Houston Radio: KFNC, KGOW Shuffle Lineups

Steve Bunin, the former ESPN and Comcast SportsNet Houston anchor who now hosts a midday show on KFNC 97.5 FM, will move to Gow Media’s KGOW 1560 AM as part of a schedule shift announced Monday that will include shows featuring veteran Barry Warner and former KGOW host Raheel Ramzanali, the Houston Chronicle is reporting.

Bunin, who has been hosting a KFNC show with former NFL quarterback Sean Salisbury, will now work with Salisbury from 3 to 7 p.m. weekdays on KGOW and Gow Media’s Yahoo! Sports Radio network, company president David Gow said. The afternoon show is heard in about 65 markets nationwide.

KFNC, meanwhile, will rearrange its late morning schedule to add local programming in the time slot formerly devoted to ESPN Radio’s Colin Cowherd show.

Warner, who has worked in Houston radio since the 1960s and recently was selected for induction into the Texas Radio Hall of Fame, will work with YSR anchor and former KBME 790 AM host Dylan Gwinn from 9 to 10 a.m. weekdays.

Ramzanali, a member of the original KGOW staff in 2007, will return to the company to handle social media and digital media duties in addition to on air duties on KFNC. He will work from 10 a.m. to noon, and Salisbury will retain his noon-2 p.m. slot on KFNC.
