But this seemingly dedicated civil servant has a a back story and creative side that is so fascinating. He was the youngest DJ at KSWS 89.3 FM radio station in the late 1990s and early 2000s and later KXWS 89.9 FM, a tribal radio station at the Sisseton Wabpeton Oyate. His music knowledge, his cultural respect is so on par with any radio personality you’ll see in films today. He was a combination of John Trudell’s Randy Peone in Smoke Signal or Northern Exposure’s Chris Stevens portrayed by John Corbett.
