Hey, Iowa! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my profile. I was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, where I spent all of my life (except for the two years I was overseas in the military). In June of 2017, I moved to the Corridor, and immediately fell in love with the area. I am honored to host your drive home Monday-Friday with the Afternoon Workforce and the "First Hangover Of The Week" on Saturday mornings. Other than rocking on KRNA, I also enjoy being a musician, singer, actor, and a really good cook.

Tom E. Gunn’s ‘Just Say No’ Picture

Cooking Video Will Make Iowans Angry
I've found that Iowans' number one way to serve a spud is in the form of mashed potatoes. Mash just goes with everything, and it's one of my favorite things to prepare and eat.
