WOKQ's Kira Lew on Beach Pizza & Why N.H. Hates Mass.! And Does Travis Kelce Give Taylor Swift the Ick?
Kira Lew wanted out of radio.
After working in an environment that didn't bring out the best in her, she considered leaving the industry she had fallen in love with a few years prior.
But she decided to stick it out. And then everything started falling into place. A few years later, Kira made history by becoming the first female morning show lead in the 54-year history of WOKQ, the Seacoast's No. 1 country music station. Alongside Logan Sherwood, she co-hosts "Kira and Logan in the Morning," and it's one of the most popular radio shows in the region.
From her estate in Hampton, Kira joins host Troy Farkas to discuss her untraditional path, navigating a male-dominated industry as a woman, toxic work conditions, podcasting vs. radio, Taylor Swift's historic performance at Gaslight (and why she thinks Taylor doesn't like Travis Kelce), and of course, her favorite Seacoast spots for pizza, Mexican food, cocktails, and more.
