Sal Palazzolo, Program Director, 99.9 The Hawk/WODE-FM, commented: “I am pleased to welcome Dave to the Hawk Team! Dave’s experience and synergies with the rest of the Cumulus Allentown Staff will be a welcome addition. I’m eager for Rick Michaels and his new on-air partner to wake up the Valley and keep WODE-FM the force it has been for many years!”
Dave Gibson remarked: “Mama, I’m coming home! As a kid I used to record songs to cassette off WODE, so joining their well-established morning show is a real thrill. 99.9 The Hawk represents the best of everything that is the Lehigh Valley, and I can’t wait to join their winning brand and rock mornings with Rick.”
Rick Michaels added: “I am eager to start a new chapter with the Hawk Morning Rave with Rick and Dave. We hit it off from the second we met!! Plus, Dave comes from working with the legendary John DeBella in Philly, so he brings some serious chops to mornings on WODE. I am sure this will be an awesome new morning show for THE Lehigh Valley Classic Rock station!!”
