 Eric's Profile


Eric Cornish
Afternoons 3:00pm-7:00pm

Eric was born and raised in Louisville, KY.  He attended Western Kentucky University and is a Hilltopper through and through.  While there, he studied radio broadcasting and helped launch WKU's first 24-hour, student-run radio station.  After college, Eric spent a couple more years in Bowling Green at WBVR, but made his first big splash at WFGE in Murray, KY, hosting the morning show for 3 years.  Eric and his wife, Lori, now live in Henderson.  Lori, who has a Masters in Speech Pathology, works for the Home Health Department at Methodist Hospital.  Eric has two major guilty pleasures...Karaoke and Pro Wrestling...so if you want to pick the mic up or lay the smack down, he's in.  Eric looks forward to driving the folks of the Tri-State home every weekday on 99.5 WKDQ!
