My dad once told me we eat eight to ten spiders a year in our sleep and I didn’t find out it was a lie until college when I told my new friends that “fun fact”

Replying to @newheightshow
@newheightshow #nodumbquestion here! We know Jason is pulling an Ed Kelce by lying to his kids, so what sort of lies did your dad telling you growing up? How did you find out they weren’t true?

And honorable mention to the lie that we needed to take showers and get ready for bed before storms moved in, because otherwise the lightning would electrocute us through the shower

Big respect for @abc for fact checking in real time on this debate.

June 6 will be my last day at KMBC. The past two years in Kansas City have been a dream. I couldn’t have asked for a better newsroom with better colleagues. In a few weeks, I’ll make the move back to California. I’m thrilled to join the talented team at @kcranews !!!

Right in front of Lisa Bluder and Jan Jensen… Kate Martin checks in for the first time, joining Caitlin Clark and Megan Gustafson. All three Hawkeyes on the floor, at the same time. A memorable moment.

My friend Brandon Greenwood is a pilot. He took a flight over Greenfield to look at the damage path. Here’s his video #greenfield #greenfieldtornado #iowa #iawx #tornado #desmoines
