KS95 Program Director Mat Mitchell has exited the Hubbard Radio Minneapolis Hot AC station, with Chris Eagan set to handle the duties in the interim.

He joined the station after previously working at iHeartMedia Phoenix, where he has programmed 95.5 The Mountain, Mix 96.9, and 104.7 KISS-FM. He led those stations for seven years before departing for KS95.

Other stops in his career include time spent in Houston, Kansas City, Miami, Milwaukee, and Wichita.

In the 2024 Barrett Media Top 20 Hot AC Program Directors, Mitchell was voted to the 11th place on the list.

On an interim basis, Chris Eagan — who serves as the Vice President of Programming and Content for Hubbard Radio’s 101.9 The Mix and Throwback 100.3 in Chicago — will handle the programming dutes for KS95 until a permanent leader is found.
