Towns like Maquoketa and Wapello have difficult to pronounce names; we just don't think so because we're local, and we hear these names said on the news all the time. But for people outside the area, the correct pronunciation of some of the stranger town names is complete guesswork.

The same is true for us when it comes to other parts of the state, so we found some complicated Iowa town names and asked our DJs to pronounce them. They hadn't ever heard of most of these towns, so the results kinda resemble a train wreck. Enjoy!
