Cumulus Media Top 40 Q99.7 (WWWQ-FM)/Atlanta has unveiled a new weekday on-air lineup today.
Q99.7 star, Jade Jones moves from Afternoons to the Q99.7 midday slot, as she takes the mic as Midday Host from 10:00am-2:00pm.
From 2:00pm-7:00pm, Q99.7 debuts its new afternoon drive program, “The Kristin Show,” hosted by Kristin Klingshirn, popular Atlanta on-air personality and former Co-Host of “The Bert Show.” Joining Klingshirn as On-Air Co-Host is Ethan Cole, who was previously Afternoon Host on Power 96.1 (WWPW-FM) in Atlanta, and has most recently been heard on Now 100.5 (KZZO-FM) in Sacramento, CA. He has also had on-air roles in markets including New Bedford, MA, and San Diego, CA.
Evenings remain fully live and local as Q99.7’s Laura Dickerson transitions from Middays to Nights, hosting 7:00pm–Midnight, and continuing the station’s commitment to real-time presence and engagement well beyond daytime hours. Overnight programming will continue with Westwood One’s nationally syndicated “Nightly with Jade & Tyler,” airing Midnight–5:00am.
Patrick Davis, Program Director, Q99.7, said: “This new lineup marks an exciting evolution for Q99.7. Pieces of our new world are coming together, and planets are aligning. With Jade in Middays, Kristin and Ethan in Afternoon Drive, Laura in Nights, and Overnights with Jade & Tyler, the station is packed with highly creative and entertaining personalities delivering an enhanced and unique listening experience that Atlanta will love. There’s even more in store for Q99.7 listeners this year, and we can’t wait for it all to unfold.”
Ethan Cole, Co-Host, “The Kristin Show,” commented: “As someone who’s been on the air in Atlanta for several years, I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with Kristin… as in, I loved to hate her because of how good The Bert Show was. This is like being traded from the Saints to the Falcons. I’m so excited for this opportunity and incredibly thankful to everyone involved in making it happen. All I can say is… Atlanta, I’m home!”
Jade Jones, On-Air Host, Middays, Q99.7, remarked: “Atlanta has always shown me so much love and being able to connect with listeners during the heart of their day is something I don’t take lightly. Get ready for new energy, companionship, and fun. I can’t wait to bring that vibe to the city every day!”
Laura Dickerson, On-Air Host, Nights, Q99.7, noted: “The vision Patrick Davis is building is inspiring. I’m thrilled to be part of the incredible team kicking off this new chapter in Atlanta radio history. We’re just getting started!”
