I don't often write about Hamilton radio, but this one seems to have a Toronto slant. Back in November, 999 Virgin Radio cut their Tucker in the Morning with Maura Grierson morning show and replaced it with Virgin Mornings with Adam Wylde and TJ.
Meanwhile, over at Hamilton's 95.3 Fresh Radio, Corus turfed their morning show that featured Darrin Laidman and Colleen Rusholme.
Sorry to learn @953FreshRadio turfed their morning show today. That includes Colleen Rusholme. https://t.co/lQRorYfPLt— Toronto Mike (@torontomike) March 14, 2019
Today, 95.3 Fresh Radio rebranded as energy 95.3 and unveiled their new Tucker & Maura morning show. And here's a cheeky tease for the new show.
And if you're a Colleen Rusholme fan like me, you'll be happy to see she's back on the station hosting the afternoon drive show from 2-6pm.
It seems Hamilton's new energy 95.3 will present itself as a Toronto station, fighting for a slice of the Virgin Radio / KiSS 92.5 / CHUM 104.5 / CHFI pie.
