Radio layoffs unfortunately remain in vogue.

Barnstable Broadcasting is the latest to cut high-profile personalities. FishbowlNY has confirmed that WKJY/KJOY longtime program director Bill Edwards and morning co-host Peri Appollo have been let go.

Edwards spent eight years at KJOY.

Appollo, a Long Island radio veteran, began as a morning fill-in at KJOY in the summer of 2004, and was made full-time co-host in June of 2010.  Prior to arriving at KJOY, Appollo was a fixture at WBAB.
