Longtime Dallas morning personality Jim White will retire from the “Bo & Jim Show” at iHeartMedia Classic Rock “Lone Star 92.5” KZPS on Friday, July 22.
White and Bo Roberts hosted mornings at “Q102” KTXQ from 1982 until the station’s demise in 1997. They first joined KZPS as afternoon hosts from 1998 to 2001, before returning as morning hosts in 2004. Prior to KTXQ, White began his career in South Bend IN at WJVA and WRBR and later worked at WRNO New Orleans before joining KTXQ as evening host prior to his move to mornings with Roberts.
As part of a letter to the audience on the station’s website, White writes, “Waking up at 1:30 AM, see BO at 2:45 AM. Both of us still shaking off the Sandman trying to find anything that was funny or interesting to tell you about. Even if there wasn’t anything in the news I knew I could say something offhanded and BO would always turn that into something hilarious. He is the most creative and funniest guy I have ever known. He always surprises me with some Corsicana witism that would crack me up, even after 45 years!I love him like a brother. And, we couldn’t do what we do without my other brother, the dynamo, producer, musician and great human being Randy James. Bo says I’m going to miss it. I will miss it. I will miss you…I will miss our fun and laughter in the morning, our blood drive broadcast and meeting our wonderful listeners who have been with us since 1982. ”
Roberts and longtime producer/co-host Randy James will remain in mornings.
