Audacy Cuts Include Thunder, McDonel
Audacy Cuts: Among those affected by this week's round of downsizing at Audacy are KMNB/Minneapolis morning co-host Greg Thunder and KFRG/Riverside, CA PM drive traffic reporter and weekend air talent Vicki "Pepper" McDonel. Thunder joined KMNB from crosstown Hot AC KTCZ in 2018 (CAT 12/3/18). Paul "PT" Thomas is now hosting mornings solo. McDonel, a 13-year KFRG veteran, also handled the station's public affairs program until last month. Reach her here.
