Annie and Cole Pick Holidays to Skip on 97.1 Hank FM

Indianapolis listeners tuning into 97.1 Hank FM heard a familiar debate on the morning show. Co-hosts Annie and Cole discussed which holidays they would skip if given the choice.

One host confessed to fear of backlash for their pick: Christmas. The host cited the pressure to buy gifts for everyone as a primary reason. They also complained about traveling to 87 different locations to see family members. The host described the experience as never feeling settled in.

Halloween also made the list of skipped holidays. The reason was personal. A host’s birthday falls close to the holiday. Friends at the birthday party wanted to dress up for Halloween. The host asked them to keep the two events separate. The host noted that this feeling likely matches the experience of people with December birthdays regarding Christmas.

The other side of the studio disagreed with the sentiment. They pointed out that a birthday near Labor Day has not caused hatred for that holiday. With a young child at home, the co-host predicted Halloween will become more enjoyable. They noted that trick-or-treating will become a major activity for the family soon.

The discussion highlighted common complaints about the holidays. These include gift shopping, travel, costumes, and crowded family dinners. Annie and Cole invited listeners to share which holiday they would skip. The show also promoted a playlist of Halloween country songs for Saturday.
