"We're excited to add Josh to our local lineup," said ESPN 97.5 General Manager Todd Farquharson. "He certainly has a following which will definitely bring new listeners to the station, and new advertisers."

Program Director and show host A.J. Hoffman added, "I've long respected Josh as a talented broadcaster. Being able to add him to our lineup in a time where every station is looking for an edge is a huge victory for KFNC."

Innes commented, "I'm thrilled to be back on the air in Houston. KFNC has a talented roster of personalities and I'm looking forward to working with everyone. I thank David Gow, Todd and A.J. for giving me this opportunity. I'm looking forward to winning with these guys."
