D-C Radio: WJFK, Junkies Agree On Extension


Entercom announced a new long-term contract extension. John Auville, Eric Bickel, Jason Bishop and John-Paul Flaim, will remain on WJFK 106.7 The Fan in Washington D.C., weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. ET.

"Since 1996, ‘The Sports Junkies' have driven the sports conversation in Washington D.C. and we couldn't envision The Fan without them," said Phil Zachary, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Entercom Washington D.C. "As the unrivaled leaders in local sports coverage, we are pleased to continue our relationship with the team."

"It's an honor and a privilege to talk sports with our friends every morning," said Flaim. "We're so thankful to those that have supported us all of these years. After 23 years, we feel like we're just hitting our stride."

"We're excited to continue waking up Washington on 106.7 The Fan for many years to come," said Bickel.

Plans will be announced later this month for the program to be broadcast beyond Washington D.C. to affiliates across the Mid-Atlantic region. "The Sports Junkies" is consistently rated number one among Washington, D.C. men aged 18-49, according to Nielsen 2018 ratings.
