\"JuliaJulia has exited as morning host at Alternative \u201cAlt 98.7<\/a>\u201d WDZH Detroit and as midday host on nine of the company\u2019s CHRs nationally.<\/p>\n

She wrote, \u201cToday was my last day with Audacy, and The Julia Show has come to an end. After nearly 15 years with the company, I\u2019ve decided not to renew my contract. This wasn\u2019t a hasty decision. I\u2019ve known for awhile it was time for me to move forward. I\u2019m good. I feel really clear-headed and energized to find the next situation for me to thrive in. A huge thank you to everyone who has helped get me to where I am today. Twenty-year-old me, who got a job in promotions by dancing on a table because they told us in broadcasting school to \u201ctry to be memorable\u201d, wouldn\u2019t believe I got to where I am now, the only solo female-led morning show in Detroit while simultaneously nationally syndicated in Top 40. And a massive thank you and hug to everyone who has supported or listened through the years. Whether it was 98.7 AMP Radio, B96, Church of Lazlo, or any version of The Julia Show.\u201d<\/p>\n

After starting her career at WBTI Port Huron MI, Julia rose to night host at then CBS CHR \u201c98.7 Amp Radio\u201d WDZH in 2015 and to morning co-host<\/a> in 2018. After that station flipped to Soft AC a few months later, she moved to sister \u201cB96\u201d WBBM-FM Chicago in January 2019<\/a> hosting nights, middays and afternoons through February 2024. While remaining at WBBM-FM, she would relocate back to Detroit and become part of the \u201cChurch of Lazlo\u201d show at the time heard in afternoons on Alternative stations in Kansas City, Dallas, Las Vegas and Detroit. When that show retrenched<\/a> to just Kansas City in August 2022, she would move to her current role in mornings at WDZH.<\/p>\n

While at one time being heard on fourteen of Audacy\u2019s CHR stations, Julia had been heard through now on: \u201cKiss 98.5<\/a>\u201d WKSE Buffalo, \u201cKiss 105.5<\/a>\u201d WKXJ Chattanooga, 98.5 KLUC<\/a> Las Vegas, \u201c103.7 Kiss-FM<\/a>\u201d WXSS Milwaukee, \u201cB97<\/a>\u201d WEZB New Orleans, \u201cLive 101.5<\/a>\u201d KALV-FM Phoenix, \u201cQ94<\/a>\u201d WRVQ Richmond, \u201c98 PXY<\/a>\u201d WPXY Rochester, and \u201c106.5 The End<\/a>\u201d KUDL Sacramento.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Julia has exited as morning host at Alternative \u201cAlt 98.7\u201d WDZH Detroit and as midday host on nine…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":225452,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[156,157,111,139,69],"class_list":{"0":"post-225451","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-music","10":"tag-new-zealand","11":"tag-newzealand","12":"tag-nz"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=225451"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225451\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/225452"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=225451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=225451"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=225451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
