The Q Morning Show

Memorial Day weekend is officially in the rearview mirror, and it’s back to reality. We recap the not-so-great holiday weather while looking ahead to a beautiful week. The season-ending heartbreak for the Cleveland Cavaliers still stings, but Cleveland had no shortage of star power over the weekend with appearances from Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, Kylie Jenner, and Timothée Chalamet. We also break down an American Music Awards show that didn’t exactly bring the excitement. Plus, a warning about new A.I.-powered scams, The Group Chat tackles whether a casual relationship is turning serious, Curtis from the Cleveland Guardians stops by with tickets for Sunday’s game, and we debate whether parents should follow their kids on social media.

We are SO ready for the 3-day Memorial Day weekend… even if the weather might not cooperate at first. Good Vibes! The American Music Awards are Monday night. Apparently Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are keeping wedding details from at least one family member. Plus, there’s a rumor swirling about when Zoë Kravitz might be getting married. Red Flag Friday: Danielle says she REALLY likes a guy, but she’s questioning whether they’re actually compatible. Alyssa’s College of Knowledge! And since nobody called in for Free Plug Friday, Bill & Alyssa just started plugging upcoming events themselves. Plus, Bill refuses to subscribe to Netflix just to watch the Mackenzie Shirilla documentary… but should he cave in and watch it?

Memorial Day weekend somehow snuck up on everyone, a listener spotted Bill in public but chickened out, and a psychologist explains why we all still type ‘LOL.’ Plus: a married couple’s work-from-home tension boils over in Hash It Out, Gen Z revives another old trend, and listeners share the habits they banned after moving in together.

After a brutal late-night Cavs collapse in Game 1, Bill is running on fumes and pure frustration. Meanwhile, Alyssa is back from Utah and totally unaffected…mostly because she doesn’t watch the Cavs. We learned that A.I. and graduation ceremonies are a disastrous combo, shared some Good Vibes, and Alyssa says TSA lines are moving surprisingly well right now — with even more changes possibly coming soon. In Am I The Bleephole?, Betsy’s son doesn’t want his dad (Betsy’s ex) at his graduation party, which sparked a big debate. Plus, Alyssa’s College of Knowledge, an Arizona listener calls in about technical issues we’re trying to fix, and we asked: do you remember your senior quote from high school?

Alyssa is out for one more day, so Mackenzie is back in the co-host chair — and she is MORE than ready for summer break. We kicked things off with Good Vibes and started wondering which celebrities could be showing up in town this weekend for Cavs/Knicks Game 3. In The Group Chat, Mackenzie admits she’s exclusively dating one guy… but doesn't like when he calls her his “girlfriend.” Is that weird? We also played another round of Mackenzie’s Match Game, talked about the A.I. disaster that completely ruined a college graduation ceremony in Arizona, and took a trip down memory lane with everyone’s senior superlatives.

Alyssa is out in Utah, so Mackenzie stepped in to co-host the show today! After another stressful late-night Game 7, the Cleveland Cavaliers pulled off another huge win and Bill admitted he was worried the entire city would wake up depressed if things went the other way. We got to know Mackenzie better with a round of “2 Truths and A Lie,” talked about why the city was overcrowded yesterday, and debated an important driving question: do you honk if the car in front of you doesn’t move when the light turns green? We also played “Mackenzie’s Match Game,” checked in on Bill’s son during “Bike To School” week, and shared the words we purposely mispronounce because it’s just more fun that way.

A quick message from Bill if you'd like to know why there's no full show today!

The Cavs kept everyone up late again, but it was worth it after another overtime WIN! The show also welcomed special guest Mackenzie, who’ll be filling in for Alyssa next week. We somehow ended up back in another beard debate, shared some Good Vibes, and talked about whether someone deserves a second date if there’s no chemistry the first time around. In Hash It Out, Kristen accused her husband of hiding the fact that he’s been working out with their divorced neighbor. Alyssa’s College of Knowledge returned, along with another round of “I Know It’s Happening, but I Don’t Want To Know.” Plus, we asked the question: what would YOU do if you found $30,000 in cash?

We kicked off the morning with some GOOD VIBES! Alyssa had an adventure getting to Career Day yesterday…including intentionally breaking the law on the way there. In “Am I The Bleephole?”, Zach’s girlfriend wants a “re-do” proposal, so we debated whether he actually messed up the first time. Alyssa’s College of Knowledge returned, and we also took time to recognize the passing of Cleveland broadcasting and sports legend Bob Tayek. Plus, would you be honest if you hated your significant other’s beard?

The Cavs are still alive—and headed back to Detroit after a huge win! Bill’s oldest son turns 15 today, though it’s not exactly the birthday he hoped for since he’s home sick. We also share the biggest celebrity we’ve ever spoken to on the phone, react to the game show Savannah Guthrie is about to host, and share today’s Good Vibes. In The Group Chat, Tricia’s dealing with a tense roommate situation that may come to a head this summer. Plus, Alyssa’s College of Knowledge, your go-to TouchTunes songs, and Bill reveals the birthday gift he gave his son....it's a good gift, right?

Bill isn't sure if he adequately prepared his boys for Mother's Day. "Book It" is returning to Pizza Hut and we reminisce about the glory days of free personal pan pizzas. Good Vibes! Are jigsaw puzzles relaxing… or incredibly boring? Bill's wife is celebrating her birthday today, but Bill also discovered something about his wife that scares the absolute bejeezus out of him. Alyssa's College of Knowledge! Someone just won the biggest prize ever on The Price Is Right. Plus, have you ever talked to a celebrity on the phone?

The Cavs have us stressed, but at least it’s Friday! Bill’s wife and youngest son are headed to Sandusky, We try to figure out what exactly happened with that Canvas hack. Good Vibes! In Red Flag Friday, Gabby thinks the guy she’s dating is using gas prices as an excuse not to come see her. Alyssa’s College of Knowledge! Free Plug Friday! Plus, what do you wish you DIDN'T know about your Mom?!?
