iHeartMedia WGY (News Radio 810 & 103.1)/Albany, NY taps Doug Goudie to join the morning show along with current co-host Kelly Lynch, weekdays from 5:30-9am, effective January 7. Goudie fills the vacancy created in December when former co-host Chuck Custer retired after more than 36 years with the News outlet.

"With Doug's rich experience as a recent midday talk host on iHeartMedia Boston's WRKO, TV Commentator on WFXT-TV and long-stint on The Howie Carr Radio Show, I'm confident that he will satisfy the expectations of WGY listeners for years to come," said News and Program Director Jeff Wolf. "The heart of what brings so many Capital Region listeners to WGY in the morning will remain unchanged. Doug and Kelly will both entertain and inform with meaningful conversations on the important local and national stories of the day but having fun will continue to be part of the show as well."

"I think our morning show listeners will really enjoy Doug," added Lynch. "He's genuine, smart, funny and an engaging storyteller. Plus, he's from the Northeast, so he's not afraid of snowstorms or dealing with me!"

"I am very much looking forward to working with Kelly and the rest of the talented team at one of the most iconic radio brands in America," said Goudie. "I cannot wait to get started."
