Along with being a dedicated Oregonian and dog guy, and the happily married daddy of two young adults and one daughter in law, I'm a third generation radio person--my dad started up the Grinnell College radio station in Iowa and his dad played a hot piano in the Chicago radio drama days in the 30's. I was raised in suburban Chicago and Denver, but I chose Portland as my forever home right out of the University of Colorado (never mind the youthful detours to Seattle, San Francisco, and Houston). I still have a pebble I collected from the beach when I first laid eyes on the north Oregon coast.
As of December 1, 2011, K103 has been my radio home for 26 years. I cherish each day working with my friend Bruce Murdock, just as I relished the years I spent in collaboration with Craig Walker. I miss Dana Jeffries, but I really enjoy working with Janine Wolf! She's totally on top of traffic, and dishes up the funniest zingers!

Secrets to getting your Stump the Jock question used!
-
- It has to be interesting. The sort of thing you'd tell somebody at work, "Guess what I heard on the radio!"
- It needs to be factual. I always appreciate it when questions are sent with a link to the source.
- It should be short and to the point.
- Please don't forward lists of trivia that are bouncing around the Internet or on e-mail...we've seen them all.
- Most of all...they need to be fun!

Listening To K103 On The Banfield....
When you're on the radio, you're talking to one person at a time...not to the thousands and thousands of people who are tuned in, in total. That's what I've always believed, telling listeners that I envision somebody driving along on the Banfield, and just talk to that one person. But until our listener Matt sent in this video, it's always just been a theory. Check it out!

You've Got To Be Kidding! Huggies Is Selling WHAT?
Not in the US--yet--but in Brazil, they're selling TweetPee, a plastic device that tells you when your baby is wet. This commercial's in Portugese, but you can definitely catch the drift!
