"Twin Cities Live"s Elizabeth Ries may still be looking for a TV co-host, but she has landed a new partner on the radio.

Ries will be joining Margery Punnett from 9 a.m. to noon weekdays on 107.1 FM. KSTP, which runs "TCL," and the radio station are both owned by the Hubbard family.

Punnett has been flying solo since her husband, Ian Punnett, stepped down earlier this year due to a battle with tinnitus. KSTP has yet to name a permanent parter for Ries on the afternoon television talker. Jon Hanson left earlier this year to return to radio management.
