Mike McLean
| Born and raised in the Foothills, Mike co-hosts the morning show and is Agriculture Director at AM 1140. A fifth generation Alberta rancher, Mike still does a little on the side and is involved with 4-H and volunteers at the Bar U National Historic Site. A strong proponent of rural Southern Alberta, he features local music Saturdays on “Made in Alberta” and whenever he can in the regular AM 1140 play list. He wonders what he did to deserve his morning co-host and promises to behave in the future! |
Russell Skeet | Russell Skeet has worked in radio and TV for over two decades, and has spent the better part of those years in the High River region. Russ co-hosts the Morning Show on AM 1140 along with the morning news and sports on AM 1140. He also broadcasts the sports on The Eagle 100.9, which is a perfect fit as Russ is a typical guy and is happiest when either watching or participating in sporting events. Russ owns his own video production company called "Medicine Tree Productions" which has produced outdoor programming for OLN and The Sportsman’s Channel in the United States. He’s currently producing a fishing show called “The Weekend Angler.” Russ also writes a semi-regular sports/fishing column for the High River Times. |
