I’m Not Alone Anymore… I have A New Co-Host In The Mornings!
Welcome back to Country 102.5 Jonathan Wier!
I have been flying solo on “Country Mornings With Ayla Brown” for 356 days. Yup, you read that right. More than 8,000 hours on air by myself! Since coming back from maternity leave on October 26, 2022, I’ve been steering the morning show ship alone. But, that changed today when I officially welcomed Jonathan Wier back to the show as a co-host.
Jonathan And Ayla’s Last Show Was Last Year
The last time Jonathan and I were on air as a duo was on August 3rd, 2022. That was day I said goodbye to my friend and colleague. I walked out of the building and into motherhood. While I was on maternity leave, Jonathan took a little hiatus from the job. I came back to work after a 12-week maternity leave as the solo morning show host.
And let me be honest with you. In a lot of ways, it was the best year of my life. I grew so much as a radio personality because I was pushed and challenged every day. And I graduated from a co-host to a host position (that’s a big jump!) I enjoyed the call-in segments with the listeners and perfecting the art of “hosting.” It’s a year I will never forget, I want to thank my management for that incredible opportunity.
But I need to be honest. The entire time I was by myself I was desperate for in-studio conversations. I wanted to have discussions about current events, and make fun of “Florida Man,” and play games. My wish finally came true when management hired Jonathan Wier back to Country 102.5.
Jonathan’s A Pro In Radio
Jonathan’s journey to the mic wasn’t a typical one. The tale goes that his wife sneakily entered him into a radio talk show host search in 2004. Since then, he’s gone from being a newcomer to a nighttime sensation at KMBZ-FM in Kansas City and then a morning show co-host in Boston. Talk about an unexpected path to radio success!
Beasley Media Group’s Cadillac Jack said in the official press release, “Jonathan is a fantastic content creator with a proven track record in Boston.”
In the words of Jonathan himself: “I am beyond delighted to be rejoining Country 102.5 and working alongside Ayla Brown again.” And honestly, Jonathan, so am I!
Welcome Back Jonathan!
This was our first promo photo we ever took together! A lot has changed since then! I’m no longer blonde (at al!) and I haven’t seen Jonathan without a hat on since this photo was taken!
So, Bostonians, get your coffee mugs ready, and tune those radios. Whether you’re hitting the gym, commuting, or sneaking an extra five minutes under the duvet, make sure you’re locked into Country 102.5. It’s not just another morning radio show; it’s the morning radio show! As Jonathan aptly put it, he’s not just waking up in Boston, he’s waking up Boston!
Set your alarms and see you on the airwaves, Boston! Our new “Country Mornings with Jonathan and Ayla” is from 6-10am, Monday through Friday, only on Country 102.5!
