About Moose
"Moose grew up a product of the US Navy military and dependent system. A Navy brat, to Iowa parents, since birth and officially til about 1993, he was raised in a loving and screwball family. With stops in Guam, Phillipines, California, Washington DC, Maryland and Puerto Rico he is as cultured as he is non-bilingual. An irony that isn't lost on him. You'd think he would have picked up SOME sort of language...at least Southeast DC crack-speak!
Anyway...
Moose’s radio path lead him through an Oldies station in DC, nights in Maryland and then afternoons in Vermont at Classic Rock 101. After a stint as program director there, he came to LAZER in 2003 as the afternoon guy.
Early 2007 he was asked if he was interested in filling the morning vacancy that had opened up at Lazer upon which he said "You've reached Moose, leave a message" because he wasn't up yet. When he finally woke up at 10am he called back and said, with an enthusiastic voice, "uh, okay".
Now, with 3.5 gallons of coffee running through his veins and a smelly B-Sox by his side, he hosts the Morning Moose show, syndicated in 1 market and with just as many listeners."
About B-Sox
B-Sox was homegrown right here in Polk City, Iowa. Sox started at LAZER in 2003 as an intern…doing all the dirty work, and now has worked his way up to be on the Morning Show, having Moose make fun of him, and doing all the dirty work.
B-Sox is an Iowa Hawkeyes fanatic, and supports them through the good times and the bad. His hobbies include reading, road trips, going to hole in the wall bars, and living in his parent’s basement.
His biggest accomplishment includes being a part of the North Polk 1998 2A State Championship Jazz Band….it’s OK, we laughed when he told us too. He also has a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, so don’t mess with him!

"A Sense of Purpose"
MOOSE:I'm not a huge metal guy but I love metal that has melody, aggression with a touch of sensitivity. Metal that sounds like life, as corny as that sounds.
Shinedown - Sounds of Maddness
BSOX: It's an awesome CD. Sounds of Maddness is great song along with, Second Chances, and Call Me is one of the best songs I've ever heard.

Dirty Joke of the Week
Stop by every week for a new joke!
This week's joke:A little girl goes with her father to get her first haircut. He takes her to a barber shop, sits her in the chair, and the barber puts on the smock, while she's eating a Fig Newton. The guy starts cutting her hair, and suddenly she drops the cookie. He picks it up and gives it back to her, and she starts crying hysterically.
He says, "What's the matter, honey, you have hair on your cookie?"
She says, "What are you out of your f*****g mind....I'm only six!"
