I barely remember the 70s. Must have been fun, I hope. Have worked in radio since 1979. I’ve been married to Theresa since 1981 and have two great sons, Max and Colin. In fact they turned out a lot better than me. I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. I live in a state of insanity, confusion and all-around hallucination.

About Me:
I’m still pretty new to radio by comparison. I started off my radio career at Cow97 in January of 2008 doing middays on the weekend, and filling in where ever else needed. In June of 2008 I left Cow97 and moved to southwest Iowa. While in Iowa I worked some odd jobs and worked part time at KJAN in Atlantic, Iowa for about a year. Now I’ve been back at Cow97 since February 2012 and am so glad to be back home in Cow Country.
I grew up on a family farm north of a map dot called Stanton, Iowa. I honestly believe I was 8 or 9 before I realized most people bought milk at the grocery store, and didn’t get their meat from a private drawer in the cooler of the local meat locker. I came to the area in 2003 via Fort McCoy on my way to Operation Iraqi Freedom. Upon my return to the States in 2004 I rented a cabin at Pine View Campground for a week's vacation. I ended up staying for 4 years and met my wonderful wife. In 2008 she had a great job opportunity present itself in Iowa so we headed south. In early 2012 we decided we missed Wisconsin and came back to the area.
I love music in general, but nothing speaks to me quite like country music. There is something about songs that seem like they were written about me and my life and no other genre does that like country. When I was younger I listened to a lot of “Hair Bands” then in the early 90’s a friend told me about this country song and had me listen to it. The song was Against The Grain by a still relatively new artist from Oklahoma by the Name of Garth Brooks. I was hooked.
Favorite Place to Hangout when not working:
Well it either has to be at home with my wife and dogs, or a karaoke bar.
Dirty Little Secret:
I Love Katy Perry’s Music
Favorite Sports Team:
I’m not much of a stick and ball sports guy but I do like watching the Packers. My sport is NASCAR and I’m a fan of the number 88 Hendricks Motorsports Chevrolet driven by Dale Earnhardt JR.
Favorite Charity:
Local animal Shelters
What Did you Want to Be as a Kid?:
I wanted to be a Naval Aviator.
What superhero would you want to be and why?:
Batman, because he has the coolest toys. Incidentally he is the only superhero without superpowers.
If you could meet anyone living or dead who would it be?:
The Intimidator Dale Earnhardt just because he seemed like a regular working class guy.
What is your Weirdest quirk?:
I love repelling and climbing terrain features, but I’m scared of heights.
What is the wallpaper on your cell phone?:
A 3-masted wooden ship under ominous skies
What are three things I can’t live with out?:
My Wife
My Dogs
Music.

Thanks for listening, and as a prominent Sunday Morning news anchor would say, "I'll see you on the radio"!
ANDY THURSTEN--WEEKENDS
Hey there...I am Andy Thursten. I bring you country music on the weekends. I am a fully bred Wisconsin boy that does not bleed the Green and Gold, or the Badger Red. I am sorry, but I do love the Milwaukee Brewers, so 1 out of 3 is not too bad.
As far as the music goes I love it all. Pop, classic rock, and of course country. If I had to pick my favorite artists it would have to go Jimmy Buffet, Zac Brown, Brad Paisley, and then Keith Urban.

About Sara....I was born in southern Wisconsin a few years back. Lived on a farm for a while as a child then moved up north here to La Crosse. After living there for a while the fam picked up and moved around quite a bit. Had the opportunity to see a lot of the beautiful country we call home. Ended up in Sparta as a teenager and have been here ever since. I am a proud mom of two wonderful(by wonderful I mean masters of driving one insane) boys that keep me quite busy most of the time. They definitely keep me on my toes, that's for sure.
