Austin Hill broadcasting Boise show from Phoenix
Don Day | September 30, 2009Buzz on the street is that KIDO/580 AM’s new afternoon host is not broadcasting from Boise.
That buzz is – mostly – true. Peak SVP Kevin Godwin confirms to IdahoRadioNews.com that Hill’s show started originating from Phoenix on Monday. Hill was in the Peak building last week for his first two broadcasts – but will broadcast for the most part from Arizona.
Hill will make some appearances in Boise, and will move here full-time in February, according to Godwin.
“I think he would move here now, but he is in the middle of co-authoring his second book and I think his publishing company needed him in Phoenix to finish the project,” Godwin said. “His family is terrific, and are all looking forward to making Boise their home. “
Well then in all fairness to your listeners and accuracy in media, the program should carry the tag….”And now live from Phoenix, Arizona, here is Austin Hill….” but given what I have seen from Peak…..I doubt if that will happen anytime soon….
Welcome to Austing Hil. You’re a breath of fresh air.
