About Us

I grew up in Ortonville and have been working in radio for over 20 years; 11 of those have been as the Chief Operator at KDIO.  I enjoy the many and varied aspects of promoting the area that I call home and I also enjoy the opportunity to meet some of the great country music legends that can be heard on KDIO.  (The picture is with  “Whisperin” Bill Anderson).  I live with my son, my mom and our two dogs, Suzie and Rowdy.  Music has always been near and dear to my heart and I think being able to play the country classics and serve the community is a privilege; one that I am so happy to have the opportunity to enjoy.

Hey everyone – My name is Adam Dashiell and I have been with Big Stone Radio for over 20 years. I pride myself in being a jack of all trades as I fill the roles of ON AIR/ Sport Director of KDIO w/ play by play duties, Commercial Production, and as a Marketing Consultant. The variety this bring each day is what I enjoy most about my job. I love being a Dad to 2 beautiful, intelligent, and active daughters. I have been married to my wife Jeanine for over 16 years and she is my #1. Fishing and spending time at the Lake, Cooking, being involved in my kids activities, and working on my yard is what I love to do in my “Free time”. Local Radio is alive and well and I’m proud to be a part of it right here in our communities!!! 

I was born and raised in Aberdeen SD. I went to Roncalli High School and went on to Northern State University and graduated with a Double major in Management and Marketing in 2012.

I got married in 2013, and we’ve since had two daughters, Everly and Ellery. In my free time I like to spend time with my family and friends, and we really like to travel.
