A message from Gary Daigneault

You may have noticed some changes being made here at Z107.7, new voices, new people and a shift in our news programming. After 32 years of doing the morning show and anchoring the Z107.7 news, I am going to be taking on more of a consultant role that will result in less airtime. I will be more behind the scenes while still writing News features, Editorials, and continuing to host the call-in talk show “Up Close”. Andrew Dieleman, who came to us in September of 2017 as an intern from Cal State San Bernardino, (and now has 2 degrees), has taken the reins as the News Director and is now anchoring the weekday news. Cassidy Taylor, with her degrees from NAU and a Golden Mike, takes on the weekend News Anchor position. Cody Joseph will join Cassidy with entertainment features on the morning show. Keith Bailey moves from weekends to mid-day and Mitch Schlickenmayer joins the team on weekends. Between Z107.7 and a former stint in 29 Palms, I have been part of your Morongo Basin morning for over 42 years. While I will remain active and available at Theatre 29 and Rotary, I look forward to sleeping in, spending more time with my Grandkids, and puttering around my pond. Be assured that Z107.7 will continue to bring you the highest quality in news and entertainment programming. As to management our General Manager and my wife Cindy Daigneault remains at the helm of the station as our family continues to be part of your family.
