What happened to Kane Show?

In April last year, The Kane Show's abrupt end was announced by the makers. The news about the show being cancelled took everyone by shock as Kane had been a part of the show for over a decade. However, the radio channel had admitted that the radio jockey would be a part of their family forever. But, they never released an official statement about the reason why the popular show had been cancelled. 

In April, The Kane Show was removed from Hot 99.5's on-air listing and the channel had then announced a new addition to replace the long-running show's time slot. Back then, an iHeart executive had confirmed that Kane would not be a part of the weekly morning broadcast any longer by mentioning that he would always remain a member of the iHeart family. While fans never got to know what happened to Kane from the Kane Show, the host also decided to stay silent about the sudden change by keeping away from social media.
