CISN in the Morning

It's something all parents on social media face, PARENT SHAMING! We talk about your stories about it and hear why Thomas Rhett got in some hot water over what he did online. We also hear from our buddy Peter Burgess the freezing father, and how his cold campout for the Stollery Radiothon is going. We also talk about the California fella who did some serious licking. 

We took a call from a friend of Chris' about her new family policy, screen free Sundays. Could you do it? We also reached out to the kiddies going back to school and asked how their holiday break was. And looking for love? We talk to matchmaker, Wanda, from Tessa Lauren about what you can do to make your 2019 love life even better!   

We found the best psychic in town, Sista Love the Drag Queen. She joined us to chat everything 2019. Everyone has the once word or phrase that grinds their gears when someone mispronounces, so we talk about yours. And what shameful thing did you do during the xmas holidays? Plus we chat about how your grandparents got their weird nickname! 

Inspired by the warm weather and by the Netflix hit, Bird Box, Matt takes to the hill to kick off the #birdboxchallenge. It goes exactly how you'd think it would go. We also talk swearing thanks to Justin Moore & search for Edmonton's greatest hill!   

HAPPY NEW YEAR! We kick off the New Year by going over how the holidays were, then giving each other the resolutions we think they deserve. We also hear from friend of the show, Denill, who shares his super cool New Year’s tradition. Plus Jack gives us a recap of how cat sitting Matt's kitty went!  

The big man himself, Santa, join us to talk to all the little boys and girls. Heck, we even found out what Chris, Jack & Matt want for Christmas. We also had our final Christmas Wish, the sotry of an amazing little girl, Jenna. Merry Christmas, everyone! 

Today we determined the most popular Christmas song in Edmonton thanks to your votes. It’s a shocker to say the least! We also get an update from Hudson, the boy who received a Christmas wish last week, from his parents about how he's doing and how the t-shirt sale are. And we wrap things up by chatting about mom and her super power!

We got a text from a listener about her friends that is always going over the top with her gifts. We talked with you about how to deal with that (if at all). Plus, we get into groundings. Who in Edmonton has been grounded the longest? We also have yet another amazing Christmas Wish for Scott and his family! 

Story out of Ottawa, a group of kids are out of their backyard rink because a group of neighbours called it an "eyesore". This got everyone fired up about their backyard rinks and Chris tells a tale of his rink in a blink. We also talk about the "Adulting" classes that need to be taught in schools and hear why watching someone elses dogs can lead to puppies. 

Time for another amazing CISN Christmas wish! This time Vanessa gets suprised with something special. We also talk about what you quit cold turkey after Rolling Stones guitarist quit boozing after 40 years out of the blue. And Matt is trying to pawn off his cat on someone while he's out of town for Christmas. 

We all have pet peeves when it comes to shopping, but Chris thinks his is gonna get him in hot water. We hear from him and share yours. Jennifer Aniston likes to watch TV naked it turns out, so we asked aboutt he weird stuff you do naked. And if you missed Jade's Christmas Wish, we replay the magic! 

Jade has been fighting cancer for years. Unfortunately, her battle is coming to an end. All she wants is to make this last Christmas with her friends and family extra special. Thanks once again to our friends at the Collin Bruce Mortgage Team, we were able to make some magic happen.

Every sit around with your pals and argue about what Christmas movie is the greatest of all time? Today we found out the true champion with the help of our listeners. We also hear Hudson and his Christmas wish once again, and talk Santa freakouts. 

It's time for another CISN Christmas Wish morning!  this time around we hear about 8 year old Hudson and the terrible time he's been going through. But thankfully we heard their story, and were able to make this Christmas special for him and his family. 

Jack hit up youtube to fix a tail light, now she fancy's herself an expert. What did you learn thanks to youtube? Ladies, sounds like you dog sleeping on the bed is more benifical than you think. And how high has your cell phone gotten?

Accidents with other cars is gonna happen, but with days like today on the road nothing is safe. What weird things have you hit driving? the U of A put out a new study about the funniest words to say. Get ready for Matt to say "boobs" a lot. We also replay the amazing Christmas Wish from yesterday! 

CISN Country's Christmas Wish is back! To kick off this year, you'll hear the story of Trista as told by her friend, Penny. Get the tissues ready, it a tear jerker for sure. We also chat about getting back together with your ex and baby names you'll never hear again!   

It's the day after the evil Calgary Stampeders won the Grey Cup. What did Jack think of the game? She'll give us her recap. Cyber Monday today, so of course we had to talk about your best deals. And we end the age old debate "online vs retail" shopping. 

Just before their big day playing at the Grey Cup, our pals Jenna and Stu from the Reklaws join us in studio to get everyone jazzed up for the big game this weekend. they also played us an updated version Matt made of "Long Live the Night". And we had to finally ask Edmontonians once and for all, who are you cheering for?  

Swept up in the Grey Cup fever, we send Matt downtown to check out the Festival, which produced interesting results. And with so many out of towners coming in for the game, we asked what's that must see thing in Edmonton someone has to check out? 

Most of the morning the microwave turkey was capturing the imagination of Edmonton. We put it in there and the drama started. We also chatted with our Buddy Bryan Hall about his Grey Cup memories, and Chris regales us with a tale of the Spirit of Edmonton.

A bride in the states dropped a bombshell on her fiance, reading off all his cheating texts to the crowd. That lead to your awkward wedding tales and we got some doozies. We also talk about the expensive stuff your pets have destroyed and the 25 pound mom prank that seems to be leading to something VERY interesting

Well the Grey Cup final has been set, with the Calgary Stampeders taking on the Ottawa Red Blacks. The real question is do us Edmontonians bite the bullet and cheer for Alberta and Calgary to win? Chris is thinking about getting another dog, but is it a bad idea to get a rebound dog? And with it also being International Men's Day, Matt tells us why it's so hard to be a man. 

It's a sad day for Chris, he finally threw out his old ratty Christmas tree and replaced it with a new one. That got us going with the things you refuse to throw out. Traffic was TERRIBLE, so we gave all the drivers a place to air their grievances about the horrid driving habits they see all the time. And we end things off with a little clean joke Friday!  

There's a company in Japan that has adopted a new policy giving non smokers 6 extra days off a year to make up for the extra smoke breaks smokers get. This got people on both sides FIRED UP. The "too early for a question, question" talked about babysitting, so after that we set out to find out that babysitters really make. And of course we wrap up last night’s CMA Awards!
