Val

My friends, this was a big moment for me. I know, it sounds a little dorky, but how exciting is it when you get a "like", "re-tweet" or follow on Twitter from one of your favorite celebs? I was super pumped when Maren Morris "liked" one of my tweets...

Yesterday during Afternoons With Val, I invited all of you to call in with great ghost stories. Thank you so much for the calls!! I got way more than I bargain for from a listener named Linda! Do you remember this? She shares more here than what you heard yesterday...

You guys loved my Dad's visit to Rochester last month! You loved his thoughts on Minnesota even more! I thought I'd fill you in on what he's been up to lately. He went to Las Vegas last week, and the photos are hilarious!! What happened there didn't stay there...

If you're a child of the 90's, you probably remember being sung Sharon, Lois and Bram's "Skinnamarink" at bedtime. I certainly do anyway! So, when I saw the song resurfacing on Facebook last week, I had to call my mom and rehash some old memories of the tune...

I was wondering about this for a long time! I've never had a pumpkin spice latte until today, and I loved it! However, I got the feeling that most people didn't share my excitement. Take a look! Yep, set to the tune of "This Is Halloween" from The Nightmare Before Christmas, I decided to "bomb" people and throw a pumpkin spice latte in their face while screaming "THIS IS P

If you've got an iPhone, you probably also noticed that you're being forced to update your software to iOS10. It caught me by surprise this morning, and right away I noticed a lot of things were different. Firstly, the new sound for the keyboard clicks is pretty cool...

She wasn't even sorry. I caught my cat, Pantera, taking a lick of my beef enchilada that we made for dinner last night - and I had to shame her! She has to know that this isn't okay! LOL!! Why did she do this!? I really hope it didn't bother her (it didn't seem too) because it was kind of spicy...

Did you know it's National Line Dancing Week? I couldn't help but highlight this on Afternoons with Val! Let's have some fun and revisit our favorites line dancing tunes this week! Here are my top 5 favorite line dancing tunes. You just might hear them during my show at around 2:30 to celebrate...

You guys loved the photo of me and my Dad, Ernie, from the other day! Thanks for the likes!! I thought you'd want to know.... Dad loves Rochester too! He's from Pittsburgh, just like me, so when the opportunity to stop by came he took advantage of it...

You've heard about this all week! You voted! We thank you! It turned out that I, Val, got the honor of jumping from the dock dog dock at the Scheels Hunting Expo at the Apache Mall today. My heart was pounding, and it was a somewhat chilly day for August, so I didn't know what to expect...
