G105 Becomes First Fred Show Affiliate

After last week’s announcement that Premiere Networks will begin syndicating “103.5 Kiss-FM” WKSC Chicago’s “The Fred Show” to stations nationally, the show has gained its first affiliate.

iHeartMedia’s “G105” WDCG Durham/Raleigh will launch The Fred Show in mornings starting Monday, May 8. Hosted by Chris ‘Fred’ Frederick, the show also features Kaelin, Rufio, Paulina, Showbiz Shelly, Jason Brown and Keke. Formerly known as ‘Brotha Fred’, Frederick joined WKSC at the start of 2011 after previously hosting mornings for the company’s “96.1 The Beat” WIBT Charlotte (where he pulled double duty hosting “Fox News Edge” for WCCB-TV in Charlotte) and afternoons at “96.7 Kiss-FM” KHFI Austin.

The Fred Show fills the morning show opening created by the layoff of Danny Meyers’ morning show at the end of March.

iHeartMedia Raleigh’s G105, Raleigh’s #1 Hit Music Station, announced today the addition of the newly nationally syndicated “The Fred Show” effective May 8.

Originating from 103.5 KISS FM (WKSC-FM), Chicago’s #1 Hit Music Station, “The Fred Show” features host Fred and his unique cast of characters, including Kaelin, Rufio, Paulina, Showbiz Shelly, Jason Brown, and Keke, as they bring their energetic brand of entertainment, fun, and laughs to listeners every day.

Premiere Networks recently announced “The Fred Show” to its nationally syndicated radio lineup.

“The entire iHeartMedia Raleigh team is excited to welcome ‘The Fred Show’ to G105,” said Michael Burger, Market President for iHeartMedia Raleigh. “G105 is a dynamic brand and has been blessed with many amazing personalities and talent over its long tenure. We are thrilled to take the next step in its evolution. ‘The Fred Show’ features a cast that is authentic, hilarious, and fantastic at connecting personally with their listeners.”

“We are SO excited to bring ‘The Fred Show’ to Raleigh and G105!” said Chris ‘Fred’ Frederick, host of “The Fred Show.” “Thanks to Michael Burger, A.J., Trevor Morini, and the iHeartMedia Raleigh team for the opportunity to introduce our show to such a legendary and powerful brand! We can’t wait for Raleigh to join our dysfunctional family starting on May 8!”
