However, after receiving some harsh criticism from fans online, Jon said that he’s lost the “trust” with his colleagues and is ditching the gig.
"I'm not going to work there anymore because now the trust and the teamwork is gone," Jon told Dallas radio station 103.7 KVIL FM. "Because now someone took a picture of me...Thanks a lot, man! Now I gotta go through all of this stuff and now I gotta leave a job that I was passionate about."
Gosselin is still DJing, too! His next gig is July 22 in Quakertown, PA, according to his Instagram.
