Mornings with Mike McKay
Mike is BACK on the air every morning all across Eau Claire and the Chippewa Valley on 105-7 CFW! With over 28+ years in the Chippewa Valley, this has become home for Mike and his wife Lori. His kids grew up here and they still live here as well. When he's not on the air waking up the Valley, Mike spends time working around the house and yard as well as relaxing on the deck, usually more time relaxing than working! Weekends mean exploring the area and even after all these years, both he and his wife Lori still find things they've never seen before. Mike enjoys a little bit of online poker and spending quality time with his Pomeranian GiGi and kitty "Violet". Oh, and hockey is the only sport that matters in his house, "GO WILD"!

It was 42 years ago today!
It started at a brand new (little) radio station in Knob Noster, Missouri. That’s where my radio career started. Lori and I got married on May 28th and a couple short weeks later we loaded a u-haul truck and left St Paul Minnesota for my new career. So, where is Knob Noster? It’s about an […]

Pour me a cold one!
It’s National Root Beer day! There’s so many different types to choose from, but where did it actually come from?
