Weekday Mornings 6am - 10am
Hi, I'm Colby Ericson. I've been doing the Morning Show with Wolf now since March 2008. I was born into a military family in Japan...I traveled a lot as a kid...After moving to Illinois from Japan...I ended up in New Hampshire, and Rhode Island all before the 5th grade...I lived in Kewanee, Illinois...the Hog Capitol of the World until my Junior year in High School. That's when we moved to Kansas, Claflin to be exact, in Central Kansas. I graduated High School and joined the Air force, the next 6 years where spent in Texas, Colorado, Wichita, and Japan, that got the "military" out of my system.
Growing up in Illinois I had the chance to listen to the great WLS out of Chicago. The radio bug had infected me the first time I heard Uncle Larry and Little Tommy's Animal Stories! So I found the great program at Fort Hays State University and earned my Bachelor's degree in Communication! (Insert Oktoberfest jokes here...go ahead take the liberty!) I then landed my first "gig" in Russell playing Polkas, which lasted 3 months, then it was off to Great Bend, Dodge City, Hutchinson, and now Wichita...I had the opportunity to work for two heritage radio stations in Wichita...KEYN and KFDI. Talk about two great experiences in two seperate formats.
Over my career i've had the opportunity to work with some of the best people in Kansas radio, and the radio business in general. The highlight of my career was winning the CMA Awards last year in Nashville...The Morning Show that I was part of for three years won Medium Market Personalities of the year!! What a great honor for a lot of hard work...it's nice to be recognized by your peers especially when your co-workers don't know what they have in front of them.
I've been doing the Morning Show with Wolf now since March. I love running into past and current fans! My two girls Madyson and Reece are always howling and singing along when we go places, hopefully you guys are too. If I'm not playing the music in the morning I'm probably on the golf course, or taking Madyson to soccer practice! Thanks for coming with me to the Wolf! AWHOOOOOO!

Mid-days 10am - 3pm
Hi, I'm Ron Allen. I'm the mid-days show host for the Wolf.
Ron was fortunate to grow up in Jackson, Wyoming, a few miles from Grand Teton and Yellowstone National parks. After attending college at Black Hill State University in South Dakota, Ron returned to Wyoming to work for KSGT radio in Jackson. After a year on the air at KSGT, Ron moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma where he spent the next 15 years on the air and became Music Director and later Program Director for highly rated stations in that market.
In 2000, Ron moved his family to Wichita to become Program Director of KEYN and KWSJ. In early 2002, he moved to cross town rival Journal Broadcast Group to become the Marketing Director of their six station cluster.
In January of 2006, he was once again on the move to Kansas City, Kansas as the Marketing Director for Cumulus Broadcasting which operates six radio stations and the Kansas City Chiefs network. After only four months in that position, Ron was presented with an opportunity too good to pass up and returned to Wichita to become the first Program Director of a brand new Connoisseur Media radio property KIBB 100.5 BOB FM.
Later, Ron had the opportunity to launch another radio station, KVWF The Wolf. Ron and his wife Julie ,who is an Account Executive with the Wichita Eagle, have three boys: Ryan 21, Justin 5, and Jason 3. Ron enjoys running and has competed in 100 mile ultra-marathons through the mountains of Colorado. He is an avid reader and likes to travel.

Weekday Afternoons 3pm - 7pm
Hi, I'm Manny Cowzinski. You can just call me Manny. I do afternoons on The Wolf. I am the newest member of The Wolf on air staff. I am proud to call Wichita home. I have been in Wichita radio for many years. I was at KKRD for 13 years and have also worked at a couple other stations in Wichita. I am Wichita's biggest Denver Broncos fan (insert jokes here). I am also a Colorado Avalanche hockey fan and I love KU! I enjoy playing hockey, riding bikes, going to movies, running, working out and spending time with my beautiful wife, Kristi and my huge family (Zach, Madison, Austin, Ally, Tiana and Destiny). Yes! That's a lot of kids. Thanks for listening to The Wolf and I hope to see you around!

Weekday Nights 7pm - 12am
Hi, I'm Patrick Murphy. I'm the guy who likes to howl at the moon here on The Wolf.
I grew up in Greensburg, KS. I loved radio as a kid. I'd spend Sunday afternoons listening to WGN Chicago on my crystal radio set. Even though my home was way out in Western Kansas, I was able to pick up Wichita radio stations on my stereo and knew that was what I wanted to do. I started my radio career over 20 years ago at KSCB in Liberal, KS. It's hard to believe it's been that long! Since then, I've worked at several different stations and have had the great opportunity to work with PD Ron Allen in three different locations here in Wichita. Working on The Wolf is about as much fun as you can get!
My wife Deb works for the Wichita Water Department. We have one daughter, Evie, who keeps us extremely busy! I like to go camping in Colorado, work on computers, and watch the show "24". I also do a weekly podcast from my home recording studio.

Weekends 2pm-6pm
Hi, I'm Nick. I'm howlin' during the weekends on the Wolf.
I'm proud to say I have been a part of the "Wolf Pack" staff since day one. I am a Kansas native growing up in Mulvane, just 15 minutes south of Wichita. I used to work behind the scenes for the past few years at some other Wichita stations before getting the honor to jump over to the Wolf team. I haven't looked back since. Growing up in Mulvane I became infatuated with radio and broadcasting. I built my own crystal radio set as a kid and would listen to Casey Kasem and Paul Harvey. Then I would stay up late and tune over to those shortwave bands to pick up the BBC. I am also proud to say I am neither a Denver Broncos fan or a Cowboys fan, so be sure to harass Manny and Ron when you get a chance. Ever since working at the Wolf, I have had the experiences of a lifetime for which I will be forever grateful to the great folks over here, and of course you listeners out there in radio land.
If I'm not working at the station, you'll find me doing a number of things. I do voice over's for various clients, shoot video and film as a hobby, walk my wonderful dog Lucy, play a little guitar (in my free time... Not literally a small guitar), and watch TV when I get a chance to be lazy. Thanks for you support and loyalty! Also remember, you Wolf listeners are the best radio audience in Wichita!
