Longtime air personality Jennifer Wilde will be leaving the syndicated "The Wilde Ride" and the radio business at the end of June to pursue other projects. "After a lot of thought and soul-searching, I've decided to end The Wilde Ride show and retire from radio. My heart is telling me to grow Jennifer Wilde Photography (Personal Brand Photography for Creative VIPS) into a full-time business, which will involve more travel, so I'm creating the space in my life to make that happen."

Talent Farm's Steve Wall has known and worked with Wilde since the late 80's said, "It's been amazing to watch her career evolve over the past 30 years. I respect Jen immensely and while I'm sad to see her retire from radio, I also wish her the absolute best going forward with both her health and her new endeavors."

Wilde's last syndicated daily show will air June 25.

Meanwhile, Talent Farm welcomes Kiley Sommers to the air. Sommers has been working with Wall for several years, handling marketing and affiliate relations for Talent Farm stations nationwide. With additional experience in promotions and a background in broadcasting.

"Kiley brings a fresh, female sound to the Talent Farm. She is excited to be on the air, connecting with listeners daily and - similar to Jen's show - sharing positive, pop culture content that is a great fit for most formats," added Wall.
