Lori

Lori Bennett is an award-winning radio personality and actor proud to be working in Michiana as U-93’s 10a-2p weekday host. After being introduced to media arts by a friend at Central Michigan University, Lori spent her time haunting the hallways of college and local radio stations there before returning to her hometown of Detroit. While there, she performed at several high-profile radio stations in various roles, including Morning Show Host, Program Director, Marketing Director, and Music Director. Most recently, Lori worked in Grand Rapids MI where she fell in love with South Bend less than two hours away during a visit with a friend attending Notre Dame.

Lori also is a commercial voiceover and live actor, having been the key talent for several national stores such as Wawa and Kum and Go. She has endorsed campaigns for leading brands including Phillips Sonic Care, Ideal You and Sono Bello plus has hosted and performed in person for multiple Michigan television and stage projects.

When not in studio or at a live U-93 event, Lori enjoys consuming all genres of music, cooking gourmet meals for friends and volunteering at various non-profit organizations, especially those supporting cancer patients and their families. She is a staunch animal rescue supporter and is involved with multiple Midwest organizations. Lori also needs to be near the water constantly as an avid boating and swimming enthusiast; the St. Joseph River is her new visual go-to for a peaceful escape from reality.

Big Perm

Hailing from Milford, Michigan, Big Perm says his show here at U93 has been a dream come true. Voted most upbeat and positive by U93 staff, Perm loves electronic music and is the BIGGEST boy band fan you'll ever encounter. Always the class clown- he is rarely the type of guy to turn down a dare.

OK, so maybe it's a little strange, but he collects cologne (and that means he always smells on point). Perm also collects sports memorabilia and stays true to his roots by cheering for the Michigan Wolverines, Detroit Tigers, Lions and Red Wings. When he is not lighting up the airwaves at U93, you can catch him watching Sportscenter, Family Guy or Modern Family on TV plus going to the movies. He'll never turn down a chance to watch any of the Batman or Fast & Furious flicks.

His guilty pleasure music is boy bands - Backstreet Boys, NSYNC...you name it! Along with his colorful musical preferences, he has got a heart of gold. Perm's secret passion? Helping people who are struggling. He empathizes with people down on their luck: Once experiencing a hardship and having no one to turn to himself, he vowed to be a person for others to turn to so that they never felt the way he did. He has a soft spot for people in need and tries to help in any way he can.

We all have secret fantasies, and Perm is to be a super famous celebrity. (Think crowds of people wanting his picture, asking for an autograph, and screaming his name.) No one who has ever met Perm would be the least bit surprised at this reality.

Books? Nah, Perm says he'dd rather sit down with a good girly mag like Cosmo. Oh, and if you ever hear the phrases "Right on." "Sweet." "Man." Bro." being repeated, know Perm's surely just around the corner. Another tell-tale sign is a trail of Monster Zero Energy Drinks cans, he is a reformed Pop-a-holic who sticks to those or water only! Kudos for that one, Big Perm!

Perm is a sharp dressed man and would take a shopping spree at Express if he had to choose. That or a pet store- he says he would take them all home with him if he could and share his favorite Moose Tracks ice cream with them (Dawwww Perm! You had us at Express!)
Another reason to love the guy?

When we asked Perm what he'd do if he was mayor of South Bend for a day, he said he would throw the BIGGEST Summer Party EVER! "I'd invite every single person in the city, make sure there was no cover, have U93 as the DJ, and then MC the event himself."

You've surely got our vote, Big Perm!
