Former ENTERCOM Country WUSN (US99)/CHICAGO morning co-host LISA DENT has joined crosstown iHEARTMEDIA Country WEBG (BIG 95.5) for weekend hosting duties. DENT departed WUSN in AUGUST 2016 after 14 years with the station (NET NEWS 8/3/16); she is now set to host SATURDAYS from 12p (CT) to 6p (CT) and SUNDAYS from 10a (CT) to 4p (CT) for WEBG, effective SATURDAY, JUNE 16th. Since leaving WUSN, DENT has been operating her own LISA DENT SPEAKS, LLC and building a studio, THE RADIO FARM. DENT's former US99 co-host, "RAMBLIN RAY" STEVENS, is now co-hosting mornings at CUMULUS News-Talk WLS-A. The pair was honored as part of the COUNTRY RADIO HALL OF FAME (CRHOF) Class Of 2016 just weeks before they exited WUSN (NET NEWS 6/23/16).
"I am delighted that LISA DENT is joining our team," said iHEARTMEDIA/CHICAGO Region Markets Group President MATT SCARANO. "LISA is a 'CHICAGO Icon,' a COUNTRY RADIO HALL OF FAMER, and an amazing addition to our lineup." Added DENT, "I’m thrilled to be working at CHICAGO’s destination for all things Country. Nothing sounds more fun than jumping back on the radio at BIG 95.5 and connecting with my audience!"
