Marty’s radio career started when he was 13 at KGRG and he went on to host shows at some of Seattle’s most renowned radio properties: KCMU (the precursor to KEXP), KZOK, KJR, KXRX, and KMTT – The Mountain.
He’s gone on to establish himself in a variety of other media arenas. From one of the first daily live music and entertainment podcasts in Seattle to his award-winning production company, Twisted Scholar, to an annual live comedy festival – “The Marty Riemer Funny Festival”. But, through it all, he has maintained a genuine love for radio and the opportunity to introduce listeners to cool music and is excited to do it again.
“It’s been a while since I’ve experienced FOMO listening to the radio”, Riemer stated. “But as soon as 98.9 KPNW went on the air, and I heard them play a bunch of cool oh-wow songs, and saw who they were hiring, I thought, hey, I’d like to be a part of that. So, I’m thrilled I am, even in a small way. Seattle has needed a station like 98.9 KPNW for a long time.”
Welcome Marty! We are excited to have you at Hubbard Seattle on the new 98.9 KPNW!
