Man was 2022, as stated in the title, a weird year full of some highs and lows as lived out on the radio. Here are a few memories of significance:
BEST: Everything Austin FC-J
What an exciting year for soccer fans and the home team! Austin FC not only improved upon their record but made the playoffs and the Western Conference Finals in only the second year of the club’s existence. On top of that, I got to experience some of the matches as a professional member of the sporting press and even play in the media cup.

WEIRD: canceling Just Matt & CJ but transitioning to The CJ Morgan Show with Spenny, Emily & Matt
Changing the show again was a bit weird but it turned out for the better as Emily joined the group, Matt stayed around and Spenny got more opportunity to showcase his talent.
BEST: Contest of Influencers & Making Commercials for non clients
In an attempt to make money, we started creating random commercials for randomly chose clients from our lotto bin. Comdidien Avery Moore was actually paid for her Smoking Burnouts Smokeshop bit.
WORST: getting COVID on my birthday
Getting old sucks especially when no one is there to celebrate it with you.
@thecjmorgan Treating my Covid symptoms with some good ol fashioned chicken noodle soup! #fyp #featurethis #creamy #covid #treatment #foodtiktok
@thecjmorgan Covid got you feeling down? Take it from me, treating your symptoms can be easy! #fyp #featurethis #creamy #covid #treatment #foodtiktok #keurigmachine #healthyliving
BEST: Prank Calling in sick to work on 420 w/ Emily
WORST: Losing to Matt
As a part of our weekly sports bet and Punishment Plinko we introduced the Physical Challenge and I lost a lot of matches I should have won.

WEIRD: Continuing to Prank Call My Poor Mom
With everyone in studio as my witness this is not scripted and she falls for it every time. Poor mah.
BEST: Almost Sports w/ Jason
Jason and I got a sports show on the new 1027 ESPN. Unfortunately it was cut short by amongst many things, lightening.
WORST: losing Almost Sports and RIP Jason
The whale in the room and everything about this sucked
BEST: Setting the chicken McNugget record
WEIRD: wearing the same outfit for six days of ACL fest interviews and Emily – or anyone – seemed to noticed
Emily and I took charge interviewing many artists during the two weekends of ACL Fest including Wet Leg, Spoon, The War on Drugs and Noah Cyrus. Over the course of the six days I wore the same outfit and no one cared to notice.
WEIRD: Bob’n 4 Baloney
One of our most popular and consultant hated punishments.
BEST: Undefeated at Edit or Bet It
The four of us play a weekly pop culture game called Edit or Bet it and I keep winning.

WEIRD: MC Spenn-C
Spencer had been tasked with producing the songs I write on the toilet about my dogs and fiancé. He has superseded expectations.
