“Mornings has been my goal since I was 10 years old.” Huggie said. “If not now, when? This is the perfect time to jump on it and love the team we’ve assembled.”
Natalie Kay, a Wisconsin native, comes from Milwaukee where she’s had a 10-year run at 102.9, WHQG. Kay’s experience in Milwaukee included being a solo host as well as co-host in afternoon drive. WIXX said her dedication to give back to the community resonates with people who appreciate her authenticity both on and off air.

“From reality TV, to exclusive artist interviews, to being the Director of community engagement and execution with Spearhead Conversations, all while juggling the responsibilities of motherhood, Natalie is a true force to be reckoned with,” the release said.
“I am beyond thrilled to embark on this exciting journey with the legendary WIXX., “Kay said. “Joining the new morning show is not just a career milestone; it’s an opportunity to connect with the vibrant community, share laughs, and bring a fresh wave of entertainment to your mornings. Get ready for a lot of fun as we make each day brighter together.”
Corey Carter will also join the morning team. Carter has been the Brand Manager and on-air talent at WIXX for 13 years. “Natalie is a star – we knew it from the moment we met her,” Carter said. “She’s bold, kind, bubbly, smart and not afraid to ‘dish it out.’ We’re confident her outgoing, friendly attitude will quickly make her a favorite of WIXX listeners.”
