Morning Show
Chris "Purple" Hayes & Bobby Show
Chris Purple Hayes has been rocking the 4-states for 29 years. Yep — Chris Hayes came to Joplin and helped launch Big Dog 97.9. Bobby has done nights and weekends on the Big Dog for 9 years.
The two know that waking up early in the morning sucks. They want to make it brighter and hopefully a little easier to start your day.
Their mission is to play killer music and have a lot of fun doing it. We like to call it MFM — Music, Fun, Mornings!
Come for features like the Daily Dumbass, games like Wheel of Whatever, and some great conversations about the world, your lives, and ours. It's like having two friends in the car, home, or work with you.
