A Brief Look At Dan Barreiro’s Career
Barreiro had a passion for pursuing journalism from a tender age. He wanted to be a newspaperman but as he grew older, he also developed a passion for radio and he always dreamt of working in a radio studio.
His dream came true in 1984 when he was assigned the duties of being the lead front-page sports columnist for the Star Tribune. He crafted his writing skills for the subsequent 20 years until 2004 when radio came calling.
Dan had always believed in himself so when the chance came, he accepted the roles with open arms and the transition seemed effortless. He appeared on the KFAN morning show once in a while (characteristics of a newbie) until he established a solid presence.
As time went by, he started co-hosting the afternoon drive-time show on KFAN with Chad Hartman then went solo afterward. Since then, Dan has established himself as the pioneer of the afternoon drive (He also hosts a popular Sunday show called Sunday Sermons).
Even though he hosts a sports station, he has always taken great satisfaction in producing an opinion-driven, free-form program that presents a unique fusion of pop culture, news, and politics with sports news and highlights. His breakdowns are famous, and he conducts frank, perceptive, and thought-provoking interviews.
