Cellmates
Cellmates is a trivia game played by two listeners who’ve done time or gotten in trouble with the law. They each tell their story of how things went sideways, then each are asked three trivia questions. Between the two, they must get five right to win. Your win comes in hearing how they got in trouble! Thanks to the Daly/Miggs Show, Rock 99.9 (KISW), Seattle for this idea.
Jury Duty
It’s believed the Trump trial is rounding the corner to a verdict. Lots of shows have been avoiding the topic (smart) because it’s so polarizing. But there’s no reason you can’t mention the trial, then pivot to wondering what it’s like to be on a jury and solicit for those stories.

After the short segment each day, take a few calls to see if listeners can guess the famous person whose mom you’re talking to.
