Kirk Lauterback joined Joe Cicero talk about glasses, contacts, getting your and your kid’s eyes checked and more! Great story as he worked at Shopko Optical starting in 1993 as an optician and is now COO. From Hoffman Estates, he is excited to have locations in our area. Huntley, Elgin, and Crystal Lake! We also talked about KIDS IN FOCUS, a program through our local Lions Clubs, to help kids in need get glasses. Click the link for more. He also touches on the 20/20/20 rule that you may want to hear about if you are on a computer at work. Find more on Kids in Focus, and make an appointment at shopko.com!

Joe & Tina in the NW Burbs

Joe and Tina have been a mainstay of mornings in area for almost 12 years! You can listen every morning as they have updates on happening across the area, and a lot of fun too! You can play “You’ve Got to Get up Pretty Early” in the morning at 530, Thee Impossible Question at 620, and hear the Hollywood Quick hits at 550 and 750! In between they’ll talk about things that affect your daily life, while starting the morning out as upbeat as possible. It’s real, and it’s your hometown station! You can listen on air, here on star105.com, the free iHeart app, or ask your smart speaker to play the radio station too!

If you hear us mention something on air there’s a good chance it’s on our social channels too!
