So far I believe they have lined up:
--Philadelphia WPHT 1210 "The Big Talker" (may be heard in much of Eastern seaboard at night? I think the show will be 7-10 pm

--St Louis KMOX 1120

--Dallas KRLD 1080

--Wash DC WJFK-FM

from Radio Ink, last month: "Jay Severin has been named as a talk show host for select Infinity Broadcasting stations. The announcement was made by Rob Barnett, president of Programming, Infinity.

Jay Severin Has Issues will make its debut in January 2006."

via Boston Radio Watch:

"WTKK/FM Talk 96.9FM has found a replacement for afternoon host Jay Severin. According to WTKK's parent company Greater Media's press release, Michael Graham formerly of WMAL AM 630 in Washington DC, will take over the 3 pm to 7 pm shift at the talk station. As previously noted in this space, Graham, whose political views are way to the right of center, has been trying out for the afternoon slot for the past few weeks.(BRW 10/24) .

"Severin who was station's original afternoon drive host since the FM format launched on 96.9 in September 1999, was benched by WTKK's management in mid-September when he signed a national syndication deal with Infinity which starts January 3rd. By keeping Severin's off air, Greater Media wanted to insure that his new syndicated evening show would debut on WTKK while Greater Media and Infinity were negotiating. By silencing Severin early, part of WTKK's own political strategy was take away any potential momentum from Severin's new program in case he would land on another competing signal in the market, possibly Infinity's WBZ-AM 1030."
