KILT's Cowboy Dave Exits:
Audacy KILT/Houston morning co-host "Cowboy Dave" Bayless has exited after 12 years with the station. He initially joined as morning show producer, moved to nights in 2014 (CAT 4/23/14), then joined the current Morning Bull as co-host upon its launch in 2015 (CAT 3/5/15). "Calling a radio station like KILT home for as long as I did, I'm the luckiest radio guy in a cowboy hat and boots," says Bayless. His prior stops include KLBL/Tyler, TX; KYKX/Longview, TX; and KNTY/Sacramento. Reach him at 713-878-4196 or here. Details on the search for a replacement will be announced soon.
