Hi, It’s Craig Russell, host of The Afternoon Hustle here on Classic Hits 98.7 WFGR! I have worked in places all over Michigan, but that’s not important. I’m here in West Michigan now, eatin' Fred's Pizza (yum!) buying my milk at Meijer, and playing Classic Hits of the 60's 70's and 80's FOR YOU! Call, email or Facebook the show and be part of the fun!

Pat Sajak Loses It. Really.
Pat Sajak has hosted "Wheel of Fortune" for 81 years. That's only strange because he just turned 68 last month, but I digress. He's a TV icon, with thousands of broadcasts under his belt.
R.I.P. Mrs. Wolowitz…We Hardly Knew Ya.

The Best Fast Food Breakfast? Probably On Your List
The best fast-food breakfast is probably on your list.

Airplane Hits WHAT On Takeoff??
These are the stories you can't make up. An airplane was taking off at an airport in India a couple of days ago and hit something as it was beginning to leave the field.

Some products are synonymous with their picture. You can always see The Golden Arches in the McDonalds logo. And with most Apple products (I Phones, etc) there is one recurring theme.

It’s MoVember!! Prostate Cancer Awareness Month!
Yes! For the 4th year now, I'm growing the facial hair out to raise awareness for Prostate Cancer in Men! Means I don't have to shave!
