Pilsen is rated #10 by TimeOut Magazine in the 50 coolest neighbourhoods in the world:
We all know there’s only one true alien expert on earth, Tom Delonge.
Well, our researchers here on the KQX Morning Crew have actually uncovered some secret footage of Tom Delonge TEACHING ALIENS HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH.
Thanks to Tom, we can now communicate with any space invaders that might want to destroy us all.
Lucia from Shorewood has an issue.
Her boyfriend has been coming home with weird marks and bruises. He claimed they were coming from his jiu-jitsu class.
She ran into someone from his jiu-jitsu class and asked about her boyfriend’s progress in the dojo. As it turned out, her boyfriend hadn’t been coming to class for quite some time.
Turns out he’s been seeing a dominatrix.
How should Lucia confront him? Let us know on Twitter or Facebook!
Concert pianist Oscar Levant once said, “There’s a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.”
These kids have followed in his footsteps.
Nothing so simple has ever given kids so much joy. It’s a beautiful thing to see.
We just ask that you don’t try to copy these actions.
Or do and send us a video of it to our Twitter or Facebook.
Tom Delonge was already an American hero. Without his sick lyrics and sweet hooks, we wouldn’t have been able to get past our teen years.
Now, the Angels and Airwaves frontman has found aliens. Or at least what the government confirms to be “unidentified” objects.
Up until now, any saucer-like objects that have flown into our stratosphere have been labeled weather balloons or drones.
That is until now, thanks to our fearless Angels and Airwaves frontman.
Get tickets to see Angels and Airwaves and Cage the Elephant at the Aragon Ballroom on 12/11/19 here.
Chicken sandwiched between two piping hot donuts. Cheez-It infused pizza squares. This is the world we’re living in now.
We applaud the innovation behind these well-crafted food combinations. We just can’t stomach the idea of tasting these creations…unless we get some of whatever they were smoking when they came up with these ideas.
On the scale of epicness, this snake prank from a Miami beach cop has to rank among the greats.
Let’s play by play this for a second, it’s not the cleverness behind this prank that makes it so great. There have been far more clever, interesting, and evil pranks.
This prank is made by the reaction of the officer who was on the receiving end of the prank. The shrill, the shriek, the shout. It was a perfect reaction to a beautifully simplistic prank.

Before we go any further, let\’s get it out of the way that the truck driver is fine and no one was injured in the accident.
The truck driver was going west on I-94 when the driver in front of him “slammed on his brakes.” He tried to break and swerved to the left, where part part of the truck went over the median.
About 150 gallons of diesel was lost, but we still don\’t know what happened to the 44,000 pounds of cocoa hazelnut spread. We hope it went to a good home and was enjoyed on crepes, bananas, or toast.
If you’re like us over here at the KQX Morning Crew then you definitely make irresponsible financial decisions by betting on Dancing with the Stars.
Well, we have really bad news. Her season has ended before it even started.
If you took the money line for Christie Brinkley to win it all outright, call your bookie and beg for your money back.
EXCLUSIVE ballroom bombshell! @SeaBrinkley is out of @DancingABC before the season begins. She tells @Ginger_Zee about her injury and the moment she called her daughter Sailor to ask her to step in for mom coming up on @GMA! #DWTS https://t.co/vCu1GI9DWR pic.twitter.com/SBDoWy84Aq

Brinkley has since been replaced by her daughter, Sailor.
Many are speculating Brinkley purposely took the fall as part as a covert inside job.
Christie has survived a helicopter crash, and you’re telling me she destroyed her wrist from that tiny little fall. Something isn’t right here, and we are calling for an investigation.
For all the nerds out there, grab your wallets.
Because the ultimate Star Wars fanboy toy has been discovered in Texas.
Introducing the “one of a kind” 1979 Dodge Star Wars van.
This baby *smacks hood of car* was made two years after the release of the first Star Wars film, and she still purs like it’s her first day out on the road.
There are no major issues with the van, except the current owner doesn’t know how to open the doors, so you would be stuck climbing through the windows or the trunk.
This beauty could be yours for only $9,800 on craigslist! But can you really put a price on the joy that’ll come along with this classic whip?
Meet and greet photos from BANKS in The Lounge!!
The Raconteurs stopped by The Lounge for a fantastic session with some station listeners!

I may have gotten a l(ot)ittle excited when I saw video of The Interrupters covering Billie Eilish on tour… HERE.
I am so happy to report that they didn’t stop for a second of rest after touring with 311, the Dirty Heads, Dreamers and Bikini Trill all summer, did not pass go or collect $200, and went directly to the studio to lay it down.
Chhhhheck it:
Yes officer, I would like to report another robbery.
