Bryan Broadcasting News/Talk 1620 WTAW/94.5 K233DU College Station TX morning host Scott DeLucia will retire on Friday, June 5.

DeLucia originally joined the station in 1967 and served as Program Director throughout much of the 1970s. After a hiatus, he returned to WTAW in 1983 and became part of “The Infomaniacs” when the station flipped to Talk in 1990. He told listeners this morning, “It’s been the tradition of the show generally that when one of us leaves to go do something different or not do anything at all we kind of announce it ahead of time. And so today it’s my turn. I figure if I’ve done it for 59 years it’s probably enough”, adding “everything’s fine, my health is fine, my wife’s health is fine, we’re just deciding that it’s time to go enjoy the rest of our life that won’t include getting up at 4:20 in the morning. So we’re going to do that.”
