93Q Country in Houston has parted ways with midday host Gerardo Sproet, and the station is already hunting for his replacement.
Sproet was a homegrown talent. The Houston native joined KKBQ’s promotions department in 2019 and worked his way on-air by 2022.
He earned an evening slot in July 2023, then moved to middays in January 2025. He filled a gap left by Corey Dillon, who departed in October 2024 after three and a half years.
93Q wasted no time posting a job listing. The station wants someone “fun, compelling, talented, professional” who understands “how to create great radio in a PPM-friendly environment.” That’s a tall order — but a clear one.
Sproet addressed his exit on Facebook. Listeners responded quickly, with many expressing surprise at the news.
KKBQ broadcasts on 92.9 FM and serves Greater Houston under its Houston’s Country Leader brand. Urban One owns the station. It has earned multiple ACM Radio Station of the Year honors, making it one of the market’s most decorated outlets.
