KTTS/Springfield Morning Host Jay Fotsch To Depart Radio

Ozark Adieu: SummitMedia KTTS/Springfield, MO morning host Jay Fotsch will depart his Fotsch & Friends show Friday (8/15) to focus on an unspecified "new project." Fotsch and co-host Chelsea Banner moved to KTTS from mornings at Top 40 sister KSPW last year (CAT 2/12/24); Banner remains in mornings. In a social media post, Fotsch said, "After 25 incredible years of waking up with you on Power 96.5 and 94.7 KTTS, it’s time for me to sign off ... It’s hard to put into words what these years have meant to me." The Springfield Cardinals will host his “Radio Retirement” party Aug. 14. No word yet on plans for the position.
