# 281 - Twas The Night Before Christmas '18
59:50 minutes (54.79 MB)
Tonight on the Show, Santa Claus makes his annual flight around the World. And it's Christmas Eve. The second time that The DJBC Happy Hour has aired on Christmas Eve (2012 being the other year), and the last time until 2029 (unless the show moves to another night and time).
The Weekend Warrior returns to preview The Big Explore, which is in commemoration of the 75th Anniversary of the Columbus Foundation, December 29. SIX Local Museums will have FREE Admission, and COTA will have FREE bus service ALL Day on that Saturday (I deliberately left out the part about the 75 cent cones of Jeni's Ice Cream on purpose).
And Mrs. Claus predicts the Peach (Saturday at NOON on ESPN) and Rose (New Year's Day at 5PM on ESPN) Bowls, with a Special Guest, and a couple of Elves.
Next week ONLY, the show will air LIVE at 8PM EST. I'll try to cut in at 7:59, but I'm going to perfect it. I swear.
# 280 - Christmas on Broadway
59:29 minutes (54.46 MB)
Tonight on the show, the holidays are here, and we're taking it to the stage with songs from The Sound of Music, Rent, (The Who's) Tommy, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, Annie, Promises, Promises, and the stage adaptations of Holiday Inn and Dr. Seuss's How The Grinch Stole Christmas.
# 279 - December IS Magic Again
59:14 minutes (54.24 MB)
Tonight on the show, an hour full of Christmas songs, with Herb Alpert being the featured artist, in commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of "The Christmas Album" (1968), which he followed that up last year with "The Christmas Wish", his first holiday album in 49 years.

# 277 - The Post-Game Show (or The DJBC Unhappy Hour)
59:48 minutes (54.76 MB)
Tonight on the Show:
- The Game: The Revenge Tour comes to an abrupt halt, as the Buckeyes slaughter That Team Up North, 62-39. The most combined points in the rivalry history, and the most points scored by Ohio State in the history of the rivalry (surpassing the old record of 50, twice set by Woody Hayes: 1961 and 1968). What's next for Ohio State and Michigan. Was this Urban Meyer (and Dwayne Haskins)'s last game at the Shoe?
- The Weekend Warrior: The Final Weekend Warrior before Christmas Eve runs through Holiday Lighting events throughout the Columbus area, plus a couple of non-holiday events, such as Creative Mornings, The Sergeant Peppercorn Marathon, and Columbus Children's Theatre's Nat King Cole Fundraiser Concert.
- Giving Tuesday: #GivingTuesday is November 27. Donate online to http://www.wcrsfm.org, to help keep WCRS FM alive for future generations to come (I have Show # 300 to look forward to next year, so make that big donation!)

# 276 - Go Blue Wave '18
59:40 minutes (54.63 MB)
Tonight on the show, the 115th Annual "The Game" takes place on Saturday November 24 at Ohio Stadium as the # 10 Ohio State B*ckeyes host the # 4 Michigan Wolverines, the second time in the last three years both schools are in the Top Ten in the annual rivalry. Also for the second time in three years, ESPN's College Game Day will broadcast LIVE from The Ohio State University on November 24 before the Noon game, which will air for the second straight year on FOX.
DJBC's Pick: Michigan 28, "You Know Who" 21
- Michigan is pissed off for many reasons. 1) They played poorly against Indiana...again. 2) The last time they were in Columbus, the referees gave OSU the crucial first down in overtime, when it was abundantly clear that J.T. Barrett was short on 4th and Inches. 3) The B*ckeyes have won 15 of the last 17 meetings, and Michigan hasn't won in Columbus since 2000.
- This is only the third time in the last 27 years that Michigan is favored in Columbus. They are 0-1-1, with the loss coming the last time they were favored, 2004 (a 37-21 win, when Tressel deliberately locked Michigan in their locker rooms), and the tie coming in 1992, in what then-OSU President Dr. E. Gordon Gee called, "One of the greatest B*ckeye victories ever". 1988 (or 1990) was the last time Michigan won in Columbus as the clear favorite.
- Ohio State's defense is bad...really bad. They let a 2-6 Nebraska team hang around for the whole game. They let Indiana and Minnesota hang around too long. They allowed TWO 75+ yard touchdowns against both Oregon State and Maryland (who were a combined 7-15, as of the airing of this show). They allowed a 93-yard score against TCU (whose own season fell apart during the third quarter of said game). They can't stop the run, and the loss of Nick Bosa to both a season-ending injury and next Spring's NFL Draft has hurt.
- Haskins is not a mobile quarterback like Shea Patterson (or Haskins' ancestors - Barrett, Miller, or even Cardale Jones).
# 275 - Midterm Madness '18
59:09 minutes (54.15 MB)
Tonight on the show, we put the Midterm Elections to bed. Plus, the Weekend Warrior previews the kickoff to Holiday festivities near you.
