“Lou & Michele” Join Revamped Lineup at “New Jersey 101.5”
On the heels of last week’s news that Dennis Malloy is returning to Townsquare Media’s WKXW-FM, Trenton “New Jersey 101.5” to co-host the “Dennis & Judi Show” with Judi Franco come more changes to the station’s lineup. Beginning July 13, Lou Russo (right) and Michele Pilenza (left) will host the “Lou & Michele Show” from 12:00 noon to 3:00 pm. They move to “New Jersey 
101.5” from the company’s hot AC WJLK-FM, Asbury Park “94.3 The Point.” That move chops an hour off the “Deminski & Moore” afternoon show which now airs from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. As we reported last week, Eric Johnson moves from his on-air role with Judi Franco to operations manager. Townsquare New Jersey VP for content Sam Elliot Gagliardi says, “These changes are about investing in local talent, local content, and local conversations. No one understands New Jersey better than the people who live here. This lineup brings together some of the strongest personalities in the state and reinforces New Jersey 101.5’s role as the place where New Jersey comes together every day.”
