“The Star Morning Show with Skip and Kristen” launched August 26 on Pillar Media’s three Christian AC stations. Hosted by Skip Mahaffey and Kristen James, it can now be heard on WAKW (Star 93.3)/Cincinnati, WAWZ (Star 99.1)/Zarepath, NJ, and KSRC (Star 101.5)/Denver.
Matt Stockman, Pillar Media Brand Director, said, “Skip Mahaffey and Kristen James are very talented communicators, and both have been invaluable in growing our STAR brand. Bringing them together to do a morning show? Yes, please! I am really excited to hear them bringing meaningful, relevant, and local content to each of our STAR markets!”
Hope Media’s “Brant Hanson Show,” previously heard in mornings, will move to midday on WAKW and WAWZ and nights on KSRC.
James, who has been with Pillar Media her entire career, commented, “I’m so thrilled to be returning to mornings in NY/NJ and cannot wait to be able to connect with our Cincy audience in this new time slot! Working with Skip is the MOST fun, and we’ve been having a blast doing mornings together in Denver. I cannot wait to see how God uses us to be a blessing on all of our STAR stations! God is good, and we’re so privileged to be able to share that message with so many people!”
Mahaffey, who joined the company last October as Director of Programming Operations from Educational Media Foundation’s “K-Love,” added, “What she said. I haven’t had this much fun on the radio in years.”
