iHeartMedia Conservative Talk 1130 WISN Milwaukee has announced its new lineup starting Friday, January 2.
Current 9-11am host Benjamin Yount will move to morning drive from 6-9am succeeding Jay Weber, who is moving to a podcasting role. Yount moved into the late morning slot at the start of this year after serving as News Director and primary fill-in host since joining the station in 2020 from WRPW Bloomington IL.
Yount said, “WISN has always been about serving Wisconsin with smart, honest conversation, and I’m honored to take on morning drive. Our listeners count on us to start their day informed and engaged, and I’m excited to continue that in a new time slot while keeping the same commitment to strong local coverage.”
Jason Goch will take over the late morning slot from 9-11am and anchor news during Yount’s morning show. Goch has held on-air roles in Talk and Sports including SB Nation Radio, Illinois Radio Network, and “87.7 The Game” Chicago. He has served as a fill-in host at WISN as well.
Goch commented, “WISN is one of the most respected talk stations in the country, and I’m thrilled to join the lineup. Midday is a great opportunity to connect with listeners on the issues that matter most, and I’m excited to contribute both on the air and in supporting WISN’s live, local mornings.”
Program Director Jerry Bott stated, ““This lineup builds on WISN’s momentum and reflects our focus on serving listeners with strong, credible voices throughout the day. Benjamin has earned the trust of our audience and brings proven ratings success to morning drive, while Jason is a terrific addition whose experience and versatility strengthen our local programming bench.”
