Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - Lauren Whitney

Now with four hours of sleep under our belts, we're ready for the remaining 250 miles of road between Dallas and San Antonio. We had an interesting night at SMU to say the least...more on that later. For now, we're grabbing some coffee and grub before hitting the road. Let's crank up some tunes from Lauren Whitney's playlist.

Country Grammar - Nelly
Fight Tigers! - Marching Mizzou
Sexy Back - Justin Timberlake

This trio of tunes is getting us jacked up this morning. GO TIGERS!

Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - Eric Blumberg

We just crossed into the great state of Texas! Dallas is approaching slowly but surely. We heard the Cowboys scored a big victory tonight over the Packers, so we expect Texans to be in a good mood tonight.

As we cross into Texas, we change our tunes to Dallas native Eric Blumberg’s favorites. Here were his suggestions for the trip.

Guns ‘N Roses
50 Cent
Sports Talk Radio

As is typical with Eric, he is very specific about what he likes. Sports talk radio? Yeah, at 1:00 in the morning, two guys yelling at each other about the BCS is really going to keep us from driving off a bridge. Who’s the kid here, are you kidding me?

Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - Jim Riek

We are about 15 miles away from Tulsa and chugging along. It's probably for the best that it's dark here on I-44 in Oklahoma, it's not like we're missing anything scenic...

In the official Ultimate Road Trip Grand Am we have switched to the radio for now to mix things up, but here are KOMU anchor extraordinaire Jim Riek's top three driving songs:

1. "China Grove" - Doobie Brothers (word on the street is Jim may be doing a story about China Grove later on in the week, we'll keep you posted)
2. "Ridin' Dirty" - Chamillionaire
3. "Tubthumping" - Chumbawumba

Enjoy.

P.S. We may or may not have made up two of the three songs on Jim's list.

Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - Angie Bailey

We just finished dinner in Springfield with former KOMU meteorologist Josh deBerge. Zio's in Springfield is top notch Italian eating, highly recommended. We are uploading the video of our chat with Josh right now. Until then, enjoy Angie Bailey's top three car songs.

1. "Wicked Game" - Chris Isaak
2. "Free Fallin'" - Tom Petty
3. "Wannabe" - Spice Girls
