Note Pat Prescott will continue her show at WBGO as she leaves her stint at Audacy owned KTWV-FM Los Angeles.

Newark Public Radio “Jazz 88” WBGO Newark, NJ has revamped its weekday programming to feature “less stops in your music listening experience,” Chief Content Officer Stevan Smith posted to the station website. “Aesthetically, we will rebrand our dayparts as ‘Daybreak’ for mornings, ‘Drive Time’ for afternoons, and ‘Lights Out’ for evenings. These changes are in step with the common daily routines of most listeners' lifestyles, but the definitions of these shifts can be retrofitted to include the lifestyles of many.” As part of the new lineup, WBGO adds “Favorite Things with Pat Prescott,” which will air from 12-2pm on weekdays. Prescott is based at Audacy adult R&B “94.7 The Wave” KTWV Los Angeles (94.7) where she hosts 6am-12pm. Prior to relocating to Los Angeles, Prescott previously served as MD/on-air personality at the former jazz-formatted WRVR New York.

Pat Prescott is so good at what she does. She sounds like a friend, she's informed about the music and she makes it seem so easy when it's really not. I'm glad she's not retiring entirely but will continue to host weekends.

Just one note... The story says she will do weekends 6 a.m. to Noon on The Wave. But on Sunday mornings The Wave (as does KCBS-FM and maybe KRTH) runs infomercials from 4 to 8 a.m. And Saturday mornings both KTWV and KCBS-FM runs their public affairs commitment at 6 a.m. So maybe Prescott will be board opping during the early part of her weekend shifts? Or will she simply voice track those weekend morning shifts, as she voice tracks for WBGO Newark?
