Wenzel Ready To Drive Indy Home

• Isaac “Brooks” Wenzel has joined Cumulus Country WFMS/Indianapolis as MD and afternoon drive personality, starting Monday, Jan. 6. Christopher “Boomer” Layfield, PD of WFMS, said,” After an exhaustive nationwide search, Isaac really stood out as the ideal candidate for this position. His passion for Country music, relatable personality on the air and breadth of skills behind-the-scenes make Isaac ideally suited for this job. I look forward to celebrating his continued success with us at Cumulus and WFMS.”

Wenzel most recently worked for iHeartMedia in Madison, WI, doing middays on Country WMAD and Promotions Director for the six-station group until October. His previous stops include MD/afternoons on Family Radio Country KQYB (KQ98)/La Crosse, WI, weekends at WROC/Rochester, MN, APD at KQAL/Winona, MN and he broke into radio via his inaugural internship at iHeartMedia Sports-Talk KFXN (KFAN 100.3)/Minneapolis.

Wenzel remarked, “I feel extremely fortunate to have this opportunity to join a station with such long-lasting success in an amazing city like WFMS in Indianapolis. Thanks to Cumulus for giving me this incredible opportunity, particularly Doug Hamand, Chuck Fredrick and Boomer Layfield. I’m excited to meet our great listeners and hope to catch a couple of Pacers games soon!” The WFMS afternoon drive spot has been open since Jack Shell left in early November.
