Radio Milwaukee Adds Jon Adler and Maggie Corry to Leadership Roles
Longtime Morning Host Moves Down the Dial and Shifts to Evenings
MILWAUKEE (July 14, 2025) – Longtime Milwaukee radio personality Jon Adler is back on the air beginning today. Adler has joined Radio Milwaukee as assistant program director and will serve as 88Nine’s weekday evening host from 6 to 10 pm. Adler will also host the request show “Let’s Hear It!” every Saturday from 10 am to noon starting Aug. 2.
Radio Milwaukee is also announcing Maggie Corry as the station’s deputy executive director. Corry was previously at Radio Milwaukee from June 2016 to February 2022, leading membership and development.
“The additions of Jon and Maggie clearly strengthen our leadership team and will further drive our community-focused storytelling and programming,” said Jordan Lee, Radio Milwaukee executive director. “Even better, both Jon and Maggie are well-known and committed to Milwaukee, and the diverse and growing audience we serve through 88Nine and HYFIN.”
Lee noted that in Adler’s storied career, he has logged more than 3,000 interviews with musicians, actors, and comedians as a morning show host and earned more than 20 Wisconsin Broadcaster Association awards, including Best Morning Show and Best Interview.
A University of Wisconsin graduate known for his conversational style, Adler plans to leverage his extensive programming and on-air experience to elevate Radio Milwaukee’s music curation, strengthen community engagement, and mentor on-air talent.
“Milwaukee is my home. My goal is to continue contributing to the local media landscape and expand Radio Milwaukee’s influence in the community,” said Adler.
As deputy executive director, Corry will work with Lee and Tarik Moody, director of strategy and innovation, to chart a course for 88Nine and HYFIN.
“This is a homecoming for me,” said Corry. “Since leaving Radio Milwaukee in 2022, I was fortunate to spend time advising nonprofits on ways to resource their impact, strengthen their sustainability, and navigate ever-changing environments. Ultimately, my heart led me back to Radio Milwaukee where I can use the experience I gained to serve this great community and continue our impact.”
