96.1 The Rock: The Soundtrack of Fond du Lac's Mornings
If you're a fan of classic rock, modern rock, and entertaining local radio personalities, there's one station that continues to crank up the volume across the Fond du Lac area—95 & 96.1 The Rock. As a locally owned rock station, it delivers the music listeners love while keeping the community connected with local news, events, and personalities.
Leading the charge every weekday morning is the Wheely Big Show, one of the area's most recognizable morning programs. From 6:00 to 10:00 a.m., Keith Heisler, better known as Wheels, teams up with Jason Mansmith, known as Biggie, to create a show that's equal parts rock, laughter, conversation, and community.
The chemistry between Wheels and Biggie is what keeps listeners coming back. Whether they're discussing local happenings, interviewing guests, sharing hilarious stories, or simply giving each other a hard time, the duo brings an authentic energy that feels like you're hanging out with friends over a cup of coffee—only with an incredible rock soundtrack playing in the background.
Of course, the music is just as important. 96.1 The Rock serves up an outstanding mix of classic favorites and today's rock, featuring legendary artists alongside newer bands that keep the station sounding fresh. It's the perfect soundtrack whether you're heading to work, driving across town, or just turning up the volume at home.
As a local station, 96.1 The Rock also supports the Fond du Lac community by promoting local events, businesses, charities, and organizations. That hometown connection is something national stations simply can't replicate, making The Rock a true part of everyday life in the area.
If you haven't tuned in lately, make your mornings a little louder with the Wheely Big Show featuring Wheels and Biggie. Great rock, genuine laughs, local conversation, and two personalities who know how to keep Northeast Wisconsin entertained—it's everything a hometown morning show should be.
