Jesse Garon is back on the air in South Central Wisconsin, joining Magnum Media's 107.3 WSJY in Madison as AC outlet's new midday host. Garon most recently served as morning host for crosstown Audacy Classic Hits WOLX-FM. He had been with WOLX since 2015, previously serving as evening host. Garon has a long career in Wisconsin radio, having also worked at WMMM (Triple M) and starting in Wisconsin with Magnum Media in 2013.

"This doesn't just feel like coming home, it's an actual homecoming," said Garon. "Dave Magnum is the one who first gave me my start in Wisconsin radio back in 2013, before I'd ever worked anywhere else in the state. To now be back with Magnum Media, re-joining my former co-workers, is life coming full circle. WSJY is in Christmas programming and the biggest gift for me this year is to be back on the air here in South Central Wisconsin."

Magnum Media founder Dave Magnum welcomed Garon's return, noting both his professional success and personal character. "We missed Jesse while we had to compete with him, but at the same time, we were proud of all the ratings success he achieved in Madison radio as a Music Director and ultimately doing mornings," Magnum said.

He added, "Jesse is what I call a very human being. His warmth and compassion is authentic. Coupled with his community service spirit, he's become a well-known and trusted radio friend to many listeners. They're delighted to have him back on the radio just as we are to have his deejay and commercial production talents back with our group."
