I've been hosting the Afternoon Show on Y105 for more than seven years! I have a beautiful wife, Claudia, and adorable daughter, Lydia. I've lived in Dubuque for over a decade and I absolutely love this city! I host Hawkeye games at Lot One on Saturdays in the fall, 'The Dating Game' at Skinny Maginny's one Tuesday a month and can be found pushing a stroller on walks along South Grandview from time-to-time. I'm a passionate Minnesota Vikings fan (and Twins, Wild and Wolves), but truly appreciate having a fun conversation with the adversary (Bears, Packers fans).

R.I.P. Rick Ducommun
Actor Rick Ducommun has died at age 58. He's an actor you may have never heard of but you almost certainly have seen. Ducommun co-starred with Tom Hanks in The 'Burbs and also appeared in Ghost in the Machine, Gremlins 2 and Scary Movie...
A Blast from the Past
I make it well-known that I'm a Minnesota sports fan: Vikings, Twins, Wild and Wolves. That's why I was more excited than most would be here in the Tri-States when my buddy, Scott, brought six posters out to the radio station yesterday.
While the Twins are nowhere near the World Series drought the Cubs are currently in, the Minnesota sports market as a whole has not had a championship of any kind

How High Do You Let the Junk Pile Up?
Earlier this week I took time to clean out some of the junk that's been piling up in my office over the years. Random items used for giveaways, shirts from events that happened over a decade ago, out-dated station swag (the station has a different name/brand) and a Phil Hellmuth poker book comprised a majority of the junk...
Don’t Get Fooled!
I've noticed several of my Facebook friends have posted a picture of the date displayed inside the DeLorean time machine in 'Back to the Future II' as June 10, 2015. That's NOT CORRECT!
In fact, there's a tumblr page you can view HERE that is dedicated to making every date look like the date to which Marty travels in the future...
What Happens When You Drink 20-Year Old Crystal Pepsi?
Below is a video of a guy who decided to try and drink pop that was discontinued in 1993. It ends horribly. There is some language that is not suitable for work (NSFW)!!!!! You've been warned. By the way, while thinking back to food items that were discontinued, I wish McDonald's would bring back the Southwest Chicken Wrap; it was ridiculously spicy and tasty...

A Day in Madison
Sometimes a day trip doesn't need to be anything more than your family spending a day together, running errands and, of course, eating a good meal. My wife, daughter and I went to Madison, WI for the day on Saturday so my wife could buy scrubs for a new job she started yesterday (Monday)...
