Duane Barnhart

Duane first caught the "radio" bug listening to the legendary Les Sterling broadcast Columbia Falls high school sports. His father & mom, Ray & Irene and then brother & sister in law, Don & Barb (Schrock), have managed & operated successful local businesses for decades, with ALL involved in civic projects & local government. Upon graduation from Columbia Falls H.S. & earning a bachelor of arts in Film & TV at Montana State, (GO CATS!), Duane was immediately hired & worked for 8 years with KBOZ stations in Bozeman.  After marrying in 1990, he moved with his new bride, Robin Allen, to Spokane & began a very successful career as an air personality & programmer at 2 radio companies before signing on in DEC., 2005 as midday personality here at KOOL 105.  Robin is a highly respected educator & administrator, and the kids (MICHAEL & MOLLY ANN) are college graduates that still enjoy time with mom & dad.
