Craig Hansen |
Craig Hansen’s first day with KMJ was Nov. 24, 1976. Next week he will celebrate 42 years with the station.
Blake Taylor, KMJ program director, said that far as they can tell, his tenure is likely the second-longest run in KMJ’s 96 year history short of Jerry Higgenbotham, who was there from 1949-1994.
Hansen has held a number of on-air positions over the decades, and was described as the “go-to guy on Saturdays,” hosting news, “Autoshop Talk,” “Real Talk” and “Radio Tradio,” which was the local answer to Craigslist before the site was born.
Hansen’s final show at KMJ is scheduled for Dec. 22, according to The Business Journal.
“After that, he and his better half will be driving his Corvette out of the mayhem of California and moving out of state to retire in peace,” Taylor said.
