Q99.7 in Atlanta will debut a new afternoon drive program hosted by Kristin Klingshirn.
The Kristin Show will air Monday through Friday from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., beginning Monday, January 26. Klingshirn shared the news with Q99.7 listeners on-air and through the station’s social media platforms.
Klingshirn joined The Bert Show as a co-host in 2011. The program was later syndicated to more than 20 markets nationwide and concluded in October 2025 following Bert Weiss’ retirement. During her time on the show, Klingshirn received a Gracie Award in 2025, recognizing her work and focus on issues impacting women and mothers.
Her radio career began in promotions and on-air roles in Lexington, Cincinnati, and Raleigh before she arrived in Atlanta.
“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,” Cumulus Atlanta Vice President and Market Manager Justin Schaflander said. “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.”
“When The Bert Show concluded, I was far from done with Atlanta radio,” Kristin Klingshirn said. “And 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. “Our mission is to bring lots of laughter to your afternoons while using our platform to help our communities,” Klingshirn added.
“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!”
