A game of musical chairs is taking place amongst on-air talent at three stations in Los Angeles.
‘DJ Eddie One’ Mendoza departed as APD/afternoon host at Meruelo Media Bilingual Rhythmic “Cali 93.9” KLLI just shy of two years at the station last Friday and returned to his previous home in afternoons at SBS’ Spanish CHR “Mega 96.3” KXOL. Mendoza joined KLLI in September 2019 after previously spending fourteen years at KXOL. He has also served as a mixer for Sirius from 2001 to 2005 and 102.7 KIIS-FM in 2005 and 2006.
To fill his spot at KLLI, Melissa Rios has moved from the morning show at Meruelo’s Rhythmic CHR “Power 106” KPWR. Rios had joined KPWR at the launch of “Nick Cannon Mornings” in June 2019 following six years at KXOL in mornings.
Rios is still listed as co-hosting “Power 106 Mornings” with Teddy Mora and DJ Carisma that debuted following the station shifting Nick Cannon to middays earlier this month. We have confirmed she is off the morning show now as is Carisma, who has moved to a weekend on-air and mixing slot. Mora continues in the slot this week joined by Demi Lobo, Noah Ayala and producer Noor Wahba.
