Now positioning as “Annapolis’ Greatest Hits” and also heard on 99.9 W260BM Annapolis, WNAV has finalized its weekday lineup featuring Managing Partner Chris Roth in mornings, “Intelligence For Your Life” with John Tesh in middays, and Neal Ellis in afternoons. WNAV also carries US Naval Academy sports.
The station is also expanding its weekend programming with the addition of “The Yacht Club” hosted by Meredith Marx on Sunday mornings. Marx, who also is part of the morning show at Classic Rock “100.7 The Bay (https://www.thebayonline.com)” WZBA Westminster/Baltimore, brings her show to WNAV from Your Public Radio Corporation AAA 89.7 WTMD (https://wtmd.org/radio/) Towson, where it had been heard since 2019. The Yacht Club focuses on music from 1970 to 1991 with an emphasis on Yacht Rock staples. It joins a weekend lineup that also features shows from Charlie Stinchcomb, Big Tom Lawler, and Wink Martindale.
BMSC Media’s WNAV Annapolis is proud to announce the addition of “The Yacht Club” hosted by Meredith Marx to the station starting Sunday, May 22.
Marx, a well-known staple of Baltimore area radio, brings her show dedicated to the smooth sounds of the 70s and 80s to the station after establishing the show over the past 3 years at 89.7 WTMD in Towson, MD. Focusing on music from 1970-1991, The Yacht Club plays songs that you haven’t heard in years. Songs that make you laugh, make you remember and maybe shed a tear. She digs deep every week to pull the songs that you normally won’t hear anywhere else. Marx says that The Yacht Club is like a weekly cruise back to the 70’s and 80’s, “We aren’t just ‘Yacht Rock’ although there is a lot mixed in.”
Marx states, “First, let me say a huge thank you to Chris Roth for embracing this show, seeing it’s fanbase, it’s growth potential and uniqueness. I am thrilled to take The Yacht Club to it’s new home at WNAV. Great things are going to be happening at this station and it will be fun to be a part of it. I know The Yacht Club’s current audience will love WNAV as it blends well with what I play on the show already and vice versa. I cannot wait for more people to set sail with us back to the 70’s and 80’s, get reacquainted with those decades and even build the younger audience who are hearing these great songs for the first time. It’s a family friendly show for all ages and a great way to spend your Sunday morning. So, climb on board the yacht and set sail with me. As we always say on TYC*. LET’S GO! ”
The move continues the reinvigoration of WNAV since BMSC Media acquired the station from Pat Sajak at the start of the year. WNAV is the full service home of Annapolis’ Greatest Hits featuring Chris Roth in the morning, Intelligence For Your Life with John Tesh in middays, and Neal Ellis in afternoons as well as United States Naval Academy Sports. The Yacht Club joins a weekend lineup featuring additional shows hosted by Charlie Stinchcomb, Big Tom Lawler, and the legendary Wink Martindale.
WNAV Managing Partner Chris Roth says, “The Yacht Club is a natural fit for WNAV and Annapolis. We are happy to have Meredith’s program and enthusiasm with us here in the Sailboat Capital of the World as we build off the legacy left to us by Pat Sajak while continuing to enhance the programming to serve Maryland’s State Capital and beyond.”
“The Yacht Club” will be heard on on WNAV every Sunday at 10am and can be heard locally on 99.9 FM and 1430 AM in Annapolis and worldwide on WNAV.com and the iHeartRadio, Audacy, and TuneIn apps.
