Kyle Mann is exactly where he wants to be; having grown up on the southwest side of Cedar Rapids and listening to KGYM since he was old enough to ride in the car with his dad, he pinpointed early on what he wanted to do when he grew up, and where he wanted to do it.
Kyle attended Jefferson High School, and then spent his college years in Iowa City earning two degrees; B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communication, and also B.A. in Sports Studies. He definitely made it to every class, always on time, and also spent much of his time writing for Iowa’s student publication, The Daily Iowan. In his time, Kyle covered nearly every sport; tennis, golf, softball, baseball, men and women’s basketball, and football. There are few things that are more important — television, Fortnite, cats, snacks, and orange juice — to Kyle than Iowa sports, so he thought it would be perfect to make a living out of covering them (and other stuff too).
The best thing about Kyle is that he is a Cubs fan, and that’s really about it in the Redeeming Qualities department. He’s ashamed of his Bears and disturbed by his Bulls, but just can’t shake them, you know? If you seem him around town, talk to him. He both listens and rambles, which makes him a fantastic time-killer.
