The Redbone Show 2.0 w/Mike Crase 6a-12p Weekdays and E-Comm Sports
I caught the “radio bug” early in life, growing up in the St. Louis Metro area, listening to Harry Caray and Jack Buck call St. Louis Cardinal Baseball, which carried over to music in my teens, listening to KSHE, WIL, and KSLQ. I enrolled in the radio class at Cahokia High School and learned a lot from a great radio teacher by the name of Bill Bailey and spent some time “on-air” and calling Comanche sports on WRTE, our high school station. Then it was on to college and WLCA radio at Lewis & Clark CC in Godfrey, Illinois. In the early 1980s, I moved to Thayer, Mo, and started my professional career, right here at KALM/KAMS doing part-time and weekends, which eventually became a full-time gig. And here we are 38 years later and still going strong, doing the Redbone Show 2.0 daily from 10am-12pm on K-Kountry 95, Thayer Bobcat, and Alton Comet sports. I love doing remote broadcasts across the beautiful Ozarks. Sorry ladies, I am married, to Ms. Nina for 38 (or is it 39?) years and we have 3 wonderful children, Michael, Jessica, and Adam, and 2 granddaughters, who are the lights of my life. Of course assorted dogs, cats, horses, pigs, etc…
I love to cook on my grill, gardening is a passion and I just enjoy plain ole country living!!
For fun…I work!! It’s great to have a job you love. You’ll also find me in the deer woods come fall, and co-hosting the American Roots Outdoors radio show with Alex Rutledge, which can be heard on 7 stations across Southern Missouri and Northern Arkansas.
Follow me on Facebook…I’m on all the time!!

I was raised in Mammoth Spring, Ark. I had a love for radio from a young age. Out of high school, I was allowed to work at KALM/KAMS. I worked for about 7 years then took time off to raise my family. I have 2 daughters, one son, a daughter n law, a son n law, and 2 precious grandsons. I’ve been married to my husband for 31 years. I enjoy motivational books, binge-watching tv shows, and time with my family. I have a deep love for animals.
Mason Wade (Wade’s Way) 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday – Friday and E-Comm News and Sports
Born and raised in Thayer, Mo. I graduated from Thayer High School, and went straight into work out of school. Many people will remember me as the big red head at Hirsch Feed and Farm Supply in Thayer. I’ve worked in many different agricultural fields, all the way from chicken houses to multiple different livestock sale barns and loved them all, till I found the radio bug. Here at E-Communication I work in the news department and I get to be your afternoon host on K-Kountry 95 where we do it Wade’s Way. In life outside of work I live here in Thayer, with my girlfriend Aidden, and our two dogs Frog and Grady, plus two cats Chumlee and Sneaky. Other than that I drive an old Cadillac and love my life here in the Ozarks!!!

I’ve been in Radio for over 25 years, I’ve played everything from Classic Country to Classic Rock and Bob has put up with me for all 25 years (poor guy).
Best thing about my job, I’ve met a lot of AWESOME people.
I’ve been blessed to work with some of the best DJ’S in this area, and learned from each one. Including the one who believed in me and gave me a chance to do what I love, Chuck Boone… Rest In Peace, friend.
