Shawn Cash leaving The Zone

Another longtime radio voice is leaving: Shawn Cash, the morning guy at KZZO (The Zone, 100.5), will be off the air as of Friday.

Cash, who currently co-hosts the station's morning show with Hill Jordan, is best known for his decade-long partnership with Jeff Jensen both at KWOD and The Zone. (Jensen left the business more than a year ago and now is an advertising copywriter.)

Cash, however, will stay in the music biz. Or, rather, the Muzak biz. He's helping to start a company that provides music to retail businesses.

Who will replace Cash in the morning?

No one, immediately, says Steve Cottingim, top suit for Sacramento's CBS radio stations.

"We'll have Hill and maybe some fill-in hosts for awhile, at least," Cottingim says. "We'll be looking for a permanent replacement."

Cottingim says he will miss Cash.

"He did a terrific job for us for a long, long time and we wish him well," Cottingim. "This is not a situation where the guy is leaving to go across the street to another station. It's a whole new business for him."
