A weekend of giving turned into a week of momentum. We kick off today with Jineane Ford from our sister stations Majik 101.7 and iTalk 106.7 as we recap the White Mountain Helping Hands Festival of Trees—a packed, energetic event supporting local first responders and White Mountain charities. From the generosity in the room to a certain battery-powered Christmas jacket lighting up the night, it was a weekend full of heart.

We roll right into the theme of gratitude with some Thanksgiving-ready motivational quotes customized for this season, plus simple ways you can turn gratitude into action—whether that’s supporting local nonprofits, attending community events, or helping a neighbor feel seen and supported.

That spirit continues as Show Low Mayor John Leech Jr. calls in to share the incredible results of the Annual Fast of Compassion—raising over $40,000 in less than a week to help feed families in the White Mountains this holiday season. He also previews the Festival of Lights Parade coming December 6th and the tree lighting that officially kicks off Christmas in Show Low.

Then it’s time for our resident Hallmark critic: Andrea delivers another Christmas movie review, this time for Christmas Above the Clouds, a Dickens-inspired story with holiday charm… and a few missed opportunities.

We wrap the show with comedian Ryan McKee, who’s headlining in Show Low on December 20th at Rocky’s Cocktail Lounge. He shares Thanksgiving plans, new material he’s been working on, and why he’s excited to bring a fresh hour of comedy back to the White Mountains. Early-bird tickets are $5 off this week at ChrisBennettComedy.com.

It’s community, gratitude, humor, and holiday spirit—all woven into one show.
