Midwest Communications has named Chris Carson host of the WIXX morning show in Green Bay.
Carson is an 18-year radio veteran who was born and raised in northwest Wisconsin. His most recent radio positions were at 101.9 WDEZ in Wausau and 99.5 Nash FM (WPKR) in Oshkosh.
Carson will be taking over for Murphy in the Morning, who concluded in his 32-year run on Nov. 28th.
“I’ve been listening to WIXX and the Murphy show since I was 10 years old,” Carson said. “To think that I will now host the show, is a dream come true. I have so much respect for WIXX and Midwest Communications and look forward to carrying on the winning tradition that is expected at 101 WIXX.”
“We’re confident Chris will be able to represent us well as the new era in WIXX morning radio begins,” said WIXX Brand Manager Corey Carter. “Chris is a good fit for our culture and the creative nature of our team”.
Long time Murphy show co-hosts Katie Schurk and Nick Vitrano have decided to leave the show as well. The station is seeking a co-host to join Carson.
