After more than a decade hosting a weekend show on KFI-AM 640, Dr. Wendy Walsh has exited the iHeartMedia Los Angeles news/talk station.
Sunday was Walsh’s final show on the station. In a post on social media, Walsh shared that she was exiting her timeslot on the station “due to corporate budget cuts and layoffs.”
“For more than a decade, it has been my honor to share the science of love and interpersonal connections with you,” said Walsh. “Producer Kayla and I have enjoyed your calls and feedback, as well as sharing our enthusiasm for science-backed strategies for better human relationships. There is no more important time for us all to care about each other. The isolation epidemic is real. The fracture of the family has had a profound impact on mental health, and encroaching AI is causing delusions and misplaced attachments.”
The Dr. Wendy Walsh Show aired from 7-9 PM on the station. She shared that she’ll continue to offer her thoughts on love, dating, relationships, and everything in between on her social media channels.
It is unclear what programming will be inserted into the KFI-AM 640 lineup following Walsh’s departure.
