https://i0.wp.com/radioinsight.com/wp-content/images/2023/03/broadwayfriends.jpg?resize=200%2C200&ssl=1Oceanic Tradewinds has announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership with United Stations to manage the “Broadway & Friends” Country morning show.
Oceanic Tradewinds took over management of the former “Bud & Broadway” in June 2022 (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/229644/bud-broadway-move-to-oceanic-tradewinds/). At that time Mitch English, Becca Walls and T. Wall joined incumbent host Jerry Broadway following Bud Ford?s exit in late 2021 to become a meteorologist for KTUL-TV Tulsa.
Broadway and Ford previously hosted mornings at 92.3 WIL St. Louis, ?106.1 The Twister? KTGX Tulsa and in the Dothan AL market at both ?B105.3? WECB and 95.5 WTVY. Oceanic Tradewinds notes that the show will soon move to a new base at an undisclosed Top 30 market station.
Oceanic Tradewinds’ nationally syndicated Broadway and Friends program, the fastest growing country morning show, is announcing a strategic partnership with United Stations Radio Networks. *The newly configured ACM and CMA award winning program is hosted by Jerry Broadway with friends Including Nashville Insider Sweet Becca Walls, National TV personality Mitch English, and radio icon T. Wall. The 30 plus station network recently added 6 new markets including Charleston SC, Amarillo TX, and Suburban Nashville, TN.
Gary Bernstein, President of Oceanic Tradewinds, says, ?This program will be moving to a brand-new flagship location in a soon to be disclosed top 30 market. It’s an exciting time to be expanding with Andy and United Stations. It’s a time of immense growth thanks to a rock-solid foundation of successful morning drive affiliations combined with some stations who are experiencing huge ratings spikes while airing the program in afternoon drive. With either drive, no one brings more consistent funny, fun, and authenticity than the all-new Broadway and Friends program.?
Show host Jerry Broadway says, ?I have always felt that our show was good enough to be a leader in country syndication. *We just needed to build the right team around us, which we have now , working with the combined forces of Oceanic Tradewinds and USRN. Our show was conceived, designed, and constructed on a simple fact: He who entertains the most wins. Now we are set up more than ever to pile up the wins!?
Andy Denemark, EVP Programming for USRN, says, ?Broadway and Friends is a program that everyone universally loves, especially the affiliate stations. The previous experience with Jerry and his team was superb. They get customer service, attention to detail, and entertainment. *It’s a rare package that is hard to duplicate. The show is already on a fast track to be doubling in size in a relatively short period of time.?
Broadway and Friends is delivered breaks-only so stations can program their own music. *For more info, contact Gary Bernstein at 508-245-1776 or gary@oceanictradewinds.com.
