What Happened To David On Kfrog

Country radio DJ David Bugenske left Go Country 105 earlier this year, and for months fans on his social media accounts peppered him with questions about when he’d return to the air.

The answer came Monday when Bugenske debuted as co-host of the morning show on K-FROG 95.1 alongside Kelli “Green” Barajas and Ginny Harmon.

“K-FROG is not only giving me the opportunity to work with some of the most talented and funniest people I’ve ever met, but they’re also keeping me in the SoCal country family that I’ve fallen in love with,” Bugenske said in a written statement. “K-FROG is the definition of California’s country family. They work hard and they are there for each other and the community. We’re going to have a lot of fun together.”

Bugenske worked at KKGO-FM/105.1 for five years, taking over that station’s morning show as a solo host in August 2018 when co-host Graham Bunn departed.

In March, he took leave from Go Country, soon sharing with friends and fans on Facebook that he’d done so to address a few serious issues in his life.

“I know many of you are confused, and I appreciate all of the messages,” Bugenske wrote in a post on March 19. “I suffer from anxiety and depression, and on top of that, dealing with a personal issue. For a long time, I’ve been masking it all with alcohol. Two weekends ago, I hit rock bottom and it became completely out of control.

“With the help of true friends and family, I am now getting the help I need,” he continued. “I will be OK. The biggest lesson I’ve learned is to speak up. People will amaze you, just like y’all have amazed me.”

The K-FROG morning show is officially known as The Wake Up Call and airs from 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. Monday through Friday.

“We are so excited to welcome a champion for country music and country radio to the K-FROG family,” said Michael Valenzuela, senior vice president and market manager for Entercom Riverside which operates the station, in a written statement.

“David’s remarkable personality, presence on social media and love for serving the Southern California community is a natural fit for a heritage station such as K-FROG,” Valenzuela said. “We look forward to creating great content with David.”
