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! |
