We enter the 10 AM overlap with Linda Kearns joining Nick, Anna, Greg, Phil and Tony Bruno as the bathroom-hygiene fight immediately starts again. Phil delivers Today in Music History with John Deacon, Ian Gillan, Joey Tempest, Ginger Baker, Frank Beard, Duane Allman and several major rock milestones. Rock and Roll Jeopardy follows, with Tony answering Blondie, Phil getting Buddy Holly, Greg landing the Grateful Dead and Anna coming through with the Beach Boys.
Dawn’s Big Three is handled by Anna Hummel while she fills in for Dawn. We cover Google’s proposed $10 million purchase of internal business data from bankrupt Spirit Airlines and debate how valuable personal and corporate data have become. Russia issues an arrest order for Conor Kennedy over his service with Ukrainian forces, Hayden Panettiere’s mother speaks following the actress’s death at 36, and NYC DSA co-chair Gustavo Gordillo’s expensive Brooklyn home becomes fuel for a socialism-versus-personal-wealth argument. Costco’s move into Medicare products closes the news run.
The Costco story becomes a warehouse-club showdown involving Sam’s Club, BJ’s and Buc-ee’s before Wawa enters the picture. Nick’s handwashing confession resurfaces yet again, and Anna passionately defends dipping pizza in ranch while promoting Jet’s Pizza and its Turbo Crust. Linda previews what she has coming later, Tony plugs his afternoon appearance, and we close Kayal and Company at 10:29:41 AM ET as Nick and Anna make way for Linda.
