Yo!

I’m Kyle “Lunchmeat” Bauer. Heres some background on myself. Ive been in sports radio at WXOU for three years. Been listening to WDFN since I was 8 years old (scary eh?).

Baseball and hockey are my main subjects. Been an avid follwer of both since the days of Chad Krueter and John Chabot. I might not had known most of what was going on, but my dad did the best he could to break it down for me. To no ones interest, I played a lot of hockey and baseball growing up. I played baseball through high school, and I still play beer league hockey today. So I would say that also has a lot to do with why those are my two favorite sports and I would say the ones Im most knowledgable on. Not that Im one of those guys who thinks he could manage the Tigers because he played little league from 8 to 12 years old.

I am currently the Sports Director at WXOU. In the past I have served as the PSA Director and News Director. The entire time Ive been at the station I have been covering Oakland University ACHA hockey. Starting out as the pre, post game and intermission analyst, I am currently working as the color commentator and on occasion play-by-play. You can also hear me engineering Oakland basketball games, while providing half time and post game coverage. To go along with the various sports coverage I do at WXOU I have multiple music programs, where I spin various forms of indie music, which is my personal taste.

I am also a contributing sports reporter, blogger and guest columnist for the Oakland Post.
