San Antonio Radio: KBBT Imports The Breakfast Club


Univision's KBBT 98.5 FM has announced the addition of Hip Hop giants Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee and DJ Envy to The Beat 98.5. The trio’s legendary show, “The Breakfast Club,” will air Monday through Friday mornings from 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. starting today.

The Breakfast Club replaces the recently departed Dan Cortez Show which is also in syndication and will air in PM Drive on Alpha Media's KTFM

“The Breakfast Club” originates from iHeartMedia’s Power 105.1 in New York and airs on nearly 80 stations nationwide. Known as the “World’s Most Dangerous Morning Show,” the Premiere Networks-syndicated program covers pop culture in all its facets, with appearances by such current and future greats of the genre, such as Drake, Kanye West and Nicki Minaj, as well as cultural figures from Jennifer Lopez to Arnold Schwarzenegger and Hillary Clinton.

“Univision San Antonio’s ‘The Beat 98.5,’ has always been the city’s home for Hip Hop. The program’s addition to The Beat 98.5’s schedule gives the station a morning show with unparalleled stature and magnitude in the world of Hip Hop, and will add even more luster to the station’s already stellar lineup of talent,” said Chris Morris, vice president and general manager of Univision San Antonio.
