WXVU PodcastsThe Morning Roar with special guests Simran Mishra, Marisa Somich, Jacob Artz, and Zac Tipton - March 24, 2023The crew delivered another action packed episode of the Morning Roar. We had a juicy Twitter poll question, asking you which host's saga you found most compelling? Allison went into details of her efforts as WXVU Station Manager to get the station played in the Connelly Center!
The crew also discussed silly things they believed when they were younger, and kicked around which restaurant they'd most likely to be seen at after escaping from jail. IHOP, indeed, is a candidate.
The mind bender featured some March Madness trivia! Yes, Dom may have gotten some cupcakes...2023-03-251h 00
