Following the addition of new Program Director Scott Mahalick and the Fitz Show for mornings earlier this week, Hubbard Country “98.9 The Bull” KNUC Seattle had intended to round out its on-air lineup by moving afternoon host Corey Dillon to middays and morning host Tim Leary to afternoons.

Now Leary has announced that he has turned down the daypart switch and will instead exit the station to pursue other opportunities. He joins former Program Director Lisa Adams and morning co-host Karen ‘Red’ Daiss in exiting KNUC, while co-host Claire Beverly will join The Fitz Show.

Leary, Beverly and Daiss joined KNUC from mornings at Dick Broadcasting Country “Bob 106.9” WUBB Bluffton SC/Savannah GA in early 2018. Leary has been with WUBB since 2011 and has also worked at 99.5 WGAR Cleveland, 98.1 WCTK Providence RI, and 94.5 KUUB Reno during his career. He previously hosted the syndicated 20Twenty Country Countdown.
