Boston Radio: Jason Wolfe Joins Sportstalk Boston

Jason Wolfe
Jason Wolfe, the former top executive in Boston for Entercom New England, has joined SportstalkBoston.com as chief content officer, according to The Boston Business Journal.

Wolfe's first day on the job is April 10. He joins former colleague Glenn Ordway, a long-time fixture in Boston sports radio who was jettisoned from the afternoon drive-time slot at WEEI last year.

Officially launched this week, Sportstalkradioboston.com is an online broadcaster featuring Ordway as well as many of his former guests — including former Boston College and NFL players Fred Smerlas and Steve DeOssie as well as local radio personality Pete "The Meat" Sheppard — who were regulars on "The Big Show," the long-time afternoon program slotted on WEEI. The new venture's primary program, "Big Show Unfiltered," runs from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. and can be accessed through a traditional web browser.

In February 2013, Ordway announced he was leaving WEEI, owned by Entercom, after more than 20 years as a broadcaster and producer at the station.

His departure from "The Big Show" was part of a broader shakeup at the local sports-radio network, a key player in an increasingly competitive sports-media community in Boston.
