WBLM Morning Show

It was epic radio this morning on the Blimp as we said goodbye to Brian James. After 33 years, the Guru is hanging up his WBLM headphones. Today he joined the Captain and Celeste for an amazing final show. There were lots of tears, and stories with Brian hanging out with Jimmy Page, the Black Crowes, AC/DC, etc. Blimpsters called in with thanks and their great Guru stories.

21 years ago this week, Def Leppard returned to Portland for a sold-out show at the Civic Center to bring us into the new millennium. Watch live encore footage of Stagefright, a special surprise that night for fans from right here in Portland.

Celebrate his 72nd birthday by listening to the historic moment right here. Steve Perry tells us the beautiful, heartbreaking story of how he returned to making music after his nearly 25 year absence.

As we keep adding on more and more layers, let's crank up the most requested cold weather song from the WBLM Morning Show, Tis The Season For Frickin' Freezin'.

We always get a bunch of requests for that 'fish song' that's been played on every soaked morning for the last 30 years or so.

I mean, come on. Look how cool our own Captain Ivy from the WBLM Morning Show is strutting toward One City Center from Monument Square in Portland with his mask on.

In the summer of 2016, the Westbrook Police Department posted the a report of a snake “as long as truck” with a “head the size of a soccer ball” was seen near Riverbank Park.

These days we just need a good laugh. Nothing heavy or with deep social meaning. Sometimes you just need to hear a filthy, filthy, dirty joke. And that's exactly what we did this morning. Now, the punchline is wayyyyy to dirty to say on the air so we had listeners call in to the studio to hear it. Then we edited out the punchline and played just the hilarious reactions from our listeners. We got HUNDREDS of calls.

This song brilliantly and hilariously observes and expresses the suffering we all endure living in the Pine Tree State year after year. But remember what my Nana always said. If you can't suffah the wintah, you don't deserve the summah.

Tune into tomorrow around 7:45am for some laughs with Teagan Wright and the Captain and Celeste right here aboard the Rock and Roll Blimp!

It seems like every week there are several hilarious, yet disturbing news stories coming out of Florida.

Hopefully we'll turn the corner down the road to spring next week as temps get closer to 40. In the meantime, we might as well have a laugh with our old pal Eben and the WBLM Morning Show cold weather classic, Tis the Season For Frickin' Freezin'.

19 years ago today, Def Leppard returned to Portland for a sold-out show at the Civic Center to bring us into the new millennium. The WBLM Morning Show officiated a wedding ceremony of two loyal Blimpsters on stage. How 'bout that for an epic celebration of love around Valentines Day? Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Buckhoff!

The first official day of winter is here and we're gettin' soaked by heavy rain that'll wash our white Christmas away. That just ain't right. Oh well, at least it's a great excuse to get this WBLM Morning Show twisted classic back out there.

Join Jeff Dunham and his cast of salty characters at the Cross Insurance Arena in Portland on March 15, 2019, courtesy of the WBLM Morning Show.

As we keep adding the extra layers this week, let's crank up the most requested song about the cold from the WBLM Morning Show, "Tis The Season for Frickin Freezin"!
