Audacy has announced a new weekday programming lineup for WDZH-FM (ALT 98.7) in Detroit. The Alternative outlet will air "The Julia Show" with market native Julia Lepidi (pictured) from 6-10am ET. The new lineup will also include Ian Camfield in middays (10am-3pm), Brady in afternoons (3-7pm) and Kevan Kenney in nights (7-11pm).

"I'm so excited to be writing the next chapter of ALT 98.7 in Detroit alongside Julia and all of our passionate air talent, and I'm grateful to Dave Richards, Debbie Kenyon and Tim Roberts for the leadership and support," said Audacy Vice President of Regional Programming Christine Malovetz.

"Hosting my own morning show in my hometown and on the frequency I got my start on in this industry is a surreal moment. I'm elated," added Lepidi. "Thank you to Dave Richards, Christine Malovetz, Debbie Kenyon and Tim Roberts for the opportunity."

Lepidi got her start on 98.7 in Detroit in 2012, working in promotions while it was known as AMP Radio. After a three year run of hosting nights, she was promoted to mornings in 2018. When the station flipped formats, she went on to host nights on WBBM-FM (B96) in Chicago, where she currently hosts afternoons. "The Julia Show" is heard in 15 markets including Phoenix, Miami, Philadelphia, Chicago, Las Vegas and more.
