The conservative News/Talk format reaches a highly engaged audience that are affluent homeowners who have the disposable income to spend on quality, not price.  These people live in St. Joseph, Elkhart and Berrien counties along with all the counties they touch in Northern Indiana and Southwest Michigan.  The station offers programming and engaging hosts that are truly a friend to our listeners, people that they trust, which often translates to them becoming loyal customers to our dedicated advertisers. 95.3 MNC has a live, local morning show dedicated to informing listeners to the morning’s top local and national news, traffic, weather, sports and more. If the world changes overnight, listeners hear about it first thing on MNC.  Our local afternoon host, Casey Hendrickson, has topped the ratings on more than one occasion and fills listeners in on what happened locally, nationally, and internationally during their workday.
