Laura Lee will join 105.7 WAPL in Appleton as a morning show co-host. She will debut on Sept. 23.
Lee comes to WAPL most recently from Columbus, Ohio, with an earlier radio stint in Milwaukee.
“I’m excited to have someone join me who can help propel this legendary radio station into the future,” said morning show co-host Cutter. “Laura embodies the spirit of WAPL; she knows the music and understands our listeners. Plus, she’s willing to put up with me, which is a great start!”
“I’m glad I never got rid of my 32 once truckers mega-mug for coffee last time I did mornings,” Lee said. “I haven’t had to wake up this early in a long time but I’m incredibly pumped to be joining the famed WAPL and looking forward to teaming up with Cutter for a new era of WAPL mornings. He knows the market, the audience loves him and he’s a pretty pleasant individual even at 5 a.m. in the morning.”
Brand Manager Joe Marroe said, “Laura truly lives the WAPL lifestyle. She’s passionate about concerts, hockey, and football—though we’re hoping to convert her allegiance from the Vikings! With the innovative ideas Laura and Cutter are bringing to the table, I can’t wait to see what unfolds on the air.”
Woodward Community Media General Manager Kelly Radandt said. “For the last 35 years, I’ve loved 105.7 WAPL because of our dedicated team members like Rick, Len, Cutter, John, Ross, Karla, Roxanne, and many more. I’m looking forward to continuing that tradition with Laura Lee, ensuring we keep providing our listeners with kick-ass rock music and meaningful connections.”
Previous co-host Rick McNeal retired earlier this year for health reasons.
