John Mingione

Cumulus Media has announced that John “Online” Mingione will join the WPLJ 95.5 FM weekday morning program, “Todd & Jayde in the Morning” as Street Ranger and Video Vigilante.

“Todd & Jayde in the Morning” airs weekdays on 95.5 WPLJ from 6AM-10AM.

Mingione debuted Monday on 95.5 WPLJ. Mingione was previously part of the on-air team on WBLI 106.1 FM morning show “Dana & Jayson in the Morning”, and was Director of Digital Media for Cox Media Group-Long Island (WBLI and WBAB).

Mingione is a native New Yorker who was born and raised on Long Island. He holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Media Production from State University of New York at New Paltz. Mingione’s viral videos and parody songs have received millions of views on YouTube and Facebook.

Chad Lopez, Vice President/Market Manager, Cumulus Media-New York said: “Everyone at 95.5 WPLJ and Cumulus is excited to see John bring his high energy and enthusiasm to the airwaves with Todd & Jayde. John’s unique creative style is the perfect addition to the fast-moving morning show on WPLJ, already seeing tremendous results.”

Gillette, Program Director, 95.5 WPLJ said: “In less than 16 months, ‘Todd & Jayde in the Morning’ has grown to be a top 5 show with Women 25-54 in the most competitive market in the universe. That’s beyond remarkable. But instead of being satisfied, the hiring of Johnny is like throwing gasoline on an already raging fire, and is indicative of our commitment to make the show a three-dimensional dominator…on the air, on the street and online/social media.”

Mingione said: “You can catch me on the streets of New York City with "Todd & Jayde in the Morning" weekdays from 6-10AM! As the newest addition to the show, my goal is to bring a fun and weird twist to every morning. I look forward to bringing my videos, parody songs and unique perspectives to PLJ listeners!”
