Townsquare Media has made some on-air changes at its Kalamazoo MI cluster.
Dave Benson and Bobby Guy debuted in mornings today at Classic Rock 107.7 WRKR Portage. The duo have both been established in the market for decades. Benson joins WRKR after 34 years in afternoons at Townsquare CHR 103.3 WKFR. Guy moves from afternoons at WRKR and has previously served as PD/morning host at Country “Kalamazoo Country 102.5” W273AR and worked on-air at “Win 98.5” WNWN-FM. Townsquare’s Regional Digital Strategist Eric Meier has succeeded Guy in afternoons at WRKR.
Benson and Guy replace Jerry ‘JT’ Tarrants and Stephani Bishop in mornings. Tarrants had joined the station in September 2020 as Director of Content for Townsquare Kalamazoo and PD/morning host at WRKR. Bishop had co-hosted mornings at WRKR since 2012 mostly alongside Mike McKelly until his retirement ahead of Tarrant’s hiring.
