iHeartMedia Milwaukee has announced a new weekday programming lineup for NewsTalk 1130 WISN, effective Friday, January 2, moving longtime midday host Benjamin Yount in mornings and adding Jason Goch to the midday slot. Yount, who has hosted WISN's 9-11am show since 2018, will move to mornings from 6-9am. During his tenure at WISN, Yount has also served as the station's News Director.

Goch joins WISN as the new weekday midday host from 9-11am and will also handle news duties during Yount's morning show. He brings more than 20 years of spoken-word radio experience, including sports talk and general interest programming, and has previously appeared on WISN as a guest host.

Program Director Jerry Bott said the changes build on WISN's momentum, citing Yount's ratings performance and Goch's experience and versatility as strengthening the station's local lineup. The remainder of the weekday schedule will remain unchanged.

The new lineup follows the previously announced transition of longtime morning host Jay Weber, who will conclude his daily show at the end of December and launch a twice-weekly iHeartPodcast in 2026, while continuing as a contributor to WISN and iHeartMedia.
