LAZER 103.3 morning host Mike Wickett has announced he’ll be departing the Saga Des Moines rock station at the end of the month.
Wickett is co-host of Heather & Wickett from 5:30-10 AM on the station. He’s been there for the past five years.
In a post on social media, Wickett announced that Tuesday, March 31st will be his final day with LAZER 103.3.
“THANK YOU to every LAZER Hellraiser for welcoming this White Claw-drinking, sports nerd, father of 3 into your mornings the last 5 years,” he wrote. “Local radio is truly special, especially in a city like Des Moines, Iowa and at a station that’s been around for 30 years. I knew this was a special community at the 2021 Limp Bizkit show when a LAZER listener skipped up to me & said, ‘Welcome to the LAZER family, Wickett’ and then skipped away.”
Mike Wickett also thanked his co-host, Heather Lee, “for putting up with me for the last 5 years.”
“Working with you has been amazing. What I’ve learned from you is invaluable and I’ll carry those lessons with me for the rest of my career,” he said of his co-host. “You’re the most creative person I’ve ever met…and the strangest one to. Keep being a rockstar.”
Wickett concluded by stating that he looks forward to sharing what’s next in his career in the near future.
