Audacy welcomes Jeetz as morning co-host for KGON-FM in Portland, OR. He'll join "Terry Boyd's World," weekdays from 5:30-9am PT, effective June 16. Jeetz spent the bulk of his career in various roles at sister KISW-FM in Seattle. He also served as Program Director for KZND in Anchorage, morning show producer for co-owend KHTP-FM (Hot 103.7) in Seattle, morning co-host for sister KXTE-FM (X107.5) in Las Vegas and afternoon host on Hubbard's KVRQ in Seattle.

"Jeetz has proven himself to be a tireless, fearless entertainer since we plucked him from the promotions street team and put him on KISW back in 2004," said Audacy Portland Senior VP/Market Manager Kim Martinez. "Terry has been a winner in Portland for years, and with his addition, we've put together a world-class team to take 'Terry Boyd's World' and this legendary brand to new heights."

"It's a beautiful day. From this great city, to this legendary classic rock station, to the staff, to the leadership, to the company, this gig checks so many best-case scenario boxes for me I literally couldn't have hand picked a better opportunity," added Jeetz. "Though what really got this deal done was they promised Remy Maxwell would DJ my kid's fifth birthday party. I'd like to thank Kim Martinez, Terry Boyd, Doug Abernethy, and especially Ryan Castle for always believing in me. PDX, let's get weird."
