Guaranty Media Sports “ESPN 104.5” WNXX Jackson/104.9 KNXX Donaldsonville LA morning host T-Bob Hebert is departing the station at the end of the week to join Barstool Sports in Chicago.
Hebert, the son of former New Orleans Saints quarterback turned WWL New Orleans afternoon host Bobby Hebert, began his radio career at Guaranty Media in 2014 in sales after playing football at LSU and briefly with the St. Louis Rams. He would then host mornings on “ESPN 1350” WWWL and nights on WWL New Orleans before returning to Baton Rouge in 2017 to co-host “Off The Bench” in mornings from 7-10am first with Jordy Culotta and since 2021 with Jacob Hester. He also has hosted podcasts and streaming video shows for Colin Cowherd’s “The Volume” network, the Stadium network, and has been co-hosting a streaming video show with Jim Rome.
Hebert commented, “I am so grateful for the 18 years I have spent here in Louisiana. I want to thank everyone I’ve ever worked with on Off the Bench and all of its amazing iterations. Special thanks to Rivers, Taylor, Alondra, Danny, Nathan, Mario, Jordy, and everyone else. I want to thank Dianne Newman and WWL for giving me an opportunity I did not deserve. I want to thank Guaranty for bringing me in and allowing me to host the morning show. I want to thank Matt Moscona for bringing me into the realm of Whiskey and Wine and giving me memories and friendships that I will cherish until the day I die. I want to thank Jake Hester for joining me in my time of need and pushing OTB up to the seventh-ranked mid-market local morning sports talk show! Finally, I want to thank every single person who has chosen to spend their time with us these last few years. I know our time is precious, and I do not take for granted all those who spent so many mornings laughing and talking with us through the years.”
WNXX/KNXX Program Director Matt Moscana said, “I’m thrilled for T-Bob. He is authentic to the core and that it what makes him a unique talent. He made our radio station better and I’m forever grateful for that. Barstool’s gain is our loss. I’m going to miss him.”
Guaranty Media VP/GM Gordy Rush added, “We are thrilled for T-Bob Hebert as he embarks on this incredible opportunity with Barstool Sports, a national brand that will undoubtedly benefit from his talent and charisma. While we are excited about his future, we are also saddened to see him leave the Guaranty family after an incredible run. T-Bob has been an integral part of our team, and his presence will be greatly missed. We wish him all the best in his new endeavor.”
