Jax Radio: Eden Kendall Exits WGNE Morning Show


Longtime radio personality Eden Kendall has left her position as morning show host on Jacksonville's WGNE 99.9 Gator Country and is returning to morning television.

Florida Times-Union reports Kendall co-hosted the show with Amadeus. She had been with the station since June 2007. Prior to that, she and Amadeus were part of a "Morning Zoo" crew on Jacksonville's WAPE for 11 years, moving to Gator Country after a six-month "non-compete" clause in their contracts had expired.

Following her final show on Friday, Kendall said she'll be moving to News4Jax, where she will serve as co-host of the morning "River City Live" show. She previously worked on the show from 2015-2022.

"Two and a half years ago, I was doing 'River City Live" and the radio show both. It was a really long day," she said. "I wanted to focus on this one thing for the first time in a long time." 

Kendall will also continue as co-host of a podcast, "Uncluttered and Unfiltered," with professional organizer Christine Stone. The podcast is aimed at women over 50 and covers a wide variety of topics, from TV to travel to sex.

She said it would be impossible to pick the best moments from 30 years on the radio, but an April Fool's Day gag the show pulled claiming that Jacksonville's Super Bowl had been canceled stands out for the furor it created.
