This story begins with a man named Frank. No last name, no nickname, just Frank. For five years now, he’s been battling with the city to fix a pothole in an alley near his home. Bureaucrats have made false-promises and failed to deliver the most basic of community services dating back to 2017, but now, in the year of our Lord 2022, Frank has finally gotten some justice.

City workers arrived to the area last week and filled the pothole, bringing peace to the community once and for all.

A group of 26 fans are taking their dissatisfaction with Ticketmaster to court. In a lawsuit submitted to a California court, the fans accuse Ticketmaster’s parent company, LiveNation, of “anticompetitive conduct” that let scalpers snap up a surplus of tickets, resulting in higher ticket prices for the fans who could actually get their hands on them. The lawsuit takes umbrage with the presale system that Ticketmaster uses, as well, noting that the company “intentionally and purposely mislead Taylor Swift presale ticketholders by providing codes to 1.4 million ‘verified fans’” when it actually didn’t have enough seats to go around. According to Ticketmaster, 3.5 million people pre-registered as Verified Fans to gain access to the sale, but it had to put 2 million of these fans on a waitlist for a chance to pick up any remaining tickets.

#PilkandCookies is what the marketing geniuses at Pepsi came up with. According to Lindsay Lohan and Pepsi’s chief marketing officer, “Combining Pepsi and milk has long been a secret hack among Pepsi fans.”

Anyone who has mixed milk and Pepsi together before this trend needs to be put on a list.

Please tag not only Pepsi in your #PilkandCookies videos, but Q101 as well. We need to keep track of who is deranged and who isn’t.

Rapper-turned-antisemite Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, tagged alongside Alex Jones and his vile, conspiracy-filled platform InfoWars on Thursday to praise Nazi’s for…inventing the modern highway system. Never one to conform, Ye’s passion for stirring up controversy has become a tired, bored mode of operation as he continues to fail to write interesting music or contribute anything worth of value to society. We have now hit a point where Alex Jones – the man who lied about the Sandy Hook shooting, the man who said there are chemicals in the water turning frogs gay, the man who peddled PizzaGate conspiracies, and the man who argued that the government is controlling the weather – is trying to act as the voice of reason.

Can you still listen to Ye, or have his recent actions become too off-putting for you? The conversation lives on Facebook!

A 72-year-old woman has been arrested after she allegedly switched off a hospital roommate’s ventilator twice because she was annoyed by the sound it made, according to authorities in Germany. Prosecutors say that this 79-year-old woman ignored pleas from the hospital to leave her roommate’s ventilator running. The woman has been charged with manslaughter.

Now…hang with us here. We’re not saying it’s right to unplug someone from the thing keeping them alive, but imagine dealing with this sound all day? That’s all we’re saying – it must’ve been annoying. And if you don’t think so, keep this sound playing on your desk all day as you go about your workday. It won’t be fun.

Can we get a hell yeah, brother? Bats like to yell just like us. Researchers at the prestigious University of Southern Denmark note that some bats use the same vocal structures as death metal singers to make their unique vocalizations. The scientists set out to understand exactly how Daubenton’s bats maximize their vocal range, but we are waiting for a group of bats to put out their first EP at any moment.

Studies have shown that these folds are crucial for a few unique forms of vocalization, like the distinctive “growling” death metal singers use. Scientists still don’t know what exactly the bats are communicating when they use their death metal growls. “Some seem aggressive, some may be an expression of annoyance, and some may have a very different function,” said study coauthor, friend of the show, and University of Southern Denmark biologist Lasse Jakobsen.

Five people, including two children, were found dead on Wednesday in Buffalo Grove. Police said around 11 a.m. Wednesday, officers went to a two-story home in the 2800-block of Acadia Terrace after receiving a call for a well-being check for a woman. After no one came to the door, police said they made forced entry and found five people dead inside.

Police have not revealed the names of the victims, but they have confirmed that it is a murder-suicide.

Q101 would like to extend our well wishes to everyone in Buffalo Grove after this horrific incident. Information on a crisis hotline can be found here.
