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).

Breakfast of Champions? No, But It’s What I Eat!
For years, I simply didn't eat breakfast. In fact, when I was a kid I HATED breakfast food. Over the years, I've developed an appreciation for omelets, pancakes, biscuits and gravy, hash browns, etc.
Yet, I still wouldn't eat the "most important meal of the day" on a daily basis; opting to eat lunch around 11:30 a...
A Birthday Wish Came True

Well, Marie and my Cousin Tony spent some time unwrapping Starburst candy and presented the bowl pictured above to me at a family gathering over the weekend...

I’m Ready for Fall Weather and Foliage
Fall is my favorite season and it's the reason I will never live anywhere other than the Midwest. Understand when I say that I'm ready for temps to drop into the upper-50's, I'm not sick of upper-70's temps by any means. I'm just ready to enjoy fall to its' fullest; long-sleeved t-shirts, jeans, chili, football and beautiful fall foliage painting the bluffs in orange, gold and maroon...
My Daughter LOVES Her Baby Jumper
Over Labor Day weekend, my wife, daughter and I went to my parent's house in Minnesota and, while we were there, my daughter was introduced to their jumper that they'd had for a few years for their other granddaughters.

I Love My Sundays
I don't hide the fact that I love the NFL. I love any form of football and I do love my Saturdays at Lot One watching college football, but the NFL trumps college in my book. Some people love going to the bar to watch football with a large group of people...
