After announcing last week that his time with KXNO was coming to a close, Program Director Andrew Downs is receiving a sendoff from the station’s hosts.
In a series of videos posted to X, formerly Twitter, station staff wished the outgoing Downs farewell as he embarks on a different career path, utilizing the hashtag #ThanksAD.
Downs announced his exit from the iHeartMedia Des Moines sports station last week, saying “I’ve made the difficult decision to leave KXnO after 15 years,” wrote Downs. “I’ll be forever grateful for the people I worked with and those who listened.”
He has served as the station’s program director since 2016 after originally joining the station in 2008 as a producer.
His final day with the station is Friday, with KXNO listeners being invited to a local brewery to wish Downs well.
