    Oh—and we also had to find out if Chris even had jury duty today… which may or may not have determined if there was a show at all.

    Today on The Morning Brew with Chris Bennett & Best Friends, the cast of Show Low High School’s production of The Prince of Egypt stopped by the studio—and things got fun real fast.

    We talked about the show, what goes into putting on a production like this, and played some games that proved these theater kids might be smarter than all of us 😅

    It’s also Motivational Monday, so we shared some quotes about confidence, courage, and chasing your dreams—and picked our favorite with the cast.

    We also checked in with Jineane Ford from Magic 101.7 and iTalk 106.7, and heard from JD Pepper with Timber Mesa Fire Department for a Fire Marshal Minute and a fun round of trivia.

    🎭 The Prince of Egypt opens this week at Show Low High School!
    📅 Shows: April 23, 24, 30 & May 1–2 at 7PM
    📅 Matinees: April 25 & May 2 at 2PM
    🎟️ Tickets available online or at the door

    If you’re in the White Mountains, go support these incredibly talented students—you won’t regret it.

  • He Ditched His Wife for Olive Garden… Jerk or Genius? 😂
    Apr 15 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today’s show got WILD 😂

    We kicked off Am I the Jerk Court with a case that had everyone divided…

    👉 A guy told his wife he wanted a simple birthday… but she planned a fancy dinner anyway… so he ditched her and went to Olive Garden alone.

    Was he a jerk… or just doing exactly what he asked for?

    Judge Jineane Ford from Majik 101.7 and Italk 106.7 gave her ruling…

    …but then things got interesting when Kirk Nurmi called in with the COMPLETE opposite take.

    Plus:
    🎟️ We gave away Arizona Diamondbacks tickets to Bo Taylor on Jackie Robinson Day
    🍔 Played “McDonald’s or Made Up” (yes… McSpaghetti is a thing 😂)
    🤠 And caught up with Virgil the Cowboy from Eagar

    It’s everything you love about The Morning Brew — fun, chaos, and real conversations with the Best Friends.

    👉 Listen, laugh, and share with a friend who would 100% choose breadsticks over everything.
