Keith Cech

6am-10am

Hey, I’m Keith Cech Program Director and Morning Show Host on KUOO Campus Radio and Midday Host on Q102. I grew up on a farm outside of Howells, Nebraska (a small town around three hours southwest of the Iowa Great Lakes). I started my career in radio in Norfolk, Nebraska in early 2011. From there, I spent time in Monroe, Wisconsin and
Cloquet, Minnesota. My wife (Jessica), daughter (Ridley) and I moved to the area in March of 2022 which is when my time with KUOO and our family of stations began! (UPDATE: we welcomed another daughter, Parker, to the family in November of 2025!) When I’m not in the studio, I enjoy golfing, spending time with family and…cheering on the Dallas Cowboys and Nebraska Cornhuskers (been a rough couple decades). And of course, I love music! Garth Brooks, Bob Seger, Breaking Benjamin, Metallica, Taylor Swift, 3 Doors Down, Olivia Rodrigo, Linkin Park, Rush, Aerosmith, Billie Eilish, Sum 41, George Strait, Bruno Mars, Reba McEntire, Bowling for Soup, Elton John, Joe Diffie, Avril Lavigne, Styx, Billy Joel, The Backstreet Boys…I LOVE IT ALL! Thanks for listening!

Steve Schwaller

6am-10pm
Morning Show Host & News Director

I am the News and Weather Director for KUOO & KUQQ a position I have held ever since I started working here in 1996. Prior to that, I worked as an announcer and News Director at KKOJ in Jackson, Minnesota, where I started my career full time in 1983 after graduating from the broadcasting program at Brown Institute in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Sadly, the school no longer exists. I’m a graduate of Spirit lake High School and have lived in the Iowa Great lakes my entire life, other than when I was going to broadcasting school. In my spare time I enjoy bowling and I’m a huge railroad enthusiast.

Makayla or "Mak" Secrist

10am-2pm

I’m a mom of two trying to take this crazy world one day at a time. I’ve been here with Community First Broadcasting for several years now, but still feel like the new kid sometimes. Love the people I work with and all the shenanigans we get up to. I’m a huge nerd and OFTEN laugh at my own jokes even if no one else does. Genuinely enjoy being here and learning from the more experienced DJs I’m surrounded by. Still a little stunned they let me talk on the radio at all.

Claire Booth

2pm-6pm

Hi I’m Claire, and I am your afternoon host on KUOO! I am new to the Spirit Lake/Okoboji area. I grew up in Iowa and am from the Cedar Rapids area. As much as I love it here, I left to go to South Dakota State University for my B.S in Journalism and minors in Theater and Dance (Go Jacks!). Radio was something that I got into while I was in school, and I also really love to talk, so it was a perfect it! Storytelling is something that I’m passionate about and I love to meet people! I have always loved music, it’s one of my inspirations in life! I like everything, from the 70’s to classic rock, like Rolling Stones and Aerosmith, 2000s’ pop to rock, Kesha, Gwen Stefani, to My Chemical Romance and Pierce the Veil, to todays hits! I am also deep into the Kpop world. When I’m not in the studio, you can find me painting or drawing or even playing Dungeons and Dragons with my friends! You can also find me assistant teaching dance at Dancers Unlimited! I’m so excited to be with Community First Broadcasting! I love learning from the people around me!
