Wes McKane moves from CHR WXSS-FM (103.7 Kiss FM)/Milwaukee to co-owned Hot AC WMYX-FM (99.1 The Mix) joining Elizabeth Kay for the new morning show "Wes and Elizabeth," weekdays from 5-9am, starting Monday, October 5. With McKane's move, The Judge will become a permanent part of the new "Riggs, Alley and The Judge" morning program, weekdays from 5-am on Kiss FM.

McKane stated, "When Elizabeth and I came up with this idea we thought management would never go for it... but they did. So now we better nail it. But with a combined 40 plus years of radio and almost 20 here in Milwaukee, I think we will be a great success. I can not wait to get going with Elizabeth and her quick wit, real talk and touch of sass on the legendary 99.1 The Mix."

"Wes McKane did great things on 103.7 KISS-FM and now he comes across the hall with Elizabeth Kay on 99.1 The Mix and I'm very excited to watch what happens next," added 99.1 The Mix PD JoJo Martinez.

"We're pretty excited to bring a new fresh approach to Milwaukee mornings. The Judge has already built a rapport with our listeners in his short time with us. We're stoked to take this to the next level," said Riggs.

The Judge added, "I am super excited for the opportunity to represent my hometown Milwaukee. Riggs, Alley and I are ready to wake Milwaukee up, literally hah!"
