Bryan ‘B-Dub‘ Washington will add a localized version of Skyview Networks’ “B-Dub Radio” to afternoons at Alpha Media Country “98.7 The Bull” KUPL Portland.
The local show will run from 2-7pm weekdays in the daypart that has carried the national show since October 2022. He previously served as APD/MD/night host at KUPL in the early 2010s.
Washington said, “I got my start in country radio at KUPL back in 2010, so stepping back into the studio at 98.7 The Bull — live, local, and loud every afternoon — truly feels like coming home. We’ve been looking for the right flagship, and Portland isn’t just where it all started — it’s where we’re planting the flag and building the future. I’m excited to elevate the content on all levels with this opportunity.”
Alpha Media EVP/Content Phil Becker commented, “B-Dub is one of country radio’s premiere talents. This move represents exactly what today’s strongest brands are built on — creativity, connection, and community. Having him live every afternoon is a major win for The Bull and a smart example of how local and national content can complement each other when you’re willing to rethink the traditional model.”
The move follows KUPL’s addition of Jamie Tanchyk to host middays following last week’s exits of Danny Dwyer and Jake Byron.
