If you're the person that decided it would be a good idea to buy onion rings from Dollar Tree in Missouri or Illinois, please know they have been recalled because of allergy dangers.

Aldean's next album will find the singer doing something he hasn't done in over a decade.

Jason Aldean is currently working on his 11th studio album. Will there be a Jason and Brittany Aldean collaboration on it?

I love land. Not the dirt so much as the scenery and nature that goes along with it. If you want to see the ultimate that's currently available in Missouri, I'll show it to you. It's 652 acres near Defiance, Missouri and it's full of waterfalls and deer.

It makes you wonder if some people have lost their soul. A woman shared pathetic video from a Walmart in Illinois that has been nearly completely looted.

I am cautiously optimistic that a brand new type of food option could land in Missouri in the near future based on the fact that a California-born taquito joint is already making big time expansion plans very near the Show Me State.

His 'Yellowstone' jokes are pretty hilarious.

May 21, 2023 seemed to be an ordinary day for Dr. John Forsyth after he completed his shift at Mercy Hospital in Cassville, Missouri. He texted his fiancée and then seemed to vanish into thin air.

Seeing a squirrel is no big deal. It's actually rare when you don't see a squirrel in Illinois or Missouri for that matter. One Illinois homeowner did have a rare encounter with one of these creatures you don't often see - an all-white Albino squirrel.

There are two interesting pieces of information to share with you. 1. A black bear was spotted near Salem, Missouri. 2. The police are advising that citizens not wrestle it. Both of those statements are remarkably true.

After a long Memorial Day weekend, it was back to work and the normal routine for many. What wasn't normal was the fact that the US military's 'Doomsday Plane' just flew over Illinois and Iowa, but it's fine. It's probably fine.

In his Memorial Day Parade performance, Morgan paid tribute to the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

I am not a runner. I used to be, but not having enough time in my day took that love away. However, for those of you that LOVE running, there is a new ranking of the best cities to run in and one Missouri city landed on the worst place to run.

180 of the biggest cities in the United States were ranked from best to worst for raising a family, and St. Louis was near the very bottom of the list. Why did St. Louis rank so poorly?

I don't want to rain on the parade of those who want to believe that extraterrestrials are visiting our planet every day, but most sightings of unidentified flying objects can easily be explained by science. However, among the 40 UFO reports in Missouri already in 2023, some can't easily be explained away.

It's not exactly breaking news that buying and selling homes is hard. There are so many laws and regulations plus best practices that you need to understand the details of. One question that gets asked more than you probably realize is whether or not you're required to disclose if your house is haunted to a prospective buyer. The law in Illinois is tricky.
