Born and raised in Hannibal, Missouri...I stopped maturing at age 12 and I have the radio show to prove it. Authorities found me at age 19 in a corner talking to myself...so they decided to give me a pair of headphones, a microphone and a brand new room (with padded walls) for me to talk to myself in...and they called it radio...and that brings us to today. I have been torturing (I mean "entertaining") listeners for 29 years and have been fortunate to win many Missouri Broadcaster awards along the way...which just proves how much everyone else sucks. Truth is I have the best radio listeners in the world who treat me better than any human being could possibly deserve. And that special relationship we have will continue...at least until K-Mart starts hiring again.

It’s Hard To Afford Christmas
I am one of the few people that actually looks forward to January. Yep. Nothing I like more than a month where you have snow, freezing rain and virtually no interesting sports on TV. (Feel the sarcasm) Truth is I really am looking forward to January. Not so much for what January has to offer, but more because it means the holidays will be over and I can begin to recover financially.
Cyber Monday Scares Me
It's Cyber Monday, the day where people try to score great deals on billions of things they find on sale on the Internet. Or, so they would have you think. As for me, I think this is just one of the tricks the machines are trying to play on us before they become self-aware. Am I the only person that has seen the Terminator movies?
Luke Bryan in Hannibal on Black Friday?
The KICK-FM Facebook page was ablaze today with rumors that Luke Bryan was seen in the Hannibal Walmart shopping with his son. Could it be? Luke's website doesn't show him busy with any tour activities until January 17. So, is he using his down time looking for bargains in America's Hometown?
There Is A Reason Why This Day Has Become Known As Black Friday
Are you one of the brave and/or desperate souls that is out shopping today? If so, first of all, I will pray for you. Also, feel free to peruse our Black Friday deals page with some of the bigger sales happening around the area. As for me, I plan to curl up in the corner in the fetal position until this day is over.

I Am Thankful For You
This is probably more than you want to know, but one of my favorite Thanksgiving traditions growing up was dressing up the family dogs as Indians and the cats as Pilgrims and then seeing what happened. Good times.
Happy Anniversary, Baby
Happy Anniversary, Baby. See how weird that sounded? If someone cooler than me (which means pretty much anyone) said that, then that might sound suave. Not coming from me. True, it is our anniversary. Nine years to be exact. And, this woman is one of the reasons I am one of the most blessed guys on this Earth.
