“If I don’t drink today… will my kidneys revolt?” That’s the question that kicks off a hilariously raw and relatable episode of The Ben and Skin Show on 97.1 The Eagle. With Ben Rogers out on vacation, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray take the reins—and the conversation spirals into a laugh-out-loud exploration of dogs, drinking habits, and the delicate art of pretending to be healthy.From Skin’s stomach sounding like a trash compactor to Krystina’s theory that wine doesn’t count as drinking, the crew dives deep into the chaos of post-holiday recovery. Krystina shares adorable stories about her dog’s attention-seeking antics, while Skin wonders if his organs are staging a protest after years of abuse by coffee and whiskey.The gang also reflects on the epic BFD festival, praising the incredible vibes, killer bands, and the behind-the-scenes heroes who made it all happen. Whether you’re a longtime listener or new to the show, this episode is packed with the kind of unfiltered, off-the-cuff brilliance that makes The Ben and Skin Show a DFW radio staple.…

With Ben Rogers out on vacation, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina take the mic and dive into everything from magician movies to the legacy of Pee-wee Herman. Krystina kicks things off with a surprising revelation: she finally watched The Prestige—and it blew her mind. That sparks a hilarious back-and-forth about The Illusionist, why 2006 was the year of dueling magic movies, and how her magician-loving boyfriend roped her into a Memorial Day movie marathon.But the real magic comes when Skin passionately breaks down the new HBO documentary Pee-wee Herman as Himself. What starts as a nostalgic trip turns into a heartfelt exploration of Paul Reubens’ life, his creative genius, and the surprising influence Pee-wee had on SpongeBob SquarePants. From his early days in The Groundlings with Phil Hartman to the character that thankfully didn’t age well (a lounge-singing Native American), the doc reveals a side of Pee-wee most never knew.…

“How do you drive home after the ceiling collapses during a Final Destination screening?” That’s the kind of question only The Ben and Skin Show can ask with a straight face—and then turn into a full-blown comedy segment. With Ben Rogers on vacation, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray hold down the fort and deliver an episode packed with absurd headlines, box office surprises, and a healthy dose of movie mayhem.The crew kicks things off with a wild twist in the Memorial Day box office race: Lilo & Stitch—yes, the live-action remake—crushed Mission: Impossible 8 and set a new holiday weekend record. The crew breaks down why nostalgia-fueled remakes are dominating, while also marveling at how Tom Cruise’s motivational “Let’s go get em!” somehow became the unofficial slogan of BFD weekend.But the real chaos unfolds when they dive into the bizarre real-life horror story: a theater ceiling collapsing during a screening of Final Destination in Argentina. The irony? That’s literally the plot of the movie. The reactions are priceless: “They probably thought Tom Cruise was about to parachute in.” “I’ve seen a goldfish kill a kid in that movie. A ceiling collapse is tame.”…

Pictures of Jerry Jones hanging out at Inwood Tavern took the internet by storm over the weekend, because apparently it’s a news story to some outlets if Jerry has his picture made with women 50 years younger than him. I mean, if Bill Belichick can do what he’s doing, there’s no harm in Jerry having a night out at the bar, amirite?…
