Marilyn Denis is out. Your CHUM mornings are changing.

Yo, you gotta hear about this CHUM radio shake-up!

### CHUM 104.5 just dropped big news, fam

Okay but real talk—CHUM 104.5, a station that's been a *fixture* in the city for generations, just announced their new morning show. It's called 'NAT & JOSIE,' and it's taking over from the legendary Marilyn Denis. For anyone who grew up here, Marilyn's voice was just *there* every morning, like the smell of fresh roti from that spot on Lawrence or the sound of the 501 streetcar rattling down Queen Street. This isn't just a radio show change, dude, it's like a whole era ending, you know?

What This Means for Toronto: * **A new sound:** Nat Hunter and Josie Dye are bringing their energy, hit music, and local stories. It's gonna be a different vibe for your morning commute, whether you're stuck on the DVP or battling the crowds at Kennedy Station. * **Keeping it local:** CHUM says they're still all about local stories and trending topics. That's crucial, 'cause we need voices that get what it's like to live in this city, from the Scarborough Bluffs to the Beaches. * **The end of an era:** Marilyn Denis has been a constant for so many of us. It's wild to think about someone new kicking off our days.

This is huge for the city's airwaves. Radio is still so foundational, especially when you're stuck in traffic, trying to get to work downtown from like, Pickering. It’s a part of our daily rhythm. So, a change like this, it’s not just about who’s talking on the radio – it's about what defines our mornings as Torontonians.

Real talk, this is Toronto — stay up.

My crew on the morning show totally broke this down – catch their take live at mornings.live.
