Career

Andy Chanley attended Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, where he wrote for and served as managing editor of the university newspaper, the Purdue Exponent. As an upperclassman, he began his media career as a disc jockey at WKHY in Lafayette in the early 1990s.[1] Later, he worked at WRZX in Indianapolis.

After launching his career in Indiana, Chanley relocated to Los Angeles, California. First, he served as an on-air personality with modern rock station KLYY (Y107); then, he moved on to adult album alternative (AAA) outlet KACD-FM (Channel 103.1).[2] For several years after leaving KACD-FM, Chanley focused solely on voice-over work for video games, radio, television, and films. His credits include the Über Narrator in the newsreel segment of the comedy film Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story[3] and the voice of Jack Campbell in Doom 3.[4]

Chanley began his tenure with AAA station KSWD (100.3 The Sound) in Los Angeles in May 2008, signing on as its first on-air host.[2] On February 2, 2015, he began co-hosting weekday mornings with Mark Thompson on the debut of Mark in the Morning.[5] On January 15, 2016, Chanley moved into his own timeslot, hosting Andy in the Afternoon weekdays on 100.3 The Sound.[6] The show lasted until August 2, 2016; the following day, he returned to morning drive, joining Gina Grad in the new Andy & Gina In The Morning show.[7] Chanley served as KSWD’s last DJ when the station signed off for the final time on November 16, 2017 at 1 p.m.[8]

From January 22 to February 9, 2018, Chanley guest hosted afternoon drive on KCSN (88.5 FM) in place of general manager and program director Sky Daniels.[9] On March 21, 2018 at 3 p.m., Daniels handed over the afternoon drive timeslot to Chanley effective immediately. Daniels would continue his off-air duties.[10]
