99X morning host Leslie Fram has departed her role at the Cumulus Atlanta alternative station.
She rejoined the station in 2023 after the station relaunched as 99X. She was paired with Steve Barnes for The Morning X with Barnes and Leslie.
Previously, the duo helmed mornings at the original iteration of the station from 1994 to 2003. Crash Clark, who joined the morning show as a traffic reporter in 2024, has replaced Fram on the program. It is now labeled as The Morning X with Barnes & Crash.
Between stints at the station, Leslie Fram worked as the Senior Vice President of Music and Talent at cable channel CMT. She served as the executive producer of projects like the CMT Music Awards and helped book shows like CMT Crossroads and Storytellers during her tenure.
After departing CMT, Fram launched a consulting firm, FEMco (Fram Entertainment & Music Company). It is focused on booking, production, artist development, and creating business-to-business connections in the Nashville music space.
