In part 2 of a rollicking 80 minutes of conversation from Gibs Sports Bar, local broadcasting legend Mike Henriksen starts with an epic story of how he broke into the radio business in Sioux Falls after spending 10 years in small markets like Gregory, Madison, and Mitchell.

That story itself — which sprung from a stand-up comedy routine — is gold, but so is Mike's story about where he was when he found out his life was about to change. It was a memorable phone call taken in an iconic place in American sports lore, and it led to his nearly 40 years as a citywide and statewide giant of both South Dakota radio and TV.

Then, the conversation turns back to Mike younger days of how old AM school radio in the 1960's and 70's left the impression on him enough to be determined to not carry on his father's work as a pig farmer.

Plus, there's the story about Mike's mid-career lure back home to Nebraska to talk Husker football on the radio, which never materialized. Make sure you listen to the end for his wackiest story about doing radio play-by-play and his dream of not just winning the lottery, but the first thing he would do with his earnings.
