There's no doubt that 3am is ridiculously early. Scott Steele is crazy (or stupid – depending on how you look at it) enough to have been getting up at that hour every weekday for the past 13 years. Since coming over to co-host the morning show on KHAK in 2007, Steele has learned a lot about what the country music lifestyle is all about. His favorite part of working for KHAK is without a doubt the listeners. When Steele isn't working on the show, chances are you'll find him in the company of his wife Misty and their bulldog Chilli. Steele loves his Illinois sports teams including the Chicago Bears, White Sox, and the Illinois Fighting Illini (which is admittedly tough being in the middle of Hawkeye country.) He also loves to cook and play Texas Hold 'Em. His favorite “non-Iowa” places to be include Las Vegas and the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. Steele is also a cancer survivor and says he continues to be blown away by the support, prayers, and thoughts he receives. You can follow his journal at www.caringbridge.org/visit/scottwillwin

Am I On COPS??
It was Friday and I left work much like any other day. As I was driving home I heard sirens and saw a few lights behind me in downtown Cedar Rapids. I was stopped at a stop sign when two CRPD squad cars came flying down the street past me. I...

How’s THIS For A Prom Date?
Think back to your Senior Prom. Do you remember who your date was? Do remember the excitement of the night. Something tells me both Austin Dennison, a senior at Parkway High School in Ohio and his prom date won't forget the night....
Vinyl Makes A Comeback
The first album I ever bought was "Destroyer" from the band KISS. I was 7 at the time and I remember coming home from K-Mart where I had spent my hard earned allowance on the record. I still have that vinyl album, along with a slew of others...
It’s Not A Competition…Or Is It?
Yes I am competitive. When it comes to work projects, board games, driving, even keeping up on current events - I like to be first or if not first, I want to be the best. (This undoubtedly drives my wife nuts.) One other thing I am competitive about is doing outdoor work around the house - mainly mowing and snow blowing...
Feeling Flushed? Indoor Plumbing Survey
Something a lot of us take for granted...I am sure. Indoor plumbiing. Think back to this past winter, one of those days when it was -40 windchill and what if you had to go OUTSIDE to get water, or even worse, do "your business."
Check out this interactive map HERE and find out where in Iowa and the United States don't have indoor plumbing...
She Wants His Guns GONE – Counseling Corner
Brain and Steele,
When my husband and I first started dating, he told me he was a “gun enthusiast” (his words). Having never even held a gun, I knew nothing about them – but I wasn't opposed to them. Fast forward ten years to today and my husband now has somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 handguns and 10 or so rifles and more bullets than he could ever need...

Hawkeye Football Shut Out Of Primetime
First it was the ESPN/ABC primetime college football schedule that was unveiled. That schedule didn't include any Iowa Hawkeye games. But there was still the Big Ten Network and today they announced their primetime schedule. And guess what...no Hawkeyes!
How Is The New Drug Working In Cancer Fight?
I went to see my oncologist yesterday. I'll admit, I was a little uneasy as I have been taking a new kind of chemo drug and you always worry "is it working?"
