Corbin Blue Thursday!

We aren't sure if the fair is ready for the chaos tonight! Corbin Blue of Disney's High School Musical performs tonight at the Western Idaho Fair. Wear your Mix 106 t-shirts!

Today was the day Kate McGwire has been dreaming about!

Rick Springfield was on the show! Mike thought she was going to have a heart attack. And she scared him half to death. He was probably thinking, "Creepy Stalker Chick." She held it together though and didn't scare him off. His new CD is Venus In Overdrive with the new single "What's Victoria's Secret." Kate swears the song sounds like Jessie's Girl. She will make up anything just to talk about Jessie's Girl. We did find out that Rick Springfield was a big fan of the boy bands, especially N'Sync. Who knew??

Find out tomorrow if The Bunny House is worth seeing. Mike thinks it looks stupid. Willie Waffle will be giving his Mix 106 Movie Review.

Have a great day and don't eat too much at the fair!

Olympic Fever!

Do you have it yet? Mike and Kate definitely have it. Unfortunately Mike can only remember one name, Michael Phelps. There are other competitors Mike!

OUCH! Did you see the weight lifter who dislocated his elbow yesterday. That's gotta hurt! Check out the pictures HERE.

Finally Friday!

The weekend couldn't come any sooner! After our big 7 Year Itch Celebration this week, we are ready for some relaxation.

The Opening Ceremonies for the 2008 Summer Olympics have begun in China! Kate has the Olympic Fever, Mike is not interested at all.

Today is 08-08-08! Over 9,000 people are getting married today in China. In the Chinese Culture the #8 is considered lucky.

Congratulations to Becky and Dwyane Spoooner! They are the Mike and Kate Everyday Hero of the week. Deanna Smith nominated them. Apparently Dwayne's coworker had a stroke at 31 years old and was unable to renovate the "fixer upper" house he just bought. The man is now in a wheelchair. So Dwayne and Becky stepped up the help. They have been working on the man's house night and day and they also held a benefit yard sale to raise money for the family. The Spooner family definitely makes the Treasure Valley a better place to live. Thank You! For being the Mike and Kate Everyday Hero they get a $75 Applebees Gift Certificate.

Apparently Oregon State Police say people are filling up plastic bottles with urine and chucking them out on I-84 between Ontario and Huntington. Around 300 bottles have dumped! YUCK! They think it could be long haul truck drivers because of the high fuel costs and how much gas is used to stop and start again. Careful if you are headed west this weekend.

See you tonight at Wine After Work at Tannins Wine Bar in the Sandstone Plaza next to Cowgirls! The party gets started at 6PM.

Have a great weekend!
Mike and Kate

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

Today is our 7th Year Anniversary! On August 6, 2001 we did our very first show together!

What a fun show this morning! We had fun taking a trip down memory lane! Remember when Kate got Dan Kouba fired? Mike's kids singing on the air? Kate's mom was hysterical! And all the guests that Tommy had stop by were so fun! Thanks to Ysabel Bilbao and Maggie O'Mara from Channel 7, Governor Otter, Adam Sandler, Christopher Walken, Tom Arnold and Al Pachino!

And a huge thanks to Phoenix Catering, exclusive caterers to Bogus Creek Ranch! They served up breakfast to our listeners this morning and it was delicious!

The celebration continues tonight at the Bulls Head Pub in Meridian! The party starts at 6. We have a slideshow of all the adventures we have had over the last 7 years. We have a giant cake from Pastry Perfection, and tons of prizes from Essence of Romance, Roaring Springs, Boondocks, Boise Hawks Tx, Panache Spa and so much more!
See you tonight!

Have a great day!

Happy Monday to you! We hope you had a great weekend!

Kate and the girls went to Donnelly for Girls Weekend 2008!

Apparently they had craft hour! This is not what we were hoping to have happened at Girls Weekend. But she said they took time about from the pillow fights and naked massages to make belts. They are actually really cool! Kate is not into crafts, but she had so much fun, this might actually be a Kate University class in the future. And then of course as you can see from the rest of the pictures, they just got wild and crazy! Check them out on our myspace page. www.myspace.com/mikeandkate1

Mike and Kate had a great time on Friday in Kuna! It started at Wine After Work at Tannins and then they moved to Cowgirls next door. Mike was playing in a poker tournament there and Kate and Tracy just danced the night away. And Kuna Fun Days was going on. What an amazing firework show! And no night in Kuna is complete without hitting the taco Wagon! Kate made fun of Mike all morning long for the shirt he wore. Pop-eye playing poker with bling all over the shirt. Mike loved it, Kate said it was ridiculous! Check out the pictures on our photopage. You make the call, http://www.mix106radio.com/index.php?pagetoget=pics

What is worse? Getting caught parking with your girlfriend on some back road by your aunt or having your aunt tell your dad who is a DJ? Mike's son was caught with his girlfriend last weekend. The two say they were just looking at the stars, too bad it was 6 at night!

Kate University Riverboarding is August 16th! Learn to ride a skimboard with Banshee Riverboards! Sign ups are this Friday at 9AM at http://www.mix106radio.com/index.php?pagetoget=kateuni
