Conservative Talk KNRS-FM in Salt Lake City debuts the new "Rod and Greg Show," effective immediately. The show joins the lineup of Glenn Beck, Clay Travis & Buck Sexton, Sean Hannity, Rod Arquette and Jesse Kelly. The Rod Arquette Show will conclude its 14-year run with the last show airing Friday, August 2. On August 5 begins in Utah as Arquette's Wingman Wednesday co-host, "Citizen" Greg Hughes, joins him for the inaugural flight of the "Rod and Greg Show, weekdays from 4-7pm.

With a career in TV and radio, Arquette has been in front of the camera and behind the microphone, leading the market's top stations in news production, reporting, anchoring, hosting, programming and in senior executive roles.

Greg Hughes joins Arquette in a full-time co-host role. The former Utah state lawmaker, Speaker of the Utah House and one time candidate for Governor, has been a frequent contributor, guest host and weekly co-host on the "Rod Arquette" show since 2018.

"Greg has been a passionate contributor of political commentary in Utah on TV and radio dating back to 2012. His experience and background in public service and public policy allows him to pull back the curtain on what's really happening in Utah and national politics," said Arquette. "Our goal is to bring common sense and fair mindedness to the issues that are impacting Utah families in an entertaining and informative way."

"I am beyond grateful and excited to join 105.9 KNRS and the iHeartRadio family. I am especially excited, to partner with Rod every day to inform and entertain the greatest listening audience in Utah," added Hughes. "We are living in uncertain, but historic times. There is a real need for thought leaders today who can reach out and dialogue with public servants, business, and community leaders but most importantly, with everyday Utahns. The Rod and Greg Show will be the place where that happens.. and then some. I'm ready to go."
