What happened to Skip on K-LOVE?
Since August 2023, Skip Mahaffey, the beloved host of K-LOVE’s morning show, “The Skip and Amy Show,” has been conspicuously absent from the airwaves. Despite the hiatus, neither K-LOVE nor Skip Mahaffey have provided specific details regarding the reason for his break. Speculation abounds, with some suggesting that Skip may have parted ways with K-LOVE, while others speculate about potential health or family-related issues.
Interestingly, there have been noticeable changes to the show’s tagline, now referred to simply as “This is the K-LOVE morning show,” rather than “The Skip and Amy Show.” This alteration has sparked further speculation among fans, leading some to believe that Skip may not be returning to the show.
While many fans expected the hosts to address Skip’s absence by acknowledging a temporary replacement, no such announcement has been made. Consequently, Skip’s sudden departure has left both fans and listeners puzzled.
Will Skip return to K-LOVE?
As of now, neither K-LOVE nor Skip Mahaffey has issued a public statement regarding his departure. However, it appears that Skip Mahaffey has embarked on a new chapter in his career. In October 2023, it was announced that he had joined WAKW and WAWZ as the new Director of Programming Operations.
