After more than five decades in the business, including the last 17 years at 1250 WTMA, morning host and Program Director John Quincy has announced his retirement.
Quincy has worked in the Charleston, South Carolina market since 1981, previously working as an afternoon host at CHR and AC stations in the market before shifting to country and oldies. He joined 1250 WTMA in 2007 where he has helmed mornings and served as the station’s program director
“Retired! Today was my last day at WTMA and Cumulus Media Charleston,” Quincy revealed in a post on social media Wednesday. “That puts a cap on a 52-year career in radio, and almost 23 years at Citadel Broadcasting/Cumulus Media. I see plenty more sleep in my future. Please pray for my wife who’ll have to put up with me around the house full time.”
The TMA Morning Show was the only local program airing on weekdays on the Cumulus Media Charleston station. It was not immediately made available what the station will air in the 7-9 AM window where the show hosted by John Quincy was previously heard.
