The conclusion of the Ultimate Ticket to Rock is upon us, with your pals at WZLX ready to party at the Tall Ship in Boston tomorrow, August 2nd! Of course, a soundtrack is needed, and what better way to day-drink on a boat than with a plentiful selection of yacht rock? Today's "Check In with Chuck" asks, do we go full blown Christopher Cross, or do we stick to the format bearing our station's tagline?

Also, Chuck recaps his vacation to Bermuda. Ooh, Mr. Fancy-Pants Nowlin with his quasi-tan and close proximity to the Bacardi world headquarters. Meanwhile, we commonfolk had to sit at home in a heat wave and listen to Tyler on the radio all week, come on!

For whatever reason, Gen Z - aka "the kids these days" - is drinking out less. Moreover, when they ARE at their local watering hole, they aren't opening tabs at the bar! News like this riles Danielle, who endures flashbacks to a past life serving drinks at Coyote Ugly and McGreevy's (RIP.)

If you are planning to rent a car through Hertz, heads up - the company is rolling out technology that uses AI to scan for damage upon the vehicle's return. Of couse, AI isn't the perfect replacement for a human set of eyes, so make sure you check your receipt for any odd charges! Also, we feature YOUR talkbacks and calls about the Prince of Darkness himself, the late Ozzy Osbourne.

Many moons ago, as he was just starting his journey on Boston's Classic Rock, a young Chuck Nowlin lived in a dank ground-level apartment on the mean streets of Brighton. One day, Chuck encountered an invader in his abode, just as he was making his escape. Naturally, Chuck took off after the thug.

Giving chase, Chuck did what any crime fighting superhero would do - he... stopped. He let the guy get away. With all that said, may we present a special installment of "Am I the A-Hole," where we question if our own Chuck is, in fact, the a-hole in this scenario.

Be it hot or iced, most of us of enjoy a nice cuppa joe in the morning. For some, one serving has enough caffiene to get the engines going, the pipes flowin', and the day rolling. However, for others, what is one cup wasn't enough? Enter the bucket of iced coffee from Sandwich Works in Newton! It's guaranteed you get you through the day, and keep you awake for the next three. 

Also, Tyler and Danielle continue to make fun of Chuck the Crimefighter for not catching the guy who broke into his old apartment.

Making the rounds (ha) on the internet is a curious innovation from Japan; a beer bottle designed to be placed in the sand. However, the shape of the bottle resembles that of a certain type of "plug," if you will. Doctors on social media are already weighing in, offering PSAs in hopes of avoiding awkward situations in the emergency room. 

Also, in the coincidentally-tltled segment "Am I the A-Hole," the morning crew wonders if their own Danielle is today's subject. While one might find her home to be decked out on Halloween with skeletons and the like, Danielle won't be answering the door nor giving out candy to trick-or-treaters. Who's the REAL monster here??

A Southie resident is taking a local bar to court, after a taxidermized deer head mounted on their wall fell and injured her. Of course, Tyler thinks this scenario is hilarious. Can you believe HE'S not the one who refuses to give out candy to children on Halloween?? 

Also in today's "Check In with Chuck," the crew wants to know - in your fantasy rockstar life, what would be on YOUR concert rider? What sustinence do you crave and demand prior to going out on stage and rocking out to thousands of your fans?

In today's "Am I the A-Hole," Chuck, Danielle, and Tyler want to know if it's okay to hang out in the Dunkin' parking lot, right in front of the building... right in front of the door... not going anywhere. Come on, guy.

Also, how many times can a young woman get her head stuck in a washing machine? The crew discuss the odd, sometimes hilarious scenarios that set up, erm, "adult entertainment."

The bases are loaded, and you're up to bat - what song do you want blaring over the Fenway PA as you approach the plate? Something LOUD? Something that will wreck the speakers, and the audience's collective hearing? Yacht rock?? The morning crew want to know in today's "Check In with Chuck!"
