It’s a high-energy Friday on the Need to Know Morning Show! Hosts Kevin Flynn and Alex Taylor kick off the weekend with a mix of sports triumphs and political absurdity. From the North Dakota Fighting Hawks’ shutout victory in the hockey regionals to the chaotic, tequila-soaked insights of spring breakers in Florida, the team explores the massive gap between the "real world" and the Washington swamp.
Special guest Scott Hennen checks in live from a tractor-filled White House South Lawn to discuss National Ag Day, while we go behind the scenes of the Haiti Eye Mission with Dr. Lance Bergstrom. We also break down the Olympic Committee’s landmark decision on biological males in women’s sports and connect the dots on who is really funding the nationwide protest machine. Grab your coffee—it’s time to get up to speed.
