Melissa and Heidi: Who needs coffee? Wake up to our mom bloggers on the radio
Melissa and Heidi Omaha World-Herald

Wake up to momaha bloggers Melissa Cruickshank and Heidi Woodard every Thursday on the “Pat and J.T. in the Mornings” show on Q98.5 FM.

The moms will be on the air 6:45 a.m. every Thursday for an hour or so.

This week’s topic: Heidi’s blog “3 cringe-worthy sports stories of coaching misconduct.”

Heidi plans to “call out coaches for being certifiably nuts.” She’ll also tell parents “if they’re lucky enough to have a good coach for their son or daughter, to THANK THEM for all the hard work they put into a predominantly selfless job.”

Call 402-962-9898 to join the conversation.
