(KNX 1070) -- After 30 years at the mic, at the end of this year, Gene "Bean" Baxter will leave KROQ's morning show "Kevin & Bean."

Baxter announced his pending departure in March, but Thursday he sat down with KNX In-Depth to talk about the details.

A British citizen, Baxter says it's a decision that he and his wife have been tossing around for a long time, and after 30 years, now seems like the perfect moment.
