Today’s episode of The Morning Brew with Chris Bennett & Best Friends is one for the books — music, mayhem, and a surprise caller who brought more spice than eggnog.

We kick things off with our Country Climb Star of the Week, sent our way by Austin Burke’s Playlisted Podcast — the incredible Ryan Harmon. Ryan shares the story behind his new single “Making a Living,” we play the track, and listeners immediately start calling in with reactions… including one surprise request from Paul in Beaumont that sends us spinning into Ryan’s song “I Knew This Would Happen.”

Then Andrea gives us another Hallmark Christmas Movie Review, followed by Jan the Weather Man calling in for National Ding-A-Ling Day. Chris and Jan take the “Are YOU a Ding-A-Ling?” test with questions like:
• Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why?
• Waved at someone who wasn’t waving at you?
• Lost your phone while holding it?
Spoiler: we’re absolutely ding-a-lings.

And just when we think the morning can’t get any wilder… we get a mystery caller who declares, “Your trivia is crap!” before hanging up. (Or did she say “legit”? You decide.)

Paul From Beaumont calls in next to praise Ryan Harmon and request more music. Jan calls back in as well to double down: Ryan is the real deal.

Packed with laughs, live reactions, country music storytelling, and one unforgettable caller, this episode is a perfect Friday mood-setter.
