AUDACY Classic Hits WCBS-F/NEW YORK morning co-host PATTY STEELE’s GRACIE AWARD-winning podcast will get a broadcast airing on three AUDACY NEW YORK stations on SUNDAY (4/24) at 6a (ET).

“THE DEEP 6,” STEELE’s podcast, won a GRACIE this year in the National Podcast-Lifestyle Limited Series category. A special two-part episode, an interview with STEELE’s son JAKE about his heroin addiction and recovery, will air on WCBS-F, Hot AC WNEW (NEW 102.7), and Classic Hip-Hop WXBK (94.7 THE BLOCK) on SUNDAY.

STEELE, co-host of “SCOTT SHANNON IN THE MORNING WITH PATTY STEELE,” said, “It’s important that we take the stigma away from addiction issues and talk openly about what is truly affecting our children. I’m so grateful that JAKE and I are in such a good place that we’re able to share our journey.”

AUDACY SVP/Programming JIM RYAN said, “I cannot imagine what PATTY and her son went through, and believe it is a story that families need to hear.  I’m hoping by airing it on our stations we can spread the word to a greater audience and encourage people to download and listen to the podcast.  It is rare to hear such a raw, emotional story as this.”

News WINS-A Dir./News and Programming BEN MEVORACH said, “PATTY’s conversation with her son is heartbreaking, inspiring, life-affirming, and compelling. It is one of the most important podcasts to come along in a very long time. What makes it so powerful is its authenticity. You can feel the pain and unrelenting love for her son on this very personal journey. PATTY is brave beyond words to share and explore all that has happened and because her story could be any parent’s story, every parent will find a part of themselves in it.”
