San Diego's Jagger and Kristi Celebrate 10 Years
RADIO ONLINE | Wednesday, August 5, 2015 |
Veteran radio personalities Jagger and Kristi are celebrating the 10-year on-air anniversary hosting mornings on Urban AC XHRM-FM (Magic 92.5)/San Diego. The duo are one of a few married morning radio teams in the country. The two met when paired for an afternoon show in San Diego in 1996. They married in 1997 and their success led them to wakeups in 2002. In 2005, the pair moved to Magic Mornings and "we are enjoying every minute of a decade at Magic."
"The best part of being at Magic 92.5 for a decade has been spending our mornings with our listeners and getting to know them," said Jagger. "Our Magic listeners are kind, funny and generous, and we cherish every moment we have with them. Plus, of course, working with my beautiful wife."
Jagger and Kristi, with the help of listeners, has helped to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for San Diego charities, including $17,000 this past December in a 14-hour broadcast marathon for the "Magic 92.5 Christmas Wish Foundation." Those funds are used to reward "Christmas Wish" gifts to help families in need over the holiday time.
Jagger and Kristi are dedicated animal lovers and work with local shelters to save orphaned animals by highlighting the need on-air during "Jagger & Kristi's Kritters." At home they live a happy, married life with their "Surf Dog" Bodie and Himalayan cat Sammy.
When asked how being married for 17 years and working so closely with your spouse is Kristi said, "it really works for us. We enjoy each other and enjoy communicating with people so it has always been a great fit. If there are difficult moments we move through them quickly and they are overshadowed by the fun we have on and off the air. We are very grateful to have spent the last ten years together with our Magic family."
Director of Programming Joe Lindsay added, "I have been with Jagger and Kristi since day one of their tenure here at Magic 92.5. They truly care about every listener, and go out of their way to build personal, one-on-one relationships with everyone they meet. In this competitive, ever-changing industry, staying on the same radio station in morning drive for ten straight years is a huge accomplishment. I am not surprised at their success. I am blessed to have been a part of it over the past ten years."
