I started in radio in January of 1975 in my hometown of Butler, MO. Off and on I’ve been behind a microphone, either at a radio station or in a nightclub. I’m married, have six kids, and nine grandkids. I love watching the Kansas City Royals and old western TV shows and movies. I enjoy working with everyone at the station and our parent company, Townsquare Media. I love doing my part to make it fun to listen to the radio.

A time is usually set for 4:45 pm but sometimes it gets pushed up to 4:30 just because we're sitting around waiting, and of course, we're hungry. So, eating at that time of the day...does that mean I'm getting old?

Are You Constantly Asking to Have Something Repeated? Signs of Hearing Loss
I've know for some time that my hearing is deteriorating. I mean, go figure, working in radio stations wearing headphones since I was sixteen with the volume louder than it probably needed to be. Along with that working in the nightclubs business with all the the recorded and live music blaring probably didn't help.
