Former “New Country 92.3” WIL St. Louis morning hosts Bud Ford & Jerry Broadway are joining SuiteRadio for syndication.
“Bud & Broadway” will be made available just as a show for multiple formats including Country, Classic Rock and Classic Hits, or as part of their 24/7 “The Brand” Country format starting on Monday, September 7.
Ford and Broadway hosted mornings at WIL from March 2016 until their exit as part of Hubbard’s cuts in May. They’ve previously hosted mornings and afternoons at “106.1 The Twister” KTGX Tulsa and in the Dothan AL market at both “B105.3” WECB and 95.5 WTVY.

Finding great talent is always one of the biggest challenges in radio. Finding great talent during the reduced budgets brought about by our pandemic-fueled economic downturn can be even more difficult.” said Cruze, veteran programmer and President of SuiteRadio. “These guys are hands down the funniest and friendliest Country Radio morning show I have ever heard, and they’re perfect for Country, Classic Country and even Classic Rock or Classic Hits. We are thrilled to be able to offer this show to anyone looking for a Morning Show solution!”
Rowdy noted, “I have known Bud and Jerry for years. These two will fit the RFC Media/SuiteRadio culture perfectly and be another great addition to The Brand, our 24/7 Country format. Bud and Broadway are without a doubt the funniest morning show in all of country radio – no Bones about it,” Yates concluded.
