Growing up in the far off nether-regions of Dodge Center, MN, Lew has had an on-again/off again affair with KROC since joining the the airstaff in 1998. In his "off" times, he dabbled with gigs in retail, banking, shipping and rental cars-mostly sucking at all of them. Since returning in October, Lew attempts to make your drive from school and work slightly less painful, live, weekdays from 2-7. Besides playing music on-air, you can find Lew at a few Rochester bars, playing your requests and giving away whatever said bars don't have nailed down. If he's not finding an excuse to leave the state for warmer locals like Vegas and Miami, he also "marks out" to professional wrestling, attending live events and hosting a weekly wrestling podcast with KROC "Sunday Funday" guy, Ace.

Scared/Excited First-Time Dad!
Hey, it's Lew, and for most of my life people have constantly asked me when I'm gonna "grow up." I usually respond to that rolling my eyes and flicking a booger at 'em, but about a month ago I got a new reason to at least start "acting" more mature...
