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).

David Letterman’s 30-Year Run is Ending in One Week!
For my entire life (the part I remember at least), David Letterman has been being 'The Late Show' desk. Letterman will put a bow on his 30-year run as a late-night TV show host next Wednesday, May 20th.
Even if watching Letterman is not part of your evening routine, I would encourage you to stay up a little later than usual or put anything else your watching on hold to tune in as a legend comes do

I Love Watching Hockey, My Wife Doesn’t
I spent 2 minutes with my fingers on the keyboard trying to come up with a catchy title for this blog post; I couldn't. While the title lacks pizzazz, it's accurate and to-the-point.
