BIG D AND BUBBA have announced that they will step down from their local afternoon spot on CLEAR CHANNEL Country WSIX (THE BIG 98)/NASHVILLE in “an effort to focus on the continued growth and success of their nationally syndicated show.” While the local afternoon show will conclude on NOVEMBER 22nd, BIG D and BUBBA will continue to broadcast PREMIERE NETWORK’s syndicated Country morning show BIG D AND BUBBA from WSIX in NASHVILLE.
WSIX PD JON ANTHONY tells ALL ACCESS that the search is on for the next afternoon drive host. Airchecks and resumes may be sent to programming@clearchannel.com.
In other BIG D AND BUBBA news, the BIG D AND BUBBA SHOW will debut on The AMERICAN FORCES RADIO NETWORK on MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21st. Airing live from 6a to 10a (ET) on AFN’s Country station, THE BIG D AND BUBBA SHOW will now be heard overseas in 177 countries and all U.S. ships at sea.
BIG D AND BUBBA said, “Being a part of AFN, and knowing that we can bring a little bit of home to our friends and family who are stationed overseas, is possibly the single biggest accomplishment in radio for us. We couldn't be more excited!”
”BIG D AND BUBBA have been doing their thing very successfully for years and we believe they are a fantastic fit on our Country service. I’m positive our troops overseas will enjoy their show, and they will especially appreciate the love BIG D and BUBBA have for our heroes serving AMERICA abroad,” said Director, AMERICAN FORCES RADIO NETWORK WORLDWIDE JEF REILLY.
BIG D AND BUBBA have also announced recent affiliate adds of CLEAR CHANNEL Country WBYL (BILL 95.5)/WILLIAMSPORT, PA, CLEAR CHANNEL Country WBYL (BILL 95.5) and SOUTH CENTRAL Country WLFW/EVANSVILLE, IN.
