ST. LOUIS – Radio personalities and listeners are welcoming back a St. Louis native on his return.
Dustin “Haze” Monroe is joining iHeartMedia as an assistant program director and on-air personality in the afternoons, according to a release.
Monroe went to school in Dallas at the American Broadcasting School and has worked in Kansas, Texas, and Virginia before making his return to the Gateway City.
“Wow. 18 years ago, I left the East Coast to come back to the Midwest to work at the legendary Z-107.7. Since then, I have built a life in St. Louis and call the city my home. My son was born and raised here; I have deep relationships and I wouldn’t want to be in any other city. I am honored to be back. It’s time to make some noise in afternoon drive again,” he said in a statement.
Listeners can hear Monroe on-air from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday on Z-107.7.
“Haze is an amazing personality who electrifies every event or show that he appears in. Having held major on-air positions in St. Louis, including here at Z-107.7, Haze has a close relationship with this city and the people in it. We are so excited to welcome him back!” John Beck, market president for iHeartMedia St. Louis and Indianapolis, said in a release.
