Mike in the Midday

 

 

 

 

 

Who is Mike…

Let’s see….I was born in a manger in Rock County, WI back when Dwight Eisenhower was president. It was dark. On our family farm we raised various crops and occasional livestock. I began driving tractors at the age of five. Hit my first tree at the age of …uh five. Our best crop was rocks. We always picked ‘em in the spring. Those buggers kept coming back. And we were always fencing. Had to make sure that corn we planted didn’t uproot itself and run away.

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.

Mike has been twice named Best Radio Show by the Wisconsin Broadcasters Association.
