I was born in the southern U.S. and raised by a 21 year Marine Corps Vietnam Vet and his hard working, successful, Tennessee born bride. They set the bar pretty high for their three kids...so I decided to just walk under it and go into radio at age 16. After years of "town to town, up and down the dial", I made my way to Billings in 2005. That turned out to be the best decision I ever made. It lead to a great job, and the love of my life, my daughter, Eliana. I'm happy to be raising her in a place with a great mix of conservative family values and progressive ideas about inclusion and embracing the differences in people (provided they are not too liberal or from California).

What Do You Do When You See This Purple Paint In Montana?
Several states have a "Purple Paint Law" which allows property owners to mark their property and post it as "No trespassing" using purple paint. Why purple paint? For one, people often steal, destroy, or remove No Trespassing signs. For another, purple is a color that is visible, but not often used to mark anything outdoors, like utilities or surveys for instance...
Two New Free TV Stations In Billings
Lots of people are "cutting the cable" these days and relying on streaming services for their shows and local channels for their news and live TV.
