Advertise on podcast: Tater's Big Show Hangover - One More Round

Holy cannoli! Italy was wonderful, but that's not ALL Tater brought home! This week on Tater's Big Show Hangover — One More Round, Tater's back from her Italian adventure with stories of beautiful Florence, incredible food, Tuscan wine, and a few unexpected souvenirs! From cobblestone-induced aches and blisters to a four-hour Mahjongg Solitaire marathon at 35,000 feet, Tater shares the highlights, laughs, and aftermath of her Italian getaway. And apparently, her watch thought somebody had stolen it! PLUS! A little more time with Billy! We're dipping back into their lunch conversation, where Billy answers questions from listeners. It's another round of travel tales, Tatertainment, laughs, and a familiar voice from the Big Show! Love ya, mean it!

What do a $600,000 windfall, celebrity gossip, and a trip through radio history have in common? Apparently… TATER! 😂🎙️ This week on Tater's Big Show Hangover — One More Round, I've got some BIG financial news. It seems I've been personally selected to receive $3.6million! There's just one tiny problem… and it's a good reminder that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is! Then we're taking a little trip through the history of TATERTAINMENT! First, we're heading back to 2011 for one of those wonderfully unpredictable LIVE Big Show moments when the guys started piling on and I just kept feeding the fire. Then it's a blast into the future — or at least what we THOUGHT the future would look like back in 2008 — with Tatertainment 2058, written by Billy and produced by Randy. And believe it or not, some of those wild predictions are starting to come true! Finally, since I'm recording ahead of my Italian adventure, I've got absolutely NO IDEA what's happening in celebrity news this week. So I'm doing what any responsible entertainment reporter would do… MAKING IT ALL UP! 🤣 It's a brand-new Tatertainment From the Future, plus your listener letters, a requested classic Big Show bit, and plenty of laughs along the way. A note: The new Tatertainment celebrity headlines are fictional comedy and parody, not actual news. And that $3.6 million email? It's an apparent impersonation scam — not an offer from the real lottery winner. Thanks for hanging out with me, Taterheads! ❤️ ONE MORE ROUND!

Tater's in ITALY! 🇮🇹 But that doesn't mean the party stops! This week, we're serving up a little bit of everything! Some Tater talk, a fresh helping of Tatertainment, a weird news story that'll have you shaking your head, and a few listener comments! PLUS… as promised, Billy makes an appearance! We're catching up with my longtime Big Show Friend & Coworker for a little conversation, a few laughs, and some classic Big Show fun! It's a little nostalgia, a little nonsense, and a whole lotta Tater! Pull up a chair, grab your favorite beverage, and join me for ONE MORE ROUND!

Tater went to beauty school once. Notice we said went to. We did NOT say graduated. 😂 This week, Tater shares the story of her brief-but-promising career in facials, fake eyelashes and waxing — including one unfortunate incident involving hot wax and an eyebrow. And somehow, all these years later, Barry STILL lets her cut his hair. Her professional guarantee? “It’ll grow back. It’ll grow out. Wear a hat.” Plus: the nephews have an entire WEEK for Fall Break (when did THAT become a thing?!), cooler nights finally bring a little relief from menopause, Italy is just days away, and Tater catches up with the Big Show girls — including a special message from Pillars for the Taterheads. We’ll also get into a little Tatertainment, your comments from the socials, and a tease of what’s coming while Tater is in Italy — Billy is headed to the Hangover! Pour yourself One More Round and enjoy Episode 38 of Tater’s Big Show Hangover!

Yep. Before streaming, before prestige TV, before anybody knew what a podcast was… Tater had her big-screen-ish moment. 😂 This week, I tell the story of how a completely improvised audition landed me a role in Redneck Roots — a straight-to-DVD movie from 2011 that somehow found its way to Amazon Prime. Plus, a trip to the movies involves smuggled candy, Ziploc bags full of popcorn and a whole lot of crying; last week's OH DAMN! episode creates an OH DAMN moment of its own; and I’ve got a few tidbits in Tatertainment. And, of course, we’ll make another trip around the Round-About with your questions and comments! Pour yourself One More Round....

Ever have one of those weeks where “Oh damn” seems to cover just about everything? This week, Tater’s got a whole collection of them — cash disappearing from a pocket, an unexpected check in the mail, a prescription ringing up at $0, an earring situation, and Arby’s steak nuggets that tasted suspiciously like… roast. Plus, after a week of football, flag football and baseball, there’s one question that needs answering: Parents, how do you DO this?! We’ll also catch up on Tatertainment, take a trip through Weird News, answer a character request, and hear from you in Listener Comments. It’s another round of the stuff you didn’t know you needed to talk about. Tater’s Big Show Hangover — One More Round!

