Ready to shake up your radio dial? Premiere Networks just announced a major move: 'The Woody Show' is now available in multiple formats and dayparts! This is a game-changer for radio stations looking to spice up their programming.
Based out of iHeartMedia's 'Alt 98.7' KYSR in Los Angeles, 'The Woody Show' brings you Woody, along with co-hosts Greg Gory, Menace, Gina Grad, and Sebas. The show, known for its engaging content, will now be accessible across various formats. You can catch it as a four-hour show, with an optional fifth hour, airing on weekdays and Saturdays. Plus, stations get the flexibility to weave in their own music.
The show's journey began on KYSR in 2014, later entering syndication in 2017. Woody himself has a rich history, having previously hosted morning shows at KITS San Francisco, WKQX Chicago, and KPNT St. Louis.
Woody's take? "If we can have breakfast for dinner, we can have The Woody Show in other dayparts. Things change, but content is content. If people love the show and you have a need, we can now meet that need wherever it is." This adaptability is key in today's dynamic media landscape.
Peter Tripi, Premiere Networks’ EVP/Affiliate Sales, added, "The Woody Show continues to deliver what affiliates and listeners want—smart, authentic, and relatable radio. Expanding into new formats and dayparts is a natural next step. We’re thrilled to offer stations even more options to grow and entertain their audience."
But here's where it gets interesting... The radio industry is constantly evolving. This move by Premiere Networks could be seen as a direct response to the changing listening habits of audiences. It allows stations to cater to different schedules and preferences.
And this is the part most people miss... The ability to customize the show with local music is a smart move. It allows stations to maintain their local identity while leveraging the popularity of 'The Woody Show'.
Controversy Alert: Some might argue that syndication dilutes the local flavor of radio. What do you think? Does this expansion enhance or detract from the radio experience? Share your thoughts in the comments!
