Denver Radio: Tom Nalen To EXIT KKFN The Fan

Tom Nalen

Just days after Bonneville's KKFN 104.3 The Fan announced its new midday and weeknight shows, afternoon co-host Tom Nalen is reportedly leaving on his own terms.

Nalen joined Darren “DMac” McKee on The Drive in April, after Alfred Williams left The Fan’s afternoon show for News/Talk KOA 850.  He is returning to the East Coast for personal reasons.  The former Broncos offensive lineman grew up in Foxborough, MA.

Replacing Nalen on KKFN is expected to be two former Broncos, tackle Tyler Polumbus and safety Nick Ferguson. 

In April, Ferguson began hosting The Fan’s midday show until being replaced by Sandy Clough and Orlando Franklin earlier this week.  On Monday, program director Raj Sharan tweeted that Ferguson would remain with The Fan “in a variety of capacities.”  Those capacities now appear to include joining the station’s afternoon show.

Polumbus most recently worked as a morning host on iHeartMedia’s Orange and Blue 760 AM which flipped to news talk as KDFD earlier this summer.