Who knew a dead car battery would lead to the perfect birthday gift? Tater gets home from Pittsburgh just in time for a mammogram, a dead battery and an unexpected Costco discovery that proves everything old really does become new again. Plus, there’s Tatertainment, John Boy’s Bloopers, Myrtle reminds us to “Honk If You Love Jesus,” and your listener comments— My Favorite part of the show XOXO. It’s another round of Tater’s Big Show Hangover — One More Round!

Twenty-five years later, I stepped away from the microphone and let the voices, sounds, music and Big Show memories tell the story. This is my tribute to September 11, 2001 — to those we lost, those who ran toward danger, those who survived, those who still carry its scars, and a day none of us will ever forget. The interview was with Will Jimeno, the Port Authority Officer who was trapped in the rubble. His story was made into a movie in 2006 titled "World Trade Center".

Hey Y'all - I've been out of town to be with family and did not make it back to my home studio in time for TATER TUESDAY. I'll be back home later this week and will have a TATER THURSDAY EPISODE 35! Please enjoy an encore performance of Episode 15 ... I just love my nephew singing Happy Birthday in a voicemail to me - that I repurposed for his Mom's Birthday. As well as listener questions, some Backyard Ball and the Lunch Menu Man origins. Thank You for your understanding. You're The BEST! Love ya - Marci

Last week the world lost Dolly Parton. Everyone mourns the loss of this friend, she felt like one to everybody. She never met a stranger. Many of you asked for a Dolly Tribute Show. I hope this comes close to what you were hoping to hear. What an amazing time that was to be working in radio. To have a guest like Dolly in your studio. Thank You for all the amazing things I got to do with The John Boy & Billy Big Show. LYMI - Tater

Ever heard of a shirt YOKE? Neither had Tater... until she tried to order a football fan shirt and got schooled. Then we go behind the scenes of The Big Show to find out what was going on while you were listening to a song/commercial break - maybe a smoke break, coffee run, last-minute scripts and sometimes the microphone opening up before everyone was in their seat! Plus Tatertainment; a few good-news stories for a change; and your comments & questions that will send us back into the archives for a couple legacy bits. It's Episode Dirty-Tree of Tater's Big Show Hangover - One More Round!!

This week, I'm exhausted by the news... so naturally , I brought you more news. We've got Social Media News, My News, Weird News and Tatertainment News - Plus some of Your Comments, and a quick update from Lane Ostrow with Honor One / Coins for Courage. I also discovered, while trying to escape the news, that I've officially become my mother. There's cleaning, deep cleaning and then there's my mother's Elaine Cleaning! You can guess which one I did. Thanks as always for hanging out with me for One More Round (now pick up after yourself, I just cleaned in here!)

After the incredible response to Episode 30, Tater says thank you - and gets back to the regularly scheduled Hangover! In this weeks episode... blue lights that aren't police, a psychic posts a flyer on a telephone pole, a bit of Tatertainment, Y'alls Big Show memories we discussed on social media and a touching trip back to the moments when morning radio became a safe space (before safe spaces were a "thing"). Thanks for coming by for One More Round

You asked for longer conversations... so here you go 🧡🧡 For Episode 30, I'm stepping aside and giving you what so many of you have been asking for: an extended visit with John Boy. For more than an hour, we sit down at the farm and talk about retirement, how he found his way into radio, meeting Billy, the early days of The Big Show, listener questions, unforgettable memories. You'll hear stories and perspectives from Jackie and John Boy's wife that - you may not have heard before. If you've missed spending time with John Boy (I know I have), pour yourself a beverage, settle in, and enjoy an unhurried conversation with an old friend. Thank You for making 30 episodes possible, I couldn't have made it this far without all of you. 🧡🧡 Runtime: 1 hour, 26 minutes

This week, Tater pulls up a chair at THE KIDS' TABLE with two very special guests: her 9-year-old twin nephews ( would have been BIG SHOW KIDS if the show was still on the air)... The kids were able to choose their own "radio" names for the interview. Please welcome Spiderkid and Crusty the Clown! They've got opinions about grown-ups, the future, each other and plenty more - and some of their answers lead us straight back to classic Big Show moments from over the years. It's kids, memories, a lot of sugar and a few surprises. What could go wrong? Plus, Tater has been out to the farm with JOHN BOY... and you'll be hearing from him in upcoming episode(s).
