Hi, I’m Brent Ackerman, the Operations Manager and Midday host for Minnesota 97.5!

With over 35 years of radio experience under my belt, I’m glad to be on the air playing Rochester’s Greatest Hits from the 70s, 80s and 90s on Minnesota 97.5.

As a Rochester native, it’s been great to grow up in one of America’s best cities and to raise my family here as well. I’m a proud dad of three adult kids and four grandchildren. My wife Laurie and I are also very involved in our community. In my spare time, I enjoy golfing, bowling, grilling and following my favorite Minnesota sports teams (still waiting on that first Vikings’ Super Bowl trophy).

Join Brent Ackerman on MN 97.5 for Out To Lunch, weekdays in the noon hour, sponsored by Rooster’s & Rooster’s Too!  Each day features a different contest: Monday Movie Trivia…TV Tunes Tuesday…Brent’s Brain Buster Trivia (Wed)…Throwback Thursday…Brent’s Bad Dad Jokes (Fri).  Listen for your chance to win a certificate to Rooster’s!
