Hall shared on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/AndyHallRadio/posts/pfbid0iC9P517sZYi4or7vfzjELhk5jNiax4HwU3PpJ51zqHSC AdMf9ZxRPMHh2wFCTMBNl) earlier this month, “25 years is a hell of a run. Especially considering the vast majority was spent at the same station. Today was my last day at Lazer 103.3. And instead of treating it like a funeral, I?m choosing to appreciate all the great people I?ve met, the excellent shows I?ve seen, the money I helped raise for worthy causes, and the big projects I?ve been blessed to be part of (METALLICA!!!!)
Dream big, friends. You can do anything you set your mind to – and it?s never too late. I?m living proof, as I set sail to my next adventure for the benefit of my family, my health, and my future. It?s time to re-prioritize these things above all else. I?m not prepared to share just where I?m headed and what I?ll be doing yet?thank you for your understanding.
I thank anyone who ever gave me a shot. Whether you hired me, listened to me, met me, or worked alongside of me?I gave you everything I had to give, day in and day out, and never took one minute of it for granted.
Thinking back on my time, I?m truly humbled and grateful for it all. I wouldn?t change a thing.
Thank you for letting me be a part of your life for all these years. And thank you for being a part of mine.”
