Jay Michaels Named PD of KGSR/Austin
Michaels commented, “Working with Bob & the people at Waterloo I’ve known & respected for many years is like coming home & an incredible opportunity where I started in radio — I’m ready! Being a family man and close to family, friends and one of the strongest companies in the country is an incredible opportunity that takes me home.”
Michaels heads south from Omaha, where he has worked for NRG Media since last October as PD of Hot AC KQKQ (Sweet 98.5), Rhythmic KOPW (Power 106.9) and Adult Hits KOOO (101.9 The Keg).
The move really is a homecoming for Michaels, who formerly programmed 93.3/Austin back when it was Sinclair-owned Rhythmic KDHT (Hot 93.3). His lengthy radio resume also includes stints in Dallas at KVIL and KJKK (100.3 Jack FM), as well as KDMX & KDGE. He has also worked at KHFI/Austin and KRBE/Houston. Earlier in his career Michaels worked for Sinclair as OM of WROX & WUSH/Norfolk, VA.
