“We’re really excited to introduce this enhanced slate of programming to our listeners as we focus on the issues that matter most to Northeast PA,” said Ryan Flynn, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. “Nikki brings a breadth of experience in this market which we think will quickly build a sense of trust between her and our audience. Bob Cordaro, also someone with deep local roots, is an expert on area, the people, and local politics. I trust his candor and connection with our audience will quickly translate to a successful afternoon show.”

“Northeast PA has always been home to me,” said Stone. “I'm excited about this chance to open up conversation, talk about the issues that matter and have a little fun with the people I consider neighbors and friends.”

Nikki Stone has served as a traffic and on-air personality for the station since 2017. Other previous positions include commercial copy writer and announcer for Cumulus Media’s four radio station portfolio in Wilkes-Barre; afternoon drive host and marketing consultant for Shamrock Communications in Scranton, PA; afternoon drive host and sales manager for WGMF in Tunkhannock, PA; night drive host, promotions director and music director for Citadel Communications in Wilkes-Barre; and operations manager for WEMR in Tunkhannock, PA.

“I am incredibly honored to become part of the team at WILK and Audacy,” said Cordaro. “While it is a daunting task to replace the great Rush Limbaugh in Northeast PA, I feel privileged to be able to do so. I want to thank our management team here in Scranton Wilkes-Barre as well as everyone at Audacy for giving me this opportunity. We are going to have a lot of fun promoting a conservative commonsense agenda that works for the people of this area and our country.”
