The Free Beer and Hot Wings Show has also guest hosted The Dan Patrick Show on multiple occasions.
Holiday Break-in
Each December, the show solicits the nomination by their listeners of needy families to be the recipients of the Holiday Break-in for those unable to buy holiday gifts. Once the recipients are selected, participating radio affiliates break-in to the houses of these families (with the assistance of the nominator, a locksmith, and local police) and bring the holidays where there would be none.
