With Dom Testa moving to sister Classic Hits “Kool 105” KXKL, KSE Media Hot AC “Mix 100” KIMN Denver is revamping its lineup starting Tuesday, October 1.
Program Director/afternoon host Steve Marshall will move to mornings to join incumbent co-host Jeremy Padgett and producer Josh Griesemer for “The Boys in the Morning”. Marshall joined KIMN in April 2017 after previously programming KVYB Santa Barbara CA, Production & Imaging Director for Cumulus Media Detroit, Operations Manager of Latitude Media Mount Pleasant MI, and PD of WWWM and WTWR Toledo.
Padgett has been with KIMN since 2004 rising from producer to morning co-host. Griesemer joined the company in 2018 and has served as morning show producer at KIMN since April 2020.
Marshall said, “I’m beyond excited to join The Boys in the Morning. I’ve loved every minute of my time at Mix 100. I can’t wait to bring the same energy and passion to the morning show. It’s going to be a great ride!”
Padgett added, “Having Steve on board is going to bring a fresh and exciting dimension to our show. We’ve got some fantastic plans for The Boys in the Morning. We can’t wait for our listeners to experience it all.”
Katy Mitchel continues in middays with her shift expanded to 10am to 3pm. Current 2-4pm host Nina Blanco will move to afternoon drive from 3-7pm. Both joined Mix 100’s weekday lineup in April 2023. Mitchel previously hosted weekends and fill-ins at KIMN and KXKL. She began her career at Lincoln Financial Media Denver and has also worked in Jamestown ND, and Montrose and Grand Junction CO. Blanco previously co-hosted mornings at iHeartMedia CHR “95.7 The Party” KPTT and worked in multiple dayparts at Max Media Hip Hop “Flo 107.1” KFCO in the market. She previously hosted nights and mornings at CHR “Now 96.3” KNOU St. Louis and nights at 101.5 WCIL-FM Carbondale IL.
“This is a seismic shakeup of our lineups at Mix 100,” said Dave Fleck, KSE Radio Senior Vice President & General Manager. “We’re blessed to have so many talented hosts within our station group. We believe that shaking up these lineups will make our music stations stronger and give our Denver listeners some truly revitalized options.”
