Chad Hartman

Chad opens the show with our boss Brad Lane and an emotional conversation about Brad surviving a 'widowmaker' heart attack just ten days ago, his recovery now, and the great care and some tremendous luck that kept him alive and with us today. Later, we have some lighter fun with Ask Adam Anything, a good conversation with NY Times columnist Tom Friedman and our weekly chat with Jamie Yuccas.

Was Chad's response to his ex-wife appropriate when she asked him about any plans he may have for July 2027? We have some fun with that conversation and talk about St. Patrick's Day and our favorite holidays to get out and celebrate before the weekly visit with Jamie Yuccas to talk about luck in our lives and the popularity of solo dining.

How lucky is Jamie Yuccas? She'll always get the best parking spot no matter how busy the lot!
