Tuesday, September 23: Foo Fighters Surprise CT, and Comedian Drew Lynch on the Phone

Heather admitted to closing her shop early, driving across the state, and getting in line for Foo Fighters tickets. She then called in to share that she was one of the lucky ones to get tickets for tonight’s show. (27:51) 

Comedian Drew Lynch was on the phone with Chaz and AJ this morning to talk about his viral clip, after a member of the audience had a heart attack during his set. Drew shared that it all happened at the beginning of his set, and the miracle of watching strangers in a room come together to save the man’s life as first responders made their way in. (34:43)
