I was so honored to be a part of this, circa 2010. Merry Christmas to you and your family from our family here at NewsRadio 1110 KFAB. By the way, if you're looking for our Christmas show with Gary Sadlemyer, Jim Rose, Ian Swanson and me, that (and a bunch of other fun stuff) is all posted on the "Nebraska's Morning News" podcast link at KFAB.com. Anything we do before 9am goes there; the alleged highlights after 9am go here.
Merry Christmas from all of us at NewsRadio 1110 KFAB!

I spent the weekend watching college football and Netflix. Thankfully, those are two of the biggest topics in the news today.
