B.J. Shea

Classic Rock KZOK-FM/Seattle radio icon B.J. Shea will join the "B.J. & Sarah Mornings," beginning January 8, weekdays from 6-10am. Shea is inbound from crosstown KISW, where he served as the morning host for 17 years. He has been a fixture on Seattle radio since 1999. Co-host Sarah has been with KZOK since 2011, in the role she had beside Danny Bonaduce for the past 14 years when the duo was originally paired in Philadelphia.

"I am so humbled and excited to work for the best company in our business. This was indeed an elusive career bucket list item that I'm thrilled to check off," said Shea. "I love radio and I love Seattle, and I'm very grateful for the opportunity to keep entertaining the Puget Sound with Sarah, who is an amazing talent. We are gonna have so much fun."

"I have been part of KZOK with Danny Bonaduce for the past 12 years and thought, there's no way they'll find someone who can fill his shoes. No one who lives, eats, sleeps and breathes the Seattle area like that. But I was wrong," added Sarah. "I am so excited for the next chapter with Seattle radio legend B.J. Shea. We are going to have so much fun... once I've had several cups of coffee."

"The idea that after working with a legend like Danny Bonduce another one walks through the front door of iHeartMedia Seattle is just incredible. I have been a fan of B.J Shea for years and now to work beside him for the next chapter of KZOK is awesome," said KZOK Program Director Chris Sargent.

"I'm forever grateful to have gotten to work with Danny Bonaduce on KZOK, and I'm extremely excited to bring B.J. into our building to help with the next chapter on the legendary KZOK. He will join and help us reload the best morning shows in Seattle under one roof," commented iHeartMedia Seattle Senior Vice President of Programming Rich Moore.
