I grew up on a small farm near Leota, Minnesota in the Southwest part of Minnesota. I began my radio career at KWYR in Winner, then on to KKAA in Aberdeen, KV91 in Volga/Brookings, a variety of stations in Rapid City, and for the last more than a few years in Sioux Falls. Join me weekdays from 2-6 PM for our three-hour afternoon energy drink 'The McDaniel Mess'. And on Saturdays 12-6 PM for Double Barrell Saturdays. Prizes, fun, and of course the greatest country music ever recorded! I have two kids and five Grandchildren. And yes, they all still like me fine.
