Fox40:
Viewers Voice: Popular teen clothing story Tilly's is taking some heat for selling a controversial line of clothes. The "Snoop Dogg Rasta Leaves" line features images of marijuana leaves. Upset parents say those images desensitize children to drug use. According to the LA Times, Tilly's is removing that line of clothing from stores in Southern California, but hasn't said if it will do the same elsewhere. Our Viewers Voice Question: Do retailers have a responsibility to police the content of images seen in their stores?

Ken's Manly Minute: Talking About Yourself
By talking openly about our accomplishments, we have a greater chance of being remembered and not forgotten. The entire notion of self-promotion is excruciatingly difficult for many professionals to embrace, even if they know it is critical for their own survival. Here are 5 ways you can share your most interesting experiences and stories, without sounding like you are bragging. Share a sense of wonder. Be Grateful. No humble bragging. Get a wingman. Be brief.

Fox40:

Paul talked about American Idol Food Truck Mania is coming to Roseville. Strike Zone Athletics is opening in Auburn this Saturday Zohreen talked to Alpha K9 about their organization and Sabrina talked to Steve from Folsom about Dangerous Waters Season 3. 

Good Day Sacramento:
430/5am:
In this hour we had 2 segments of Show and Tell. Marianne shared Joan Rivers is selling her furniture because her Conn home is haunted. Courtney is falling apart she now has to wear a brace on her hand. I too wear that same brace because I lost all feeling from being diabetic however that is not Courtney's issue. Ken had the best show and tell of a local Modesto man who takes old stereo's and makes them into the ultimate cooler with your team colors. We need to get Jeff on the show. Today's Show us your topic is... Throwback for Throwback Thursday. 

6am:
In this hour Melissa was at Sharif Jewelers checking out their vault. I will be in that vault once the lottery decides to pick my numbers. Doug the Car Czar was in the Carmichael park talking about why you need to get your car in when the check engine light comes on. Julissa had an interesting idea brought on my CBS This Morning, They have their own Pandora station of the bumper music they play throughout the show coming in and out of the breaks. Julissa would like a Good Day Station and I LOVE the idea. I hope they do it. Unfortunately the weekend playlist we loved was sent packing.

7am:
In this hour Melissa continued from Sharif Jewelers checking out their vault. Ken talked to Actress/PH. D Mayim Bialik about how she works with woman/girls to motivate them to go after their career. Julissa talked to local author Pamela Conrad who wrote Grandma Camp and Doug was back with more Q&A from Carmichael Park for all your car questions. 

8am:
In this busy hour Doug was back with more car questions and answers. Tina talked to Barefoot Wine about ideas for St. Patrick's Day. Melissa was checking out bees. Teen's tunes today featured mostly 80's songs and the 9amtopic is a HOT Button  New Jersey law blocks dads from delivery room. We want to know what you think. Yea or Nay.

9am:
In this hour Melissa does the bee dance with bees. Gina from ThriftTown showed off GREAT DIY Projects for St. Patrick's Day. Courtney rode a bike through the streets of Sacramento with the new Hyatt Rent a bike program. Julissa talked about Trending Topics that included an idea for a Floating Island Vacation resort. The 9amtopic was talked about with Julissa and Laura. Ken's Manly Minute talked about talking about yourself without being a jerk. Earlier Tina wanted to know your mood, now she wants to know your mood now in today's final question.

Final Thoughts:
Final
Today was a very good day on the 3 shows. While most of my concentration will be on Good Day Sacramento I will give props to Fox40 on a solid show for them and My58 for bouncing back from Monday.

My58 did good today but I really wish they would let their hair down more at least in the final hour but again knowing their format credit is due for the show today. 

Fox40 covered a lot today. But the things I enjoyed more were Zohreen from the Robotic completion in Davis. I'm admitting now I'm a sucker for that stuff. Plus I love seeing pet of week from SPCA. One thing I don't get was on Idol Chatter. How is the first guy who sang a Beatles song not in trouble? That was AWFUL! Jessica was not as bad as he was. 

On Good Day Sacramento Courtney riding the bike was hilarious but what a novel idea from the Hyatt you can rent a bike for $20 or less a day and ride around downtown, that's a pretty good deal. 

I love Thrifty Thursday with Gina from ThriftTown. She always has great ideas. 

Loved having Melissa checking out the bling at Sharif Jewelers. Such beautiful Jewelry that normal people can't afford to even look at. 

Missing from the show today was our Weekend Leader Cody. If you missed his tweet/Facebook post around 9pm PST it said his Walking Pneumonia was back. So let's hope he feels better soon but weekenders if in the case Cody is not well enough to be there we need to rally around Amy, Lori, Melissa, Tina, Cambi, and Nina this weekend to blow the roof off  the ratings. 

Today was a Good Day Sacramento and let's make tomorrow even better. A lot is planned including.....


Looking Ahead to what's coming up on Good Day Sacramento:

Friday:
For the Life of a Child Raffle Winners Announced. 
Dance Party Friday

Saturday:
Good Day Weekend w/ Cody and Amy

Sunday:
Good Day Weekend w/ Cody and Amy
Ask Eleanor
Dishin With Tina - The Bennett Family (Sean, Melissa and Kids) dishin the bennets
