Maryann Russell PhotographyThat's the end of another week on Aimee+Shawn and man are our... legs... tired.
On Monday, Shawn, 102.7 VGS afternoon host Sammi and several other members of the Beasley Media Group family laced up their shoes and headed to The STRAT. The group went up 1,455 steps to go from the bottom to the top of the famed Las Vegas landmark for Scale The STRAT benefitting the American Lung Association. Shawn did finish but it turns out he was one of the slowest times of the day. 602nd out of 622 competitors. Yikes.
The showing for Shawn was so bad, he finally broke. With Aimee on her keto kick, and Sammi planning to get fit and try out to be a Raiderette, Shawn (who was the one person on the staff that really needs to get healthier) decided to get on board.
Aimee couldn't make the event (but she climbed every step last week). Instead she went out to Mesquite for her son's football tournament. That tournament turned out to be a big, dramatic disaster that had fists flying, parking lots inescapable, and more insanity.
Meanwhile, Aimee's friend is going to inherit some property... but that friend's wife is already calling dibs, and that friend's parents aren't quite dead yet. Awkward.
The show also took on the biggest issue going on behind the scenes at 102.7 VGS... reply all emailers. The ones that find it necessary to send "Thanks!" to 112 fellow employees.
Finally, in a heartwarming moment, Aimee+Shawn read a book to all the schools at once for Nevada Reading Week.
What's coming up this week on Aimee+Shawn?
The show returns Monday with a concert ticket double down all week! Two times during each show, listen and win tickets to not only Gorillaz at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood... but also Red Hot Chili Peppers at Allegiant Stadium! See you Monday!
Listen to Aimee+Shawn weekday mornings from 6-10 on 102.7 VGS

He came, he saw, he barely finished. Shawn tackled Scale The STRAT benefitting the American Lung Association and while he did make 1,455 steps... his finishing time didn't set any records. Even close.
Movies That Haven't Been Made Yet
Shawn got a chance to see Cocaine Bear and he absolutely loved it. The movie was "based on a true story" but it turns out... it was barely based on a true story. Is there another barely based on a true story story that has yet to be told?
