#293 Pt. 1 - Mikey & Bob (96.1KISS Morning Freakshow)

I'll Call You Right Back Podcast

This week, it is my honor to welcome two Pittsburgh Icons into ICYRB Studios. Mikey & Bob have been radio show hosts in Pittsburgh for a long time. They have been running the 96.1KISS Morning Freakshow for over TWO DECADES. Every morning, we wake up and listen to their commentary on our city. Whether it be updates on our Holy Trinity of sports teams, reading tweets from the @PGHscanner account, or sending the some jagoff to 'The Crossroads,' you can always count on a laugh from the two oddly shaped best friends.

This week, they guys stop by the studio to touch on one of their most important events of the year in Stuff-A-Bus. Stuff-A-Bus is an event they have been hosting since their arrival to the Steel City. (Yes, surprisingly, they weren't born here!) Over the last 21 years, they have filled over 790 school buses with new and unwrapped toys to benefit the Marines Toys for Tots Program. From December 2nd to December 6th, yinz can head over to Robinson Town Square and donate to a great cause. Yinz can find more details on all their socials and the 96.1KISS website.

In addition to highlighting Toys for Tots, you can bet we dive into a whole bunch of other good stories about their introduction to radio, how they first moved to Pittsburgh, what goes into running a successful morning radio show, and all the characters they've introduced us to over the years. Enjoy the episode! Thanks for listening!
