Joe Clair for Wake Up Duty at WPGC-Washington

WPGC-Washington has hired Joe Clair as its new morning host, joining existing co-host Tati, news man Guy Lambert and producer Poet, beginning Monday, February 9th. Clair won’t have to travel far to get to his new gig — he had been a member of Frank Ski’s afternoon show across the street on WHUR. Clair is also a nationally known comedian with multiple TV appearances to his name; he was also the host of BET’s Rap City for six years. The move also means a radio homecoming for Clair, who started his career at WPGC as part of the Sunday Night Hip-Hop Show with Big Tigger. He later went on to co-host the Russ Parr Morning Show on crosstown WKYS and was a jock on Hot 97/New York.
