Q99.7/Atlanta Launches ‘Kristin Show’ In PM Drive
• Cumulus Top 40 WWWQ (Q99.7)/Atlanta, which has been “updating” for the past week, announced the launch of new afternoon drive show hosted by popular Atlanta on-air personality, Kristin Klingshirn, the former longtime co-host of the syndicated The Bert Show, which ended its 25-year run last October.
The Kristin Show will air weekdays from 2-7pm ET, beginning Monday, Jan. 26. “When The Bert Showconcluded, I was far from done with Atlanta radio,” Klingshirn said. “And it turns out, Atlanta radio was far from done with me. I’m thrilled to be continuing my radio career on Q99.7 — this time as a host! We will be unveiling my co-host very soon, so stay tuned.”
Justin Schaflander, VP/Market Manager, Cumulus Atlanta, remarked, “Kristin’s return to Q99.7 marks the first of many exciting moves as we begin a powerful new chapter for this heritage Atlanta brand. Her passion for this city and her commitment to using her platform for good are exactly what Q99.7 stands for. Kristin has spent more than two decades earning the trust, laughter, and loyalty of Atlanta listeners. She now steps into afternoons with a voice and purpose that resonate deeply with this community. We are thrilled to launch The Kristin Show as the opening step in the evolution of Q99.7, and there is so much more to come.”
Klingshirn joined The Bert Show as co-host in 2011. The show was later heard in over 20 markets and ran for 25 years before ending in October 2025, when Bert Weiss retired. Klingshirn was honored with a prestigious Gracie Award in 2025 for her work as a co-host on the show and recognizing her contributions to issues impacting women and mothers. She started her radio career in Lexington, KY, Cincinnati, and Raleigh, NC, before landing in Atlanta.
Klingshirn added, “Our mission is to bring lots of laughter to your afternoons while using our platform to help our communities. That includes the continuing support of Bert’s Big Adventure! What’s the point of having a voice if you don’t use it for good? Can’t wait to be back on the air this coming Monday!”
You are also advised to stay tuned for a Q99.7 morning show announcement soon.
