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

What Do Iowans Google Most?
Hoof and Mouth. David Hasselhoff. Frito Pie. Bail Money. What do all of those things have in common?
Bigger Shows Bigger Bucks
Working in radio, I hear this A LOT - "there are NEVER any good shows in town. They should bring (insert mega artist) here." It's amazing how fired up people get when concerts come to town. For some, it's a chance to see their favorite act...
Not About The $$$ – Counseling Corner
Dear Brain and Steele,
I've never heard a problem like this on your counseling corner before, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
Relaxing….Squirrel Style
We all know what a brutal winter it was. But for the majority of us, we had safe, cozy, warm houses we could retreat to and stay out of the elements.
Don’t Rush Me!
Until your microwave craps out on you, you won't really realize how much you rely on it. I can say this, because our microwave bit the dust about 2 weeks ago. Do we have a new one yet? Nope. And I take TOTAL blame for that. I have a problem sometimes with buying things quickly...
Murder Plot Foiled?
So...I am pretty sure someone tried to kill me yesterday.
Raising Kids In Cedar Rapids
If you have kids and you live in Cedar Rapids...is that a good thing?
$40,000 Found…$40,000 Returned
It's the age old question - "If you found a large pile of money...what would you do with it?"
Against All Morels
It's hunting season and I couldn't be more disgusted.
You Asked For It – We Deliver!
Every Thursday around 7:50am we read a letter from a listener who is asking for our/your help with a situation or problem. About twice a year we catch you up with some of those letter-writers with a "Counseling Corner - Update Show."
We're doing that this morning and will return with all new letters and situations where your help is need beginning next week...
