Replacing Jack and Ron at Cumulus’ KYIS is the “Joey and Heather Morning Show” from down the hall at KKWD (Wild 104.9).
The station made the announcement today on social media. It marks a change in formats for the duo. KKWD is a Rhythmic Contemporary Hits, while KYIS is an older-skewing Hot Adult Contemporary format. However, KYIS has played more contemporary music and more rhythmic leaning songs in recent years.
No changes in format for either station were announced.
Heather Potter joined the station’s first morning show when KKWD signed on in 2000, first with another host, Troy. In 2001, Joey Combs replaced Troy. The show is rounded out by co-host “Nugget.”
Replacing Joey and Heather on KKWD is “Mike on the Mic,” the station’s current midday host.
Big news! As of Dec. 3rd, the Joey & Heather Morning Show will be live weekday mornings from 6-10 on 98.9 KISS FM!! #kissthis
