Guests:
Steve Hartline and Bridget Forrester kicked off Monday morning by soaking in the crisp, cool 62-degree weather—which Steve declared as prime "football weather." The morning took an amusing turn when Steve got distracted by mystery sounds down the hall and joked about folks playing the "Redneck Games" by slamming toilet seats during the show. Later, Steve ribbed Bridget about her supposed festival past, playfully accusing her of meeting her husband in a mud bath at Bonnaroo—a claim she quickly and adamantly denied!
