fred Baur, Dom DeLuise, Adam “MCA” Yauch, Ellen Albertini Dow, and Don Shula.
In This Day in History, May 4th brings everything from Peter Minuit arriving in Manhattan, Rhode Island dumping King George, and Abraham Lincoln being laid to rest, to Al Capone heading to prison, the first Grammy Awards, the Freedom Riders, Kent State, Margaret Thatcher, the I Love You computer virus, and movie releases like Sixteen Candles, The Mummy Returns, Spider-Man 3, and The Avengers.
Plus, in This Day in U.S. Music, we hit Stevie Wonder, Grand Funk Railroad, Queen, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Run-DMC, Jennifer Lopez, Metallica vs. Napster, Niall Horan, and Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” — because apparently May 4th is not just Star Wars Day, it’s also a playlist with legal issues and bass.
And finally, it’s Stupid News, starring Chonkers the giant sea lion, a teenager accused of licking a vending machine straw, a prom entrance in the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, and a Vermont sheep that had six lambs instead of twins — because nature apparently accepts bulk orders.

Star Wars jokes, orange juice, chickens with self-esteem, celebrity birthdays, weird history, music madness, movie nostalgia, Chonkers the sea lion, and just enough stupidity to make the galaxy file a noise complaint.

DaWack in da Morning, May the Fourth, Star Wars Day, stupid news, comedy podcast, celebrity birthdays, this day in history, music history, funny podcast, weird news, Chonkers, Wienermobile, May 4th.

It’s May 1st, and DaWack in da Morning is kicking off the month with a holiday lineup that sounds like America threw a calendar into a blender and hit “turbo.”
In this episode, we celebrate May Day, Law Day, Loyalty Day, National Chocolate Parfait Day, National No Pants Day, Purebred Dog Day, Sauvignon Blanc Day, and Lei Day — because nothing says “springtime” like patriotism, legal paperwork, fancy dogs, wine vocabulary, and people refusing to wear pants.
We also run down May 1 birthdays, including Judy Collins, Rita Coolidge, Ray Parker Jr., Tim McGraw, Wes Anderson, Jamie Dornan, Charli D’Amelio, and Rema — from folk legends and country stars to TikTok fame and ghost-busting theme song royalty.
Then it’s a respectful-but-DaWack look at May 1 death anniversaries, including David Livingstone, Spike Jones, Ayrton Senna, Olympia Dukakis, Gordon Lightfoot, and more.
Plus, we hit This Day in History, where Great Britain becomes official, the Empire State Building opens, a U-2 spy plane gets shot down, Amtrak starts rolling, and Obama announces the death of Osama bin Laden.
And in This Day in Music History, Johnny Cash walks the line, Herman’s Hermits top the charts, Deep Purple gives every guitar-store employee a national anthem, and May 1 proves it has more musical receipts than expected.
Finally, we close it out with the official DaWack in da Morning Horriblescopes — where Ta**us needs snacks, Gemini needs a filter, Leo needs applause, Scorpio serves ghost-lawyer energy, and Aries may become the reason somebody says, “Can we not do this today?”
Episode vibe: May Day chaos, no pants energy, celebrity birthdays, history, music, horoscopes, and just enough nonsense to make the calendar nervous.

On this episode of DaWack in Da Morning, DaWack dives headfirst into another pile of weird, wild, and wonderfully stupid news from the past couple of days.
We’re talking about:

A loose Florida alligator turning a parking lot into Jurassic Valet
A 1-in-50-million split-color lobster showing off like the Beyoncé of shellfish
A Michigan guy winning $500,000 from a birthday lottery ticket from his sister
The legendary “Unicycle Granny” still rolling strong at 69
Three baby rabbits accidentally booking themselves a trip to a North Sea oil rig
Authorities in North Carolina searching for a “really big pig”
And a Maryland lottery ticket with more plot twists than a daytime soap

It’s the kind of episode that proves once again the planet is unsupervised, the animals are doing whatever they want, and normal news is for cowards.
DaWack in Da Morning — where the headlines are real, but they really shouldn’t be.
