In the midst of all the negative in the news, Abby will be bringing you some “Happy Headlines”, each weekday morning at 6:45 and 7:45am! Listen to hear some HAPPY news for a change!
It’s a morning show feature here on Mix 96.9…because I feel like we could all use a little more good news in our lives…all bad news has been CANCELLED – at least for the moment.
Presented by Cullman Regional Medical Center! Helping you get better by being better every day!
- Food City and other Associated Food Stores, held a month long fundraiser to support United Way and Hurricane Helene Relief. Together they raised almost $74K for those devastated by the storm.
- A long awaited family reunion. Dixon, who had been adopted as a young boy, recently found his original birth certificate and learned he has brothers and sisters. Last weekend the 75 year old flew to NY, to finally meet them, just in time for their family’s annual Christmas party.
- Present of the year comes from this woman’s boyfriend of three years. Danny gifted Tina with a jar of “Happy Pills”, each filled with a sweet note. Like “I wish I had met you sooner”, “I absolutely love seeing you smile” and “You truly make life better for everyone”.
December 30 – January 3
Abby & Bill have tickets to watch the Huntsville Havoc – their next game, January 10 is LIGHT UP THE NIGHT! Glow Night with LED towel giveaways and specialty glow-in-the-dark jerseys! Havoc Vs. Peoria
It’s those news stories that are true, but on the “crazy” side, bringing sometime laughter, and other times leaving listeners scratching their heads! Crazy But True can be heard at 6:15 and 8:20 each weekday morning!

Some people might accidentally leave behind their keys or maybe their cell phone. But what was left at this movie theatre is Crazy But True.
The cinema staff was cleaning up after the last feature film of the evening when they made a unique discovery…that was probably a first for any movie theatre nationwide. An urn, with the ashes still inside, was tucked underneath one of the cinema seats. The Urn was placed in lost and found and police were notified. After several posts on social media…and several months…a woman finally came forward. She asked to remain anonymous and claimed it was her father’s ashes with whom she had a strained relationship. So, it was no accident that the urn was left in the theatre and it is…
Crazy But True!
