CHR WWWQ-FM (Q99.7) Atlanta will launch a new morning program, "The Q Morning Crew," beginning Monday, March 30. The show will air weekdays from 6-10am, replacing the longtime "The Bert Show," which had been a fixture on the station for 25 years. The new program features Joe Breezy, Daena "DK" Kramer, and Cort Freeman, with a format centered on pop culture and lifestyle conversation tailored to Atlanta audiences.

Program Director Patrick Davis said the show is built around distinct personalities, describing Breezy as a charismatic host pursuing new opportunities in Atlanta, Kramer as a sharp and humorous voice, and Freeman as a quick-thinking comedian who adds unpredictability to the program.

Breezy returns to Atlanta radio from Nashville, where he hosted afternoons at WJXA-FM and appeared as a pop culture correspondent on WKRN-TV's "Local On 2." Kramer brings experience from morning shows in Houston, San Francisco, and Las Vegas, along with prior work on the syndicated program "The 90s with Alfonso Ribeiro." Freeman joins from Detroit, where he contributed to "Mojo in the Morning" and "Dave & Chuck 'The Freak,'" and will also serve as executive producer.

Brian Philips, Chief Content Officer for Cumulus Media, said the company has focused on developing a show with strong character-driven elements and ongoing storylines designed to engage listeners.

Justin Schaflander, Vice President/Market Manager for Cumulus Atlanta, added that the launch aligns with the station's strategy to emphasize live and local programming as part of a broader repositioning of Q99.7.
