Slater's Gonna Slate: Cox WWKA/Orlando morning co-host/producer/midday personality Zakk Slater (a.k.a. Michael Wheaton) has been named afternoon personality. He succeeds AJ Maguire, who departed last month (CAT 9/9). "Our listeners deserve the ultimate afternoon experience that is second to none, and I won't stop until that's what they receive," says Slater. He has been with the morning team since 2016. Prior stops include WHKO/Dayton, OH; WOTW/Orlando; Top 40 WEZF/Burlington, VT and Top 40 KOYY/Fargo, ND. Reach him here.
Additionally, night host Melissa Quinones – who had handled afternoons on an interim basis following Maguire's departure – has been named midday personality succeeding Slater. Reach her here. Country sister WNGC/Athens, GA morning host Macie Banks will now track nights for WWKA and can be reached here. "We are thrilled to make these moves on [WWKA] and to position the station for continued growth and success," says PD Steve Stewart.
