CUMULUS Alternative KCJK (X105.1)/KANSAS CITY will launch THE AFENTRA (SHOW) on THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7th, weekdays from 3-8p. AFENTRA previously spent 15 years in mornings at cross-town ENTERCOM Alternative KRBZ (96.5 THE BUZZ).
“The opportunity to bring AFENTRA to the CUMULUS KC cluster was one we simply couldn’t pass up," said CUMULUS MEDIA and WESTWOOD ONE EVP/Content & Programming MIKE MCVAY. "A talent with her skills, experience and market heritage is a rare find. We are excited to have her join our team.”
X105.1 PD MIKE O’REILLY added: “Sometimes in a lineup strategy you get lucky and make a big splash. Adding AFENTRA to X105. 1 is more along the lines of a tidal wave for KANSAS CITY ALTERNATIVE! Afternoons is the ideal daypart for THE AFENTRA (SHOW) on X105.1, and for her next chapter of success.”
AFENTRA said: "X105.1 didn't just say they wanted me, they showed me. I'm not just talking monetarily. Wanting me, my thoughts and my experience - that speaks to my soul, matching their words with actions. I'm rested, excited, and ready to win!"
Former X105.1 afternooner SHAWN QUINN exited the station last summer (NET NEWS, 8/10/18).
