Pacific Media Group (PMG) returns of comedian, TV host and actor Lanai to Honolulu radio on 94.7 KUMU-FM. "Lanai's Traffic Jam" will air every weekday from 2-7pm, beginning Monday, March 7. He started in radio in Honolulu in 1986 when he was just 16 years old. His experience extends to radio shows in Tokyo and Fukuoka, Japan, the podcast "It's a Hawaii Thing," Food Networks' "Great Food Truck Race" and most recently as Jake in season 6 of "Hawaii 5-0."

KUMU-FM Program Director Kelsey "K-Smooth" Yogi said, "We worked together in the past, and bringing him to the station was an easy call. Lanai is committed to entertain and support the people of Oahu. His hiring is a great opportunity to do more for our community. He has the star power to complete the new on-air lineup on 94.7 KUMU."

"As a proud member of this community, the decision to join the Pacific Media Group ohana was easy and I'm excited to return to Honolulu radio on 94.7 KUMU. I get to play music by many of the artists and songs I helped debut back in the day," added Lanai. "Radio provides a direct and interactive connection with the audience at home, at work and at play. There's nothing else like it."
