KQ Morning Show Setlist: July 1, 2024

What’s the worst place to get stung by a bee and other horrible bee sting ordeals… Mike took one right in the butt cheek because he thought it’d be funny to moon some new friends on his motorcycle heading to Sturgis, Brent from Faribault got one in the eyeball and Rick was stung in the back of the throat and had to go to two different hospitals to get that sucker out 

“Beat the Toaster” went to a tie-breaker today – Kerry pulled out the win! 

And we paid tribute to Martin Mull… Known for his roles in Clue, Arrested Development, FM, and as a 92 KQRS DJ in Jingle All The Way 


KQ Morning Show Setlist: June 28, 2024 

Comedian KP Anderson joined us to talk growing up in Cambridge… Being at Zach Galafinakis’ house to watch Mike Tyson bite off Evander Holyfield’s ear… And how comedians (and touring drummers) could easily get away with murder 

Michelle nailed her sales pitch and scored tickets to KQ’s Rock The Boat ‘80s Cruise… and recovered her dad’s hearing aid!  

And we started with Hawk Tuah and went deep on our favorite viral moments…

Steve had a missed connection with Julia Roberts and we’re pretty sure she sits around listening to a Black Crowes demo tape thinking about how he is the one that got away…  

Joe cruisin’ around Lake Mille Lacs knew his fake ‘80s tv shows from his real ones and scored Rock the Boat ‘80s Cruise tickets… But Michelle wanted them so badly we’re going to let her play again tomorrow…

What’s the biggest animal you could kill with your bare hands? Steve thinks he can take down a possum, Zepp doesn’t think he’s good for much more than a hedgehog and Tony is confident he’ll overpower an ant. Mark from St. Paul says he’s a retired MMA fighter and he’s confident he can take down a horse. 

We learned that fecal matter transfers can be done right in your own kitchen…  

And Cathy knew that Skinny Puppy was in fact a band from the 80s and scored KQ Rock The Boat ‘80s Tickets!

What’s an underrated skill that everyone should know?

  • Wally from Brooklyn Center says he can fix damn near anything on his vehicle and is teaching his three boys to do the same
  • Tim from Wisconsin said he gave his wife the heimlich maneuver twice in one night (and regretted it ever since) 😂

We played Gimme 2 Seconds and Ryder got to use the dump button on the show for the first time ever – plus Ryan in Blaine scored KQ Karaoke Cruise tickets!

And Steve takes us on a deep dive into the history of McDonald’s fries

What’s the craziest thing that has happened while you were on a plane?

  • Angelo from Douglas County saw the jet his family was on get struck by lighting as it was landing
  • Rhonda from Big Lake tossed her cookies all over the first-class bathroom
  • Skip from Inver Grove Heights was on a plane that started to tip backwards at the gate so they all had all the passengers pile up at the front of the plane!
  • Read more and tell us your crazy flight stories on our Facebook page

We played “People Are Strange” and learned that Tony rotates his dishes so they don’t feel left out – plus Josh from North Minneapolis scored Celeste Barber tickets!

And… Steve, Zepp & Tony get really nostalgic about the cologne they wore in junior high (stuff that’s probably banned by the FDA at this point)
