Former BEASLEY Alternative WBOS (ALT 92.9)/BOSTON MD JOEL WEISS joins CUMULUS Alternative KCJK (X105.1) and Top 40 KCHZ (95-7 THE VIBE)/KANSAS CITY as APD/MD of both stations.  WEISS will also host nights from 8-mid on X105.1.

KCJK & KCHZ PD MIKE O’REILLY said, “The timing of being able to integrate JOEL into our X and VIBE brands is truly remarkable. It’s not every day you find such a creative, talented programming vet with JOEL’s unique skill set and unanimous favor in the industry.”

"From my first conversations with MIKE O'REILLY and TROY HANSON, through my visit to KC, this felt like a unique opportunity to work with amazing people," said JOEL WEISS. "I'm so psyched to join the CUMULUS family ... and also to watch PATRICK MAHOMES play football every week this fall!" 

"The talented programming teams led by MIKE O’REILLY have grown both of these important brands exponentially in KANSAS CITY," CUMULUS RVP DONNA BAKER said. "JOEL’s experience as a strategist with a proven record of winning is exactly the partner these teams can count on to further growth for the long-term.”

Prior to BOSTON, WEISS spent 13 years at COX Alternative WSUN (97X)/TAMPA.
