iHeartMedia San Francisco has announced Jack Kulp will end his run as co-host in morning drive with Carolyn McArdle, effective May 5 on KSIQ 98.1 The Breeze, San Francisco Bay Area’s Relaxing Favorites At Work.

“Being part of The Breeze launch seven years ago couldn’t have been more rewarding and co-hosting ‘The Morning Breeze’ with Carolyn McArdle was more fun than anyone should be allowed have at ‘work,’” said Kulp. “But a few months ago, my wife and I concluded that, after over 25 years of waking up at 3:45, it was time to silence the alarm clock. Thanks so much to Ricci Filiar, Don Parker, and iHeart for giving me this fantastic opportunity.”

Cort Johnson will replace Kulp as co-host of “The Morning Breeze” and join Carolyn McArdle weekdays from 6am-10am starting Monday, May 8. Johnson was previously morning host at KINK-FM in Portland, where he was also Assistant Program Director for KINK-FM and KUPL-FM.

“We all want to congratulate Jack on his long and successful career and thank him for all his contributions to The Breeze since its launch in 2016. We wish him continued success and much happiness in the next chapter of his life,” said Ricci Filiar, Program Director. “We also are happy to welcome Cort Johnson to The Breeze family and look forward to him and Carolyn McArdle taking ‘The Morning Breeze’ to exciting new heights.”
