Mike Ipong was formerly Traffic Reporter for all Cumulus Media Oklahoma City morning shows, was midday host on WilD 104.9, and also produced “The Jack and Ron Show” on 98.9 KISS-FM.
Jay Davis, Vice President/Market Manager of Cumulus Media Oklahoma City said: “Jack and Ron are a valuable and longstanding brand in OKC morning radio, and bring a loyal following with them to 96.9 KQOB mornings. Joey and Heather were our first and only choices to replace Jack and Ron on 98.9 KISS-FM, as they will ignite the upwardly mobile demographics we strive to reach on 98.9 KISS-FM.”
Davis added: “Mike Ipong’s energy, enthusiasm and contagious personality make “The WiLD Wakeup with Mike in the Morning” a must-listen every morning on WiLD 104.9. We believe our listeners will love the new morning line-up and the brand awareness of these shows will propel us forward in the next stage of our growth process.”
