Kathie J

Hi! I’m Kathie J, a RADIO/TV PERSONALITY in Denver, CO. I have worked in radio for over 23 years and television for over 10 years. I grew up in Thornton, CO and have loved radio my whole life. As a kid, I can remember listening to Hal & Charlie before school with my parents. They were so funny. My first paying job in radio was with the promotions team for KOSI 101.1FM. One of my “most embarrassing moments” was as the KOSI BEAR MASCOT where I fell off of a stage and my head popped off. I can still hear the kids screaming. Murphy Houston was there to help me get up after my knee went out and we still laugh about it to this day. After leaving KOSI 101.1, I found a home on Denver’s #1 rated Morning Show, The KS1075 Morning Show with Larry, Kendall and Kathie J for 18 years. During this time, I was also co-host of the #1 rated television show in Denver, “KDVR – Colorado’s Everyday Show” with Chris Parente for five years. I received an Emmy for “Best Lifestyle Show Host.” In 2021, my childhood dream came true when I created, launched and hosted my own 30-minute daily television show, “The Kathie J Show, ” on KCDO-DENVER. I was honored to have received the award for “BEST OF WESTWORD 2022” BEST TALK SHOW HOST for, “The Kathie J Show.”
