Audacy has announced the launch of its own syndication unit.

Infinity Networks is described as “a network services and content platform that will make best-in-class shows, talent and content available to other broadcasters, national audiences and network advertisers.” The company states that Infinity Networks will serve as a dedicated syndication provider for local broadcast brands, with the goal of establishing a large portfolio of affiliate partnerships across the industry providing affiliates access to high-quality programming and resources to drive local station partners’ audience engagement and advertiser relationships.

Audacy Chief Operating Officer Susan Larkin said, “The launch of Infinity Networks underscores Audacy’s commitment to delivering exceptional local programming to national audiences. Infinity Networks gives stations access to premium music-based shows and talent that captivate listeners, elevate ratings and drive revenue. We look forward to building partnerships with affiliates to extend the reach of our top-tier shows and talent across the country.”

At launch, Infinity Networks will represent two programs as the company takes its two national daily Country shows “Katie & Company” and “The Rob & Holly Show” in-house. It will also serve as the exclusive U.S. affiliate and barter representation partner of SPARC Media Hub, a content workflow solution for radio stations that includes promotions, prep, text messaging, production and phone screening tools in a best-in-class and easy-to-use platform designed and built by radio professionals.

Infinity Networks describes its launch products as

“Katie & Company”
Katie Neal, ACM award-winning and CMA Award finalist, is the vibrant host of “Katie & Company,” where she brings 2.7 million weekly listeners closer to Country’s biggest stars like Luke Combs, Carrie Underwood, Jelly Roll and Tim McGraw, who co-hosts the show’s Superstar Power Hour. Broadcasting out of a new state-of-the-art studio at the Hard Rock Cafe on Broadway in Nashville every weekday, Neal shares hit songs and behind-the-scenes stories and engages in genuine conversations with artists about their music and life. Known for her sincere curiosity and ability to forge authentic connections, Katie blends her love for Country music, pop culture, and everyday life, making her show a must-listen for anyone tuning in.

“The Rob + Holly Show”
ACM Award-winning duo Rob Stone and Holly Hutton bring the ultimate VIP treatment to Country radio, delivering access to over 1.3 million weekly listeners. From can’t-miss artist interviews to breaking Country news and behind-the-scenes stories, they bring fans closer to the music they love. Every Friday, the energy cranks up with the Friday Night Takeover, where Country’s biggest stars—like Lainey Wilson, Chris Stapleton, Cody Johnson and Jason Aldean—take control for an unforgettable ride. And with their Top 20 countdown, they spotlight the hottest hits in the genre, often joined by surprise Country music legends like Keith Urban, Kelsea Ballerini, Blake Shelton and Kenny Chesney.

INSTANT INSIGHT: Audacy now joins iHeartMedia’s Premiere Networks and Cumulus Media’s Westwood One in having an in-house syndication unit. More noticeable is the second use of the Infinity brand following last year’s relaunch of CBS Sports Radio as Infinity Sports Network. Both leverage the name and logo of Infinity Broadcasting, which was acquired by CBS in 1996, but would be used as the operating name of CBS’ radio division until 2005.
