Start your morning with standout local stories, Riverbend history, community events, and a brand-new financial conversation focused on real life.
At 9:05 AM, we’re joined by Shalon White, who made national waves after winning the Caesars Star Search contest and being selected as the face of Caesars Entertainment. Shalon will walk us through what it took to win the competition, what that moment meant for her career, and how the opportunity opened doors in entertainment and branding. We’ll also talk about her podcast, her work as an influencer, and how she balances entrepreneurship, creativity, and everyday life — offering a behind-the-scenes look at turning momentum into a platform.
At 10:00 AM, Lacy McDonald returns for 100 Years Ago, breaking down her latest local history feature and connecting today’s Riverbend to the people and events that shaped it a century ago.
At 10:20 AM, Loretta Graham joins us with a preview of Death by Chocolate, sharing what’s planned, where to go, and why this popular downtown event continues to draw crowds year after year.
Then at 10:35 AM, we launch Money Conversations That Matter with John Morrissey of Benjamin F. Edwards, kicking off a practical, no-jargon discussion about financial decision-making and long-term planning.
A show built around achievement, history, community, and real-world insight — all with a strong local connection.
