After decades on the air, KZZU-FM/Spokane morning hosts "Dave, Ken and Molly" were ousted on Thursday after their program was canceled as part of corporate restructuring at the Hot AC outlet. Also out is co-owned News/Talk KXLY 920 News Now's morning show.

"We are restructuring operations to reflect current economic conditions while maintaining our commitment to our loyal listeners, partners, and community into the future," said Morgan Murphy Media VP of Radio Tery Garras in a statement.

In a Facebook post, Molly Allen confirmed the trio did not know it was their last time on the air. "Confirming that yesterday was the last 'Dave, Ken and Molly' show. I'm sorry that we didn't get to say goodbye to you all. Spokane has been so good to us. Obviously, this was not our decision. Thank you for over 30 years of love and support."

"As most of you probably know, our radio show... Dave, Ken and Molly... Was eliminated yesterday... Thank you to all of you that were our morning family for 30 plus years... We were and have been the top rated show in the market that we love... We always enjoyed our morning chats... But the best part was connecting with so many of you that listened... And being able to help out in so many local causes... This has been my professional life and I have loved it," wrote Dave Sposito on Facebook.
