I haven't seen an official announcement yet, but considering his name is in the text of the image link...

Matt Pinfield Joining The SoCal Sound

Pretty funny. Whoops!
He's still listed at KLOS. He may be able to do both! But I doubt it.
Great sleuthing. I checked and found it in the home page source code too:
Matt is a good hire. He was also previously at KFOG in SFO. He, Mookie, and Julie bring a well-honed commercial radio-oriented love for the rock genre to the station (Andy did too). It bodes well for having a talented pool helping to continue steer 88.5 forward toward on-going viability and endurance in this market. If they could get added as an HD-2 on 91.5 or HD-3 on 89.9 that would be great for filling the gaps in their signal's market coverage.
Also, the silhouette on the banner matches this image from fellow non-comm XPN's website. https://xpn.org/2022/11/30/matt-pinfield-xpn-morning-show/
Definitely a hire that fits the "music lovers" vibe the station has cultivated over the years. I could be wrong, but I believe this might be his first public radio stint? I imagine the station will have a membership drive in the spring, so I'll be interested to hear him in an on-air pitching context.
