The swift roll-out of the Woody Show among iHeartMedia’s Alternative stations continues with the addition of two more markets on Wednesday, January 3.
iHeart Alternative “Star 101.9” KUCD Honolulu announced that the show will run from 4-10am. Current morning hosts Hudson Hott and Scotty Blaisdell will stay with the company in new roles. Hott will move to middays at KUCD as John Manuel exits. Blaisdell will continue to host middays at sister AC 92.3 KSSK-FM.
While no annoucement has been made the show will also debut on “95X” 95.1 W236CA Durham/95.3 W237BZ Clayton NC replacing Chris Edge. Edge remains in place as Senior VP/Programming overseeing iHeart’s Raleigh and Greensboro markets.
Those two markets join “Alt 105.7” WRDA Atlanta and “Alt 106.7” WDTW-FM Detroit where the show will debut on Wednesday.
iHeartMedia’s STAR 101.9, Hawaii’s top rated Alternative station, announced today the debut of The Woody Show, effective January 3, 2018. The top-rated morning show will broadcast Monday through Friday from 4 – 10 a.m. HST, and Saturdays from 6 to 10 a.m. HST.
The Woody Show is highly-interactive, socially-engaging appointment radio. Featuring Woody, along with co-hosts Ravey, Greg Gory, Menace and Sebas, The Woody Show is described by listeners as “authentic,” “raw,” “unapologetic” and “recess/happy hour on the radio.” In 2016, the popular program was a NAB Marconi Radio Award finalist for “Major Market Personality of the Year,” and it was launched into national syndication by Premiere Networks in 2017. Fans can follow the show on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
“When this opportunity came up at Star 101.9…in HONOLULU, we told Jamie Hyatt, ‘yeah, good luck finding anyone interested in THAT!’” said Woody. “But, we talked it over and after less than a second, jumped at the chance to ‘take one for the team.’”
“We are very excited to bring The Woody Show to Hawaii listeners,” said Jamie Hyatt, Senior Vice President of Programming, iHeartMedia Honolulu. “They bring a unique twist to morning radio that’s never been heard before. We expect the show to become an instant hit.”
