Time To Have That Conversation
• On Thursday morning, two morning shows on competing Greensboro radio stations will suspend their regular programming and join forces on the air to hold a vitally important conversation on race — Jared and Katie in the Morning on DBC Top 40 WKZL (107.5 KZL) and 3 Live Crew from Entercom Urban WJMH (102 JAMZ) will come together for a simulcast discussion on the murder of George Floyd, the resulting protests, the Black Lives Matter movement and related topics.
“It’s imperative that we have these uncomfortable conversations in order to have any comfort, moving forward,” said B-Dhat, who co-hosts 3 Live Crew on 102 JAMZ, alongside Drankins and Roxie. “It warmed my spirit when my radio brother, Jared, extended his olive branch to get a better understanding of our plight; we would be doing our community a disservice to not oblige. We look forward to a progressive & beneficial conversation!”
Katie, who along with Jared hosts Jared and Katie in the Morning with DBC VP of Programming Jason Goodman and “Man Kisser” Matt, commented, “We needed to join forces. If we are ever going to see real change, we have to come together for this kind of a conversation, whether we agree on everything or agree to disagree. This is an important conversation to have.” This groundbreaking conversation will air with no commercial interruptions beginning at 7:35am ET on both 1075 KZL and 102 JAMZ.
