"I've been a Jaxon fan for years, so I'm thrilled to welcome him to the iHeartMedia DC team," said Director of Rock Programming Dustin Matthews. "And as an avid football fan, he's the perfect match to join forces with the Washington Commanders. Jaxon brings a unique ability to engage our audience with storytelling and expert analysis about music and sports. I can't wait for him to rock the Nation's Capital with us every morning on the mighty BIG 100."

"I'm beyond thrilled to join the BIG 100 family," added Jaxon. "Huge thanks to Brad Hardin, James Howard, Dustin Matthews and Jeff Kapugi for helping me find the perfect spot on iHeart's roster of stellar talent. I look forward to waking up DC every morning, and I'm super excited about our relationship with the Washington Commanders. This is going to be fun, BIG fun."
