Since 1994 you have come to know me as the Crazy Guy with the Dorsey Gang morning show. Yes, I am the guy that will do just about anything. I’ve been tazered, pepper sprayed, attacked by police dogs, ridden in a clothes dryer, and buried alive. I’ve always said, “Life is not a spectator sport. You have to participate to fully appreciate all the finer things in life”.
To tell you just a little bit about myself. I was born in Olney, Illinois but I grew up in Columbus, Ohio where I graduated from Ohio State University. After a short stint as a media production teacher in Holland, Michigan, I spent 10 years working as a wrangler at the “Double JJ Dude Ranch” in Western Michigan. It was there that I was discovered by 97 WLAV FM in Grand Rapids and got my first job in radio hosting my own morning show.
I still have a love for horses and also enjoy going to the movies. However, I most enjoy spending time with my family. This year I will be celebrating my 20th Wedding Anniversary with my lovely wife Sheri. She has always said that I’m her third child and that she is not saving up for college for our other two kids but for “Therapy”. Those of you that are long time listeners to 96.3 KSCS remember when my kids were born. My son, Dalton, who we used to call “Mini-Van” is not so “Mini” anymore. He is now 10 years old and has already decided to go to UT. My daughter, Lyndle, who we used to call “Custom-Van” is still my little princess. She is now 8 years old, loves horses like her daddy, and has already decided that school is not for her and plans to run away with the circus.
I attribute my success to my great Christian Parents. It’s their faith and unwavering beliefs that laid down the foundation for everything that I Love and hold on to dearly today. I devote much of my community service endeavors to my Church, Special Olympics and the Leukemia Society.
I love doing personal appearances ranging from live broadcasts, club appearances, movie screenings, and charity events. Whenever I am out come on by and say hi! I’d like to consider you more as a friend than just a listener.
As Always… Thanks For Listening!
