Larry O’Connor is making a move.

Starting in January, the “Mornings On The Mall” co-host will be heard in the afternoons!

“The Larry O’Connor Show” will air weekdays from 3-6PM EST on WMAL beginning January 2, 2017.

Jake McCann, Vice President/Market Manager for Cumulus Media-Washington, D.C. said: “Larry is a super talent in the industry. He’s funny and thought provoking, and his one-hour afternoon show is one of the top-ranked hours in Washington, D.C. It’s a natural progression to expand his afternoon program.”

Bill Hess, WMAL Program Director and Vice President, News/Talk for Cumulus Media said: “Larry’s success, both on our morning and 5pm shows, has positioned him perfectly to re-open the local afternoon daypart on WMAL. He’s smart, entertaining, and an engaging storyteller who will anchor a program built on the stories of the day, with expanded service elements for our busy D.C. commuters.”

O’Connor said: “During this time of unprecedented change and interest in Washington D.C., it’s an exciting and humbling opportunity to help facilitate an entertaining and provocative conversation on a station as important and influential as WMAL. During the four years I’ve been here in the Nation’s Capital, I’ve been so impressed with this community’s engagement in not only our government, but with issues that hit our kitchen tables every day – like pop culture, faith, and parenting.”

O’Connor continued: “It’s been an honor to engage in discussions on these topics every morning and I’m excited to carry on those conversations while people head home from work and school every day. Although I will miss my talented and generous co-host Brian Wilson, I will admit that I’m looking forward to getting a few hours of extra sleep.”

Brian Wilson will continue early morning duties as host of “Mornings on the Mall.” A search is now underway for a new co-host.
