San Diego Radio: A-J & Sara EXIT Sunny 98.1

Longtime local radio host AJ Machado announced Wednesday he and his cohost Sara Perry would no longer be hosting their morning show for KXSN Sunny 98.1.

"AJ & Sara on Sunny 98.1” started in 2018 after moving from KyXy 96.5 FM to Sunny 98.1, taking over the morning show. Machado – a fixture on San Diego radio – and co-host Sara Perry, who was on the air at KMFB-FM for 15 years, along with producer Hula Ramos made the trek to Sunny 98.1 together.

Cohost Sara Perry also released a statement on Facebook, "I'm no longer on the air at Sunny 98.1. We're all a bit shocked and of course, a lot bummed and we'll miss interacting with our awesome listeners, thank you all for waking up with us every morning."

Ramos, also now separated from Sunny 98.1, said on Facebook, "I don't know if you will ever hear 'Hula' on your radio again but I do want to say THANK YOU for all your love and support and allowing me into your lives!"

The details of their departure from Entercom's Sunny 98.1 have not been released.

But Machado said he's not sure what the future holds after 19 years on air.
