I've had the great fortune of working in Acadiana my entire radio career. And that's a good thing since I speak the language! I'm married to the lovely Ms. Alli and together we have an amazingly cool son named Hayden and an amazingly bad dog named Kyreaux. In my spare time I enjoy playing the spoons, eating things that were "swimming in the waters this morning", guffawing and calf-roping with George Strait.
