West Seattle's Marty Riemer, whose near perfect radio voice has been part of the audio consciousness of the northwest for decades is returning to radio.

In a bit of a turnabout Jodi Brothers Blau who served as Riemer's co-host on his show on The Mountain 103.7FM is the host this time on 95.7fm The Jet. The show airs from 6am to 10am weekdays.

"We start together on January 5, 2015," Riemer said. " Until then I will make sporadic appearances on the show which she will be hosting solo and with guest hosts. I will also be bringing back the 7:20 Funnies .. reason enough to tune in."

Riemer was let go by The Mountain in 2009 and then brought back on a tide of positive public sentiment. Then after Riemer famously left The Mountain by choice in 2012 he continued his Friday morning podcasts and his audience grew. He also continued work with his company Twisted Scholar a company that provides educational materials to schools. More recently he and Michael Stusser have been working on a program called Tech Timeout for Forrester Insurance in which they travel to high schools across the nation and get students to give up their smartphones and other devices, at least for a little while.

That came about as a result of Stusser and Riemer's award winning documentary film, Sleeping with Siri, and their program called Digital Blackout.

When he left The Mountain, he was verbally respectful, by contract, but his disdain for what the state of radio, at least at The Mountain had fallen to was obvious. That station has since gone through a dramatic makeover. Riemer is upbeat and typically comical about his new gig.

"I couldn't be happier. While I am skeptical of any venture that involves me, somehow with Jodi 1 + 1/2 = much greater than 2 (try to figure that math). In short, she and I were meant to be together professionally. Personally, we'd kill each other."
