Jimmy Malone has been added to the morning show at WNIR in Akron for Malone Mondays on the Media-Com news/talk station.
Malone will be heard from 7-10 AM alongside current hosts Joyce Johnson and Phil Ferguson each Monday on The Morning Buzz , which airs from 5:30-10 AM each weekday morning.
The move comes after Malone was part of the nationwide cuts at iHeartMedia last year. Malone had hosted a late morning show at 1100 WTAM in Cleveland from April 2022 until his August departure. Previously, he was the morning show host at Majic 105.7 in Cleveland from 1991 until February 2021.
Jimmy Malone is no stranger to the Akron radio scene. In addition to his time at the iHeartMedia Cleveland cluster, he hosted a morning show at 1350 WARF — also owned by iHeartMedia — for a year before focusing his attention on 1100 WTAM in 2022.
