KBKS-FM (106.1 Kiss FM)/Seattle will debut "The Jubal Show," starring Jubal, one of Seattle's most popular radio personalities and stand-up comedians. "The Jubal Show" will air weekday mornings from 6-10am and will begin in August. Previously he spent 10 years as co-host of the syndicated "Brooke and Jubal" show. He now returns to where it all began at 106.1 Kiss FM, where he spent the first several years of his career. Jubal will be joined by his wife, Alex Fresh, and additional hosts to be named at a later date.

"We couldn't be more excited to partner with Jubal on his next endeavor and welcome him to iHeartMedia Seattle," said iHeartMedia Seattle Market President Robert Dove. "Jubal's ability to cultivate a diverse fan base across America, but most importantly, right here in Seattle, was just something we could not miss. I'm excited to welcome him and Alex to the team."

"We are just trying to give the people what they want," added iHeartMedia Executive VP/Programming Maynard. "And they want Jubal."

In addition, Jubal has received an array of awards and accolades celebrating his on-air career, including the National Radio Hall of Fame "One to Watch" Award and the prestigious Marconi Award for "Large Market Personality of the Year."

"I'm going back to Kiss because when I left 10-years ago, I didn't get the chance to clean out my desk, and I just want my favorite pen back," said Jubal. "Oh, and also the amazing opportunity to work for, and with, the best in the business at iHeartMedia. I'm constantly trying to evolve and grow and find new innovative ways to entertain my audiences and iHeart is always on the cutting edge. This new chapter is going to be bananas. Plus, I get my pen back."
