Rebekah "Bex" Maroun is named Executive Producer and co-host for Matty In The Morning on iHeartMedia CHR WXKS-FM (Kiss 108) Boston, effective October 1. She joins air personalities Matt Siegel, Billy Costa and Lisa Donovan. Maroun replaces Medha Gandhi who recently joined the syndicated "Elvis Duran & The Morning Show" earlier this month. Maroun is inbound from WTDY Philadelphia where she spent four years as a morning producer, on-air co-host and afternoon personality.

"I love Bex and can't wait to work with her," said Siegel. "Bex is a true talent and I know her creativity and upbeat personality will add a special element to our morning show."

"Bex's chemistry with the Matty team was obvious at our first meeting," said iHeartMedia Boston VP/Programming and Kiss 108 Program Director Dylan Sprague. "Couple that with her magnetic personality and producing experience and it was really an easy choice."

"It is such a privilege to be joining the legendary KISS 108 and its iconic morning show-Matty In The Morning," added Bex. "Thanks to my Philly family for the amazing run as well as iHeartMedia Boston for the incredible opportunity. I'm thrilled to return to iHeartMedia and ready to call Boston my home."

Maroun previously hosted a sports segment on WIP Sports Radio, served as an entertainment reporter for KYW News Radio and assisted in the launch of an entertainment segment "The Hot Minute on CBS 3 TV" in Philadelphia. In addition, she's also served as a producer for iHeartMedia's syndicated show, "The Weekend Throwdown with Jagger."
