I grew up on a small farm near Leota, Minnesota in the Southwest part of Minnesota. I began my radio career at KWYR in Winner, then on to KKAA in Aberdeen, KV91 in Volga/Brookings, a variety of stations in Rapid City and for the last more than a few years in Sioux Falls. I reached the top of the radio food chain that is KXRB in 2007 and haven't been kicked off yet! Join me weekdays from 3-6PM for our three hour afternoon energy drink 'The McDaniel Mess'. Prizes, fun and of course the greatest country music ever recorded! I have 2 kids and 5 Grandchildren. And yes, they all still like me fine.

Not All That Different: Planting Time On The Farm And In Town
Farm folk and town folk. They're as different as night and day, right?
Nope. And especially not when it comes to planting season.
Oh, I know I know, farmers will have acres and acres and more acres. Their town counterparts will have feet and feet and feet...

Commercial Catchphrase Memory Lane: ‘Where’s The Beef’?
Song's can get stuck in your head. You know the ones. You hear that song, you like that song, and then the next thing you know you're out mowing the lawn, or maybe making dinner, or possibly in the shower early in the morning and you find yourself singing that song...
I Don’t Get The Fascination With Harry And Meghan’s Wedding
It was almost 250 years ago when it happened. We said to the British 'OK, enough, we don't want to have anything more to do with you. We're leaving, see ya later alligator.' Then, there was a little skirmish about it called the Revolutionary War and that was that...

I'm a small town kid. Or at least, I was. And having lived in South Dakota for, well, some decades now, I think it's the small towns that make South Dakota the greatest state in the good 'ol U.S. of A.
And one of those great communities, those places with a population under a grand, is…

Twenty Years Ago We Learned A New Phrase: Google It!
It died a slow death beginning in 1998 I guess.
So long Encyclopedia. Bye bye dictionary. See ya later road map. Farewell any book, sheet, magazine or pamphlet that you used to get information.

Gen X Memory Lane: You Had To Read ‘Flowers In The Attic’
Every generation has a favorite 'thing' I suppose. Whether it be a movie, TV show, toy, car, song...you name it, if you're of a certain generation, you all shared that favorite 'thing'.

Traffic Deaths Down 50% Thanks To An Ingenious Invention
The automobile.
One of the greatest inventions of the twentieth century (or any century). In the blink of an eye (well, that might be an exaggeration) the world became more mobile than at any prior time. We could hop in the car (or maybe the horseless carriage) and off we'd go down the road, and…
