Background
Gerber is the Host and Creator of From the Land. Gerber grew up in the Cleveland area as an avid fan of the Cleveland Browns, Guardians (ne – Indians) and Cavaliers. Gerber was fortunate enough to spend his high school years, and many years after, with the Guys. After wrapping up a lot of school in Ohio, Gerber joined the Army for work in exotic places like Barstow CA, Camp Doha Kuwait and Camp Taji Iraq. After a short, strange tour, Gerber got married and settled in Las Vegas for almost 15 years, eventually returning to the Midwest and landing in sunny (sometimes) Ludington, “State up North”. All along the way Gerber held close to his friends and his Cleveland Sports. From the Land is the culmination of 30 + years of both and a chance to bring lighthearted, fun, conversation to a world with far too little.
