Radio updates

Jeremy Levy back with you with some more radio updates. Some radio stations have  an employee of the month. For Altitude Sports radio for January it is Nate Kreckman  the afternoon host on Altitude sports radio 92. 5 He was awarded this on Tuesday February 15, 2022 for the month of January. Congratulations to him for this.

At the beginning of January Jason Cosmitsky who is the regular radio announcer for the Denver Nuggets on sports radio 92.5  was in covid 19 protocall, and Nate Kreckman filled in as the main host on the Denver Nuggets radio broadcasts. It was great hearing him in this roll. Bret Cain couldn’t believe how many stats Nate had during the broadcasts. He played some of them the next day on the morning show. He said that Nate didn’t take a breath while reading the stats. He and I thought that was funny.  

Armen Williams is leaving 610 radio in Houston. If you remember from past blogs he was recently with 104.3 the Fan. He also spent some time with 104.5 the team in New York. Congratulations to Armen for this new opportunity.  Armen will not be in radio anymore. He is going into the business world.

Jason Barett’s sports media’s top 20 lists are out. Dave Tepper got 18, for altitude sports radio and Raj Sheron got 14 for sports radio 104.3 the fan.  

Salem Media in Colorado are looking for sales assistants to join their team. Look on the 710 KNUS or 94.7 KRKS websites for the e-mail address to e-mail your resume.  I have been hearing about this when I tune into 710 KNUS shows.

During the radiothon KALC radio raised 1.1 million dollars. This is great news for them.

KYGO 98.5 radio was selected as station of the year for CMA (The Country Music association). Tracy Dickson of 98.5 KYGO was selected as best morning show for a major  market. Congratulations to her for this.  98.5 KYGO keeps it in the family and gets Mike Fisbeck as it’s next morning show co-host along side Tracy Taylor. Congratulations to him for this. I enjoy listening to them in the mornings. My favorite segment of the show is Tracy’s College of Hollywood knowledge where callers try and beat Tracy with Hollywood questions. If they beat her then they get 100 dollars of Tracy’s money. This happens at 7:30 AM every week day morning.

Way FM which is a Christian Cuntempory Music station has brought on 2 seasoned programmers for their music stations in Colorado. Robyn Sedgwick has been named General manager for Colorado and Kansas. Mike Weston is named Station Manager of Denver. Sedgewick spent the past couple of years as station manager of KCME radio in Colorado Springs. She also spent time at K200em Jazz radio in Colorado Springs.  Before that she spent time at a Christian radio station in Colorado Springs. Weston will report to Robbin. Congratulations to the both of them.  

The Colorado radio blog sends it’s condolences to Joel Folger. Joel did some work for KBPI radio back a long time ago and he is best remembered in the Minnesota and Dallas Texas area. Joel died of a heart attack last Thursday he was 65 years old. Services will take place at the beginning of March. I didn’t get a chance to listen to him on KBPI, but I’m sure he was a great DJ.  

Thanks for tuning in.
