iHeartMedia CHR 101.3 KDWB Richfield/Minneapolis MN is making more lineup changes.
Morning co-host Falen Bonsett will move off the Dave Ryan Show in mornings to co-host afternoons from 2-6pm with Zach Dillon starting this afternoon. Bonsett has been with KDWB since 2012 after previously working at WDKS and WSTO Evansville IN and KWYL Reno. Dillon has been with KDWB since 2016 and also serves as APD/MD of the station. Ryan, Jenny Luttenberger, and Drake Webb continue in mornings.
The change on the same day as Vont Leak joining the station as evening host succeeding new KZHT Salt Lake City morning host E. White. Premiere Networks’ “On Air with Ryan Seacrest” remains in middays.
101.3 KDWB, the Twin Cities #1 Hit Music Station, announced today the debut of the new Falen and Zach Show, effective immediately. The Falen and Zach Show will broadcast weekdays from 2p-6p.
The Falen and Zach Show will feature Falen’s signature open book style and share her life on-air as she’s been doing for years as part of the Dave Ryan Show. Zach will continue to connect with the afternoon audience that already knows and loves his quick wit and local stories about what’s hot and happening in the Twin Cities.
“I could not be more excited to launch the Falen and Zach Show. I’ve grown so in love with the community here over the last 12 years, I’m thrilled to work with Zach and connect with a new audience in the Twin Cities,” said Falen, 101.3 KDWB On-Air Host.
Zach Dillion, 101.3 KDWB On-Air Host, adds, “The last seven plus years doing afternoon drive on 101.3 KDWB has been the greatest years of my career. Growing the show to where it is now, has been incredible! Now, with the evolution of the Falen and Zach Show, it’ll be even better, here we go!”
“The ability to partner two of my best air talents in afternoon drive is a huge opportunity for 101.3 KDWB. Falen has more than proven herself in the nearly 12 years since I hired her for the Dave Ryan Show. She is beloved in the Twin Cities for her humor and candor; adding her personality with Zach will be fun to listen to. Zach’s been my afternoon guy and right-hand man since 2016 and is consistently one of our highest-rated personalities. With his background doing morning radio, he’s the perfect person to join Falen on the weekday ride home,” said Rich Davis, 101.3 KDWB Program Director.
