On February 29, 2016, it was officially announced that "Power Morning Show" hosts Scotty K and Bret Mega were let go. This came as a surprise since the local morning show, and the station as a whole, had been gaining traction in the ratings. Some speculations had been made about Power mornings returning to a more music-intensive show. Word of their replacement was announced on March 19, with PK, formerly of "The Playhouse" morning show from Portland, Oregon, and KKHH in Houston, hosting mornings along with his wife Denise and Riley Couture beginning March 21.
