Josie's Lonely Hearts Club

Mind your P's and Cuties, because today KDNM is under the magnifying glass.  There's a private investigator sniffing around the studio, up close and very, very personal. Joanne and Frank are sweating under the scrutiny, and not just because of their big secret. On air, meet a culinary cutthroat, someone dealing with a monster in the closet, an unsupported entrepreneur, and a serial pet-owner with a lot of explaining to do.

Oh behave, cuties! Joanne is coming to the nation live from KBXV headquarters and has to be on her best behavior. With a change of scenery, Jo is performing for a whole new crowd, with a whole new set of rules. Can she keep her cool around weapons-grade hottie Dr. Mark? Or will her conscience spill out like so many heaving breasts unlaced in a moment of passion? Meet an Oklahoman speaking in code, a workplace flirtation gone flat, a teaching tool with unintended consequences, and a filthy little shame-pig.

Throw open the windows and air the place out -- after all that nonsense last week, it's time to get spruced up for that national slot. Nothing to worry about here, and anyone who says otherwise needs their mouth washed out. In fact, let's give the whole show a thorough scrubbing. In this sparkling episode, you'll meet a grandson with a housing problem, a snoop who likes it raw, a janitorial two-timer, and a very raunchy germaphobe.

Season Five is here, and with it …comes scandal. Not for Josie, no way, but for a national show at KBXV. The time is ripe for a regime change…can the Lonely Hearts nab that precious drivetime slot? If Frank and Joanne want to impress those execs, they’ll need more than a foolproof plan. They’ll need a scheme-proof plan. Look alive, cuties, there are nefarious forces at work. Our favorite dynamic duo will need to outwit new foes while they catch up with old friends. We welcome back callers to ask, “Where Are They Now?” “How Have You Been?” and...

Brush up your Shakespeare and Feed the Birds, this week we try to class the joint up a little. We're catching Joanne mid-glow-up, doing her best to be Our Fair Lady. Time is ticking down to Thanksgiving, and Fr--er, Pennybutt--seems even squirrellier than usual. In the spirit of impersonation, the show's theme is sweet little lies, and Josie navigates a bevy two-faced cuties. Meet a faux-dio clown, a wrestler with a dark and smelly past, a veracity-challenged individual, and perhaps the best (and definitely real-est) boyfriend ever!

Spirits are high and spooky season is nigh -- let's scare up a few cuties for this special Halloween episode! This week Frank and Joanne are "exorcizing" their rights, driven to desperate measures to rid their studio of its meddlesome poltergeist. There's also a pretty fundamental costume mix-up, it'll take more than a sugar cube to butter up Ruby this time. Meet a forgetful barfly channelling Karloff, a mistaken identity that might get murderous, a hottie lost on a campsite, and one fella who's really been playing the (potter's) field.

We hope you're sitting down for this - the KDNM family just got a little smaller, and Josie decides to turn the show into a remembrance ceremony. Plus, Frank's being kind of squirrelly. What's that about? When the lines open up, Josie pitches a novel to a murder suspect, counsels a paranormal throuple, audits a recent widow, and mediates a marriage bedeviled by daredevilry (that's very fun to say out loud - go ahead, try it).
