Growing up, Connor had two passions: Radio and airplanes. In high school, he solo'd in a Cessna 150 at Civil Air Patrol's Powered Flight Encampment. While in Navy ROTC at the University of Washington, Connor vision was tested at 20/30. This blocked him from qualifying as a Naval Aviator. Dreams of landing on an aircraft carrier done, he dove head first into radio. In a span of nearly 35 years, he has entertained radio audiences in Seattle, Spokane, Long Island, New York CIty & Cleveland. Connor has now proudly called Wenatchee home for the past 15 years!

What’s your all-time favorite bread?
Why am I asking this question? Because today, November 17th is National Homemade Bread Day.
I’ve only had homemade bread a handful of times in my life. Stephanie, my wife’s longtime BFF used to make us bread, baked in her kitchen. We’d get t...
What are the Wenatchee Valleys bumpiest roads?
A few years ago, my bike commute included riding on Wenatchee’s King Street, not far from Columbia Elementary. At the time, King Street was the most bumpy, pot-holed road in town.
I talked about it on the morning show. Oddly, after calling out King Street being a hell hole of a road: The City improved the road!
There...

My recently planned 8 day trip to Paris, France - with months upon months of planning, mainly done by my wife Michelle: Sadly didn't happen.
