Q99.7/Atlanta Relaunches Middays, Afternoons

• Cumulus Top 40 WWWQ (Q99.7)/Atlanta will launch two new live and local midday and afternoon shows on Tuesday, January 19. The first one, Charged Up, is hosted by popular longtime Atlanta club/event DJ and on-air personality Yvonne Monet, and will air weekdays from 11am-3pm ET, followed by a new afternoon drive show, Atlanta’s Vibe, hosted by Jade Jones, who moves up from nights on Q99.7, and Moe Mitchell, a longtime cast member of The Bert Show — a position he will retain.

Brian Philips, Cumulus EVP of Content & Audience, said, “Atlanta’s sophisticated audience has always demanded and embraced programming innovation. All at Cumulus are proud of, and confident in, these fun, adventuresome changes at Q99.7.” Sean Shannon, VP/Market Manager of Cumulus Atlanta, commented, “Top 40 is an ever-evolving project and the addition of market legend Yvonne Monet to middays and Atlanta’s Vibe with Jade & Moe in afternoon drive adds connection, community and distinctiveness to the Q99.7 brand.”

Louie Diaz, who doubles as Cumulus VP of Contemporary & PD of Q99.7, added, “Welcome to Q99.7, Charged Up! Yvonne Monet will bring a fresh feel to Q99.7 middays with great on-air and video content on our socials. Jade and Moe’s vibe will be a spin-off of The Bert Show — heavy listener inclusion with a lot of video and presence on our station site and socials. Moe will also remain on The Bert Show each weekday morning.”
