KIRO RADIO Launches Daily COVID-19: Seattle Podcast

KIRO-FM

KIRO-FM/Seattle launches a daily podcast to educate the Northwest region and Washington State residents during the coronavirus global pandemic entitled "COVID-19: Seattle Podcast." The daily podcast is hosted by Dave Ross, a trusted voice on KIRO for an excess of 40 years, and KIRO reporter Aaron Granillo. The duo will condense the most important updates of the day into a short podcast format for the benefit of the community. The program will be released each afternoon, and a daily "COVID-19" email newsletter is also available for the same information.

"I couldn't be more excited about this project," said KIRO Radio Program Director Bryan Buckalew. "I think Dave Ross, with his decades of news experience, and Aaron Granillo, with his reporter's sensibility, are uniquely capable of examining the effects of the coronavirus pandemic as it expands in Washington state and across the nation."
