  • Hot John Hates Holidays
    Dec 10 2025

    Experience the infamous broadcast that allegedly got Dogboy Adventures cancelled, presented exactly as it aired following WART-TV's Festive Greetings Holiday Parade. In the shadow of the rusted Curleyworld theme park, former carney Jon "Hot John" Pyre and his son Scotty scrape by in a freezing Winnebago, surviving on cold beans and hard truths. Desperate to give his son a better future, John concocts a yuletide lie to drive Scotty away, all while secretly selling his muscle to the Guild of Thieves. A gritty, tear-stained holiday noir about sacrifice, "bad" dads, and the lies we tell to protect the ones we love. Once thought lost, the episode was recovered in a YouTube video featuring the full parade, an interview with Full House's Jodie Sweetin, and the only known recording of "Hot John Hates Holidays."

    In the aftershow, Bill Meeks reunites with Nathan Beatty, the original "voice of Colta City" who narrated the Dogboy audiobook series a decade ago. Nathan shares what it was like stepping back into the cowl after all these years and debates which character is more fun to play: the gruff Hot John or the verbose Osbert. Plus, Nathan shares his own most memorable Christmas in this special look behind the mask of Everly Heights’ favorite pulp hero. Includes several promotional video clips for the original book series.

  • Love @ Night with Bernie Love (featuring Dave Theune)
    Nov 5 2025

    Settle in, cool cats and kittens, for Love @ Night on WART-FM broadcasting LIVE from Everly Heights. Your host, Bernie Love, is live and on the line to help you find your ideal match, keep that spark alive, and make amends when you inevitably mess it up. The evening kicks off with a special remote broadcast featuring three colorful Milwaukee locals (all voiced by special guest Dave Theune from Comedy Bang Bang, The Paper, and St. Denis Medical) before returning to the WART-FM studio, where Bernie fields calls from romantics and weirdos alike — including a man whose “payday dinner” goes off the rails and a would-be lover torn between Pokémon and Digimon. But when Bernie’s wife calls in to air their dirty laundry on-air, the smooth-talking DJ must confront his own advice and learn to live not in the past... but in the now — or maybe even the future.

    In the aftershow, Bill Meeks shares how this story began as a challenge for America’s Next Top Podcaster and how Bernie’s voice was inspired by his own time behind the mic.
