‘Bedtime Magic’ Ending After 40 Years

• First Matt Siegel, and now this — another longtime Boston radio icon announced his retirement this week, as David Allan Boucher, host of Bedtime Magic on Audacy AC WMJX (Magic 106.7) for the past four decades, announced he will soon be winding down his duties.

A post on the station’s Facebook page noted, “Boucher hosted Bedtime Magic solo for 40 years and it has been the longest running and most successful night-time show in the history of Boston radio. He was the first voice on Magic when it signed on 40 years ago — and has been a mainstay on Magic 106.7 since. We will be celebrating his illustrious legacy with special programming, so continue to send in suggestions!”

Boucher (who has never intentionally shown his face publicly) said, “40 years is a long time and I feel very fortunate to have been able to spend that time at one dial position, one time slot, on one great radio station. I’m very grateful to the generations of friends who spend so many years with us every night. Without them… there wouldn’t have been a show.”
