Audacy Boston inks multi-year contract extensions with WWBX-FM (Mix 104.1) morning co-hosts Karson Tager and Kennedy Elsey. The duo are heard on weekdays from 5:30-10am ET. Kennedy grew up in suburban Chicago and graduated from Drake University with a double major in Theater and Psychology. Her career brought her to Boston by way of Tucson, Tallahassee and Memphis. Karson is a veteran who served as an airborne Paratrooper in the U.S. Army Signal Corps.

"In December 2008, my wife and I drove into Boston with Kennedy," said Karson. "We had no winter coats, and I had a head full of hair. 16 years later, I'm bald but can finally afford a good winter jacket. God and life are good. We're also very grateful to the entire team behind the scenes for their support."

"I came to Boston with two cats and my two friends excited (and terrified) for something new," added Kennedy. "The cats ran away, but Karson and Lana stuck with me through thick and thin. We are honored to make you laugh every morning. It's a gift I get to open every day, and I'm so grateful."
