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).

Suggestion for Grilling Burgers
I've already blogged about how much I've been grilling lately, but one item that I've received a few compliments on is my burgers. Here is the key: Dale's seasoning.
I like using ground chuck, but have used ground beef and, without fail, people will ask, "what did you do with these burgers...
A Run/Walk to Benefit Kids with Life-Threatening Illnesses
This is what I'd call a win-win-win situation: help out sick kids, enjoy a spring day and get some exercise!
Do all of the above with the Sprint for Special Spaces 1.5 mile color run/walk at the University of Dubuque on Saturday, April 25th beginning at 9:00 a...
A Day I Will NEVER Forget
Last Saturday I had one goal: try to replicate my friend's chicken wing sauce and throw some poultry on the grill. To help me accomplish that mission was another friend, Tyler, who was in town from Minnesota.
We went to the grocery store to load up on supplies; the last thing we grabbed was a habanero and jalapeno pepper...
Lydia Meets Her Great Grandparents
I'm fortunate to have grown up with three of my four grandparents; those three are still alive today. I have so many great memories with them and couldn't ask for more loving, generous grandparents.
It was special to introduce the most important person in my life to three people who have played such an important role in both my childhood and adulthood...
It’s Official: My Daughter Is Part of the Family
Last weekend, my wife, daughter and I went up to my hometown in Rochester, MN for Easter. The highlight of the weekend was introducing my daughter to most of my family for the first time.
One tradition in our family is that every new addition gets a Christmas stocking made for them...
My Wife Says This Gas is OK
I finally caved and bought a gas grill; I've told people for years I wouldn't use anything other than charcoal. The convenience factor was too much to pass up.
My wife will ultimately enjoy this the most as I'm not doing most/all of the cooking during the evening...
Does Airing Your Dirty Laundry on Social Media Help?
Last night I was skimming through my Facebook News Feed and it felt like I was reading the text of a Jerry Springer episode. I came across four of my Facebook 'Friends' complaining about their relationship or recent breakup with their former significant other...
Battling a Cold
Last Friday morning I woke up with a sore throat. We all know what this ultimately leads to: a cold! My co-worker gave my some Emergen-C (100% vitamin C supplement) and I was sucking on Halls defense drops.
Friday nights I host my 2-hour talk show on AM 1490 WDBQ live at TPC Sports Bar inside Mystique Casino and last Saturday morning, I had a live broadcast at Ubersox Auto Group in Platteville; no
