Why We Are Talking
Gary Sadlemyer and the KFAB Good Morning Show are proud and privileged to be a part of your morning routine. From 5:30 to 9 a.m., you're sure to find a steady stream of newsmaking guests, hot topics, and upbeat humor -- combined with up-to-the-minute news, weather, and traffic updates.
For years, Gary has helmed the show that has truly made 1110 KFAB The Voice of Nebraska. We hope you check this page often, as we'll use the right-hand-side over there to provide updates on segments from the show, info on many of our guests, poll questions, and other interesting tidbits that are better viewed than listened-to.
Meet the KFAB Good Morning Show team
Gary Sadlemyer
A Nebraska radio legend, Gary has spent the past 30 years at KFAB. He hosted the first live talk show in the history of this station, and his work on the Nebraska Cornhusker football broadcasts on the 52-station Nebraska Sports Network from 1981 to 1995 has made his name and voice familiar to Husker fans across the country. He also serves as Program Director of this 50,000-watt powerhouse of a superstation.
A Minnesota native, Gary is married to the former Rose Ann Graham and is the father of four (grandfather to one). According to Jim Rose, Gary and his family live somewhere near Scottsbluff (no, not really -- but they are in West Omaha).
Jim Rose
Jim Rose became a familiar voice to Husker fans, as the play-by-play voice of the Nebraska Cornhuskers football and baseball teams. It's this unique insight that make his sports reports during the KFAB Good Morning Show so popular. You're guaranteed to hear the latest facts and stats on Husker athletics from "Rosie," as well as well-read perspectives on the day's top sports stories.
Jim has won numerous awards ranging from Nebraska Sportscaster of the Year (1999, 2002 and 2007), to multiple Associated Press commendations, and even a nomination for the George Foster Peabody Medal, which is among the broadcasting industry's highest honors. He's proud to serve as a member of the Board of Directors for the University of Nebraska Alumni Association.
He is married to the former Jana Jarratt of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. They are proud parents of two and reside in Omaha.
Roger Olson
The most important cog of any good radio show is a great producer. Roger coordinates each guest you hear on the KFAB Good Morning Show, and contributes valuable opinions along the way. A solid talk show host in his own right, you can often catch Roger guest-hosting shows all over the KFAB lineup. Many Omaha listeners remember him as part of the hugely popular "TJ and Rog" morning show on KXKT throughout the 1990s.
Roger is a 1985 graduate of the University of Nebraska at Omaha with a degree in Business Administration. His career outside of radio includes jobs in the banking industry, as well as an account service representative, loan underwriter, and a loan officer.
Lucy Chapman
Lucy Chapman is a seasoned on-air professional, announcer, and voice talent who has been the featured voice in commercials for several Fortune 500 companies. She slums with the KFAB Good Morning Show each day to tell motorists how best to navigate the metro area's streets. You also hear her quick wit throwing barbs at Gary and the team (often in retaliation).
Scott Voorhees
As a prelude to the "Pack of Lies" from 9-11 a.m. (as Jim Rose calls Scott's show), Scott is honored to join the KFAB Good Morning Show team, if only to make occasional wisecracks. Given the opportunity, though, Scott has managed to make a few real points along the way, too. Scott's story continues at http://www.kfab.com/pages/voorhees.html.
***The OFFICIAL Good Morning Show Definition of Political Correctness***
"Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstreammedia, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
In Lubbock, Texas, KAMC-TV news anchor Emily Leonard (who looks a lot like Chelsea Clinton) was told to introduce a sports update (about the Husker-Texas Tech game) , but was surprised to find Matt Laubhan, a weatherman for rival station KLBK, sitting at the sports desk. Laubhan is Leonard's boyfriend, and he introduced "some breaking news" by dropping to one knee and asking Leonard to marry him live on the air. She cried and yelled, "Yes," over and over, as Laubhan got her to admit she had no clue it was coming.
