Whitmer Named AM Co-Host, KNSS/Wichita

• Audacy News-Talk KNSS/Wichita, KS is launching a new morning show on Jan. 5, as John Whitmer joins co-host Ted Woodward to create.. wait for it… Woodward and Whit, weekdays from 6-9am CT. Whitmer succeeds five-decade market icon Steve McIntosh following his recent retirement.

Whitmer is a veteran of Kansas politics, having served in key roles across local, state and national campaigns. In 2018, he joined KNSS as host of The John Whitmer Show.

“We are excited to welcome John Whitmer to the KNSS morning show alongside Ted Woodward,” said Tommy Castor, SVP/Market Manager, Audacy Wichita. “Woodward and Whit will build on the foundation of smart, local conversation that our listeners expect by delivering the essential news, candid analysis and enjoyable banter that starts the day right. This is a powerful pairing that promises to keep the Wichita community informed and engaged.”

Whitmer remarked, “I’m honored to join Ted Woodward on Woodward & Whit, stepping into the big shoes left by Steve McIntosh, who dedicated over 50 years to Wichita mornings. I look forward to bringing news coverage, straight talk, common-sense discussion and a little fun to help our community start the day on the right note.”
