After only two months on the air, the "Pete and Sarah in the Morning" show on WVMT 620 AM has come to an end.
According to sevendaysvt.com, Cohosts Pete Belair and Sarah Mitiguy were informed after their Friday broadcast that they were being fired. A new local talk show featuring Burlington City Council President Kurt Wright and DJ/podcaster Marcus Certa will take over the 6 to 9 a.m. broadcast on Monday.

"They told me how good I was at music but [that] I didn't have the chops for political talk," Belair said.
WVMT and WXXX were sold in October by Paul Goldman to Burlington-based Vox AM/FM, which already owned WEZF-FM Star 92.9, WCPV-FM 101.3 The Game, WXZO-FM 96.7 MeTV FM and two other stations. Vox owner Ken Barlow wanted to keep "Charlie + Ernie in the Morning," but the two men decided it was time to step away. Barlow then shifted Belair and Mitiguy from the FM station to the AM.
