Congratulations to former Chicago radio host, Sludge! Brian "Sludge" Haddad has just been named as the new morning show host at KDKB-FM in Phoenix, AZ. After leaving Chicago for Richmond, VA four years ago, Sludge had a top rated morning show with Chicago's Abe Kanan. Recently, the station's owner moved Sludge to afternoons and cut Kanan to bring in a cheap syndicated show. The station flipped formats from rock to rhythmic CHR about a year later. Now the former WZZN host & Chicago native is heading down to Phoenix to rock that town's Loop-like station and to spread the "Sludge Nation" across the southwest. He joins another former Chicagoan, Lee Stone, who works evenings on KDKB.
