Scotty VanDryver – Weekdays 3:00pm-8:00pm

I’ve pretty much grown up at KAFE 104.1!  I started in 1998, almost straight out of high school, doing anything I could to be a part of the fun.  I stacked CDs, swept floors, picked up lunch, and drove the van, of course.

After about a year, someone got the bright idea of putting me behind the mixing board and a mic and the rest is history.  I came in bright and early Sunday mornings (where the boss figured I would do the least amount of damage).  From there, I rotated through various shows until settling into afternoons several years ago.  I promise that I’ll bring great music while we talk about our lives on your way home.

At home, I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2002.  Actually, I figured I had overreached my limit, so I hung on for dear life.  My wife, Jenny, and I have two daughters, Kaitlyn and Cora.  I used to always roll my eyes at the parents that would talk about their kids non-stop…until I became a dad.  I figure, why not take advantage of all of the material they give me. 🙂

Stop and say, “Hi,” whenever you see me around.  If you need a subject to break the ice, just start talking about professional wrestling.  I’ve loved it since I was a kid…and never stopped.

Robert De Niro delivers Lincoln’s civility warning at a Carnegie Hall benefit

Robert De Niro walked onto Carnegie Hall's stage Tuesday night, unannounced and to loud applause. He didn't make any speeches, at least none of his own.
