Chuck & Puck
iHeartMedia Seattle’s SportsRadio KJR 950 AM announced Tuesday the debut of the new Chuck and Buck in the Morning show and The Jason Puckett Show, effective March 26.

Chuck and Buck in the Morning will broadcast weekdays from 6 – 10 am and The Jason Puckett Show will broadcast weekdays from 10 am – 1 pm.

The Chuck & Puck midday show will become The Jason Puckett Show. Puckett has been with Sports Radio 950 KJR AM for 15 years in a variety of roles, and will remain cohost of the new midday show.

Chuck and Buck in the Morning will be hosted by Chuck Powell, who will move to mornings after co-hosting the station’s Chuck & Puck midday show for the last three years, and Bucky Jacobsen, local former MLB Seattle Mariners player who has contributed to the station for several years. Listeners will enjoy the balance and industry experience of a radio veteran and a former pro athlete on the show, which will feature storytelling, wit, and fun energy in the mornings.

Dick Fain, current host of Sports Radio 950 KJR’s morning show, will co-host the station’s new afternoon show with Dave “Softy” Mahler, weekdays from 3 – 7 pm.
