Hour 2 blends local hero stories, charitable efforts, and eclectic news. The hour begins with recognition of first responders and a discussion on Missouri’s Amendment 3, before pivoting to Bo Matthews in the Thought Tub promoting a children’s toy drive and high-end raffle for police support. The segment moves through business headlines, including Waymo in St. Louis, Netflix acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery, and dating trends at Starbucks. Lighter stories cover airline policies on overweight passengers, the resumption of the Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 search, daring encounters with wildlife, and a cheetah “frozen zoo,” ending with Pantone’s 2026 color of the year, Cloud Dancer.
