Tom Griswold, Host, The BOB & TOM Show, said: “It took us longer to find Bill Kelly’s phone number at Cumulus-Youngstown --  than it did for him to say “YES”, when he learned The BOB & TOM Show was available. And Bud Walters was an early adopter of The BOB & TOM Show… so, it’s great to be working with him in Owensboro. It's such a pleasure to work with people who get what we're out there doing every day. So, here it comes... more listeners, more money, and more fun for everyone!”

John Kesler, Chief Operating Officer, The BOB & TOM Show, said: We’re thrilled to welcome Woof Boom to The BOB & TOM Show family. We are especially pleased to work with Bud Walters’ Cromwell Group again. Somerset, Kentucky is a new market for us  -- and we have a strong track record with its sister station, Double Q, in Lexington.

The new stations in both Youngstown and Delaware, Ohio are heritage markets for us, and I know that the staffs there are excited to make even more money with our show in their cities.”

J. Chapman, Owner, Woof Boom Radio, said: “When we learned BOB & TOM might be available for 104.9 The Eagle, we didn’t think twice. We grabbed it. The show has performed for nearly 20 years in Lima. We look forward to continuing the history and growing our revenue with BOB & TOM on WEGE, the Eagle.”

Bill Kelly, Vice President/Market Manager, Cumulus Youngstown, OH, said: “We’re excited that The BOB & TOM Show was made available to Y-103. It’s a great addition to our station. Probably should have happened earlier. The BOB & TOM Show will make our great radio station even greater. Here’s to a long association.”

The BOB & TOM Show is exclusively distributed by Westwood One and airs live weekday mornings from 6am-10am Eastern on 103 stations across the U.S. and on the American Forces Network worldwide. Inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame, The BOB & TOM Show features comedy, news, sports, lifestyle content, and interviews with today’s top actors, celebrities and newsmakers. The show is America’s leading media outlet for the best and developing comedians on the circuit.
