KUPL/Portland Adds Local Morning Team
Port Cohort: Connoisseur KUPL/Portland, OR will replace the syndicated The Bobby Bones Show (CAT 11/19/25) with a local morning show featuring Jeff "JR" Ramsey, Jake Byron and Mallory Santic, debuting Jan. 20. Ramsey previously hosted Townsquare Media's Portland, ME-based national The Drive Home With JR, heard in about 20 markets, following prior radio jobs in Denver and Nashville. It's a return to KUPL for Byron, who spent 16 years there in mornings before cutbacks in 2020, re-joining in 2021 and hosting the noon-3pm shift until he was laid off again by former station owner Alpha Media in July (CAT 7/15/25). New to radio, Santic is a social media influencer and former Love Island contestant who previously worked as a Talent Acquisition Administrator for the South Australia Police in Adelaide.
