Pros On The Loose
• Hubbard Radio’s KNUC (New Country 98.9 The Bull)/Seattle has parted ways with APD/MD/midday talent Wingnut. Brand Content Director Scott Mahalick is now actively seeking a successor.
Mr. Nut joined The Bull in May 2019, coming off a nine-year run as APD/MD/afternoon jock across the street at Audacy rival KKWF (100.7 The Wolf). Wingnut’s earlier radio stops include a couple of former Wolf outlets —KBWF (95.7 The Wolf)/San Francisco and KWOF (92.5 The Wolf)/Denver (where he also worked for Scott Mahalick) as well as KNTY/Sacramento.
As we speak, KNUC afternoon driver Bryan “B-Dub” Washington is now fielding music calls, while the station has now posted for a fulltime APD/midday host. Interested candidates can apply online. Wingnut is now reachable at Wingnutt@me.com.
• RAMP has confirmed that Scott Matthews has exited as PD of Lotus Classic Hits KTHI (107.1 K-Hits)/Boise, ID after four and a half years and is looking for his next opportunity.
Prior to arriving in Boise in 2017, Matthews programmed iHeartMedia Top 40 KAZX & Classic Hits KKFG-FM/Farmington, NM. Earlier OM/PD stops include Hutton Broadcasting in Santa Fe, NM and American General Media’s KPTE & KDGO/Durango, CO. Matthews has also been on-air at KIMN and KYGO/Denver, and his multi-format experience includes Triple A, Classic Hits, Top 40, Talk, Sports, Hot AC, and Country.
Matthews can be easily contacted at scott@scottmatthews.net or at openthemic@gmail.com.
