CJ And Jenn's What You Need To Know For December 5, 2019

Good morning Acadiana. CJ and Jenn in the Morning were just talking on the air about how folks can sometimes be rude around the holidays, a time when you would think people would be nicer. Don't let those people ruin your day. Today is going to be a great day. Sunny early, clouds roll in later in the day, 70.

Today CJ and Jenn will have C'mon Drew t-shirts before 8:00 AM and Cher tickets at 9:20 AM.

Today is National Repeal Day, International Ninja Day, Sacher Torte Day and Bathtub Party Day.
