For over 20 years, Homer has hosted one of the most popular talk shows in the Milwaukee area. Now, Homer has expanded his range to the Madison area as he found a home on FM 100.5 ESPN each weekday from 3pm-6pm. Like his name suggests, Homer pulls for the local teams, but that doesn’t mean he supports everything done by them.
