WBBM-FM (B96) in Chicago has announced a new weekday lineup, effective June 29. The station welcomes Dash (Jordan Orman-Weiss) as afternoon host, weekdays from 2-7pm CT. Dash joins B96 from Hubbard's crosstown WTMX, where he has been doing nights for the past three years. He also previously served as a Social Media Manager for Second City and air talent and Producer for WSHE-FM in Chicago.

"We are so thrilled to welcome Dash to the B96 family," said B96 Brand Manager Molly Cruz. "As a lifelong Chicagoan, Dash has an authentic love for his city and a deep appreciation of the legendary B96. This new chapter feels like a perfect fit."

"When my mother would let us take control of the radio dial growing up, we would always spin it down to B96," added Dash. "It was and still is the cool station. To be from Chicago and now get an afternoon show on a station I've grown up loving... I'm living my dream. Under the leadership and talent that are Molly Cruz and Greg Solk, I know we can create an electric afternoon show listeners won't want to miss."
