Entercom Country “99.5 The Wolf” KWJJ Portland has cut ties with longtime morning hosts Mikel Chase and Amy Faust.
Mike & Amy hosted mornings at KWJJ from 1999-2012 and then returned in 2014. Prior to joining KWJJ, Chase worked at KKRZ and KNRK in the Portland market and KDON Monterey CA. During that gap between KWJJ stints he co-hosted mornings at Capitol Broadcasting AC “Mix 101.5” WRAL-FM Raleigh. Faust worked in television prior to joining KWJJ and worked on the show Portlandia during their hiatus.
Chase and Faust are the second morning show to exit Entercom Portland in recent weeks as Buck Wise quietly exited Hot AC “105.1 The Buzz” KRSK at the end of August. Wise joined KRSK in October 2018 after a five year hiatus from radio. As ‘Buck Head’ he hosted mornings at CHR “98.7 Amp Radio” WDZH Detroit and “Z100” KKRZ Portland and worked at KYSR Los Angeles, WKQI Detroit, and KFMS Las Vegas.
