Syndicated Tino Cochino Radio Adds Two Markets


YEA Networks announces that nationally syndicated Tino Cochino Radio has signed two new stations to its fast-growing affiliate group.

With the addition of two Top 40 stations, KORQ/96 Q in Abilene, TX (3pm-7pm), and KHQT/HOT 103.1 in Las Cruces, NM (7pm-11pm), Tino Cochino Radio is now heard on nearly 40 affiliates across the U.S., including over 50% of the top 25 U.S. Hispanic Markets. The next-generation audio brand launched nationwide in 2018.

George Laughlin, CEO, YEA Networks, said: “The growth of Tino Cochino Radio in our first year of syndicating the show has been amazing, and listeners across the country are responding to the program in a big way. After just a few weeks on KLIF Hot 93.3 in Dallas, TX, Cumulus is already seeing a nice jump in the ratings. That really speaks to the power of Tino!”

Tino Cochino, Host of Tino Cochino Radio, said: “What a way to kick off the year!!! I’m extremely excited about our Abilene and Las Cruces additions. I’m beyond confident that our personality-driven product will connect with both markets and create engaging radio for all to enjoy.”

Hosted by Tino Cochino and co-host Raquel, Tino Cochino Radio provides Rhythmic and CHR stations with an innovative combination of topical and relatable on-air content, engaging, original video and social content, and a popular podcast.

Born and raised in Lubbock, Texas, Tino Cochino broke into radio at the age of 13 as an intern. At age 16, he was given his first full-time on-air shift and worked his way to the #1 night show in his hometown. Nearing his 21st birthday, Tino took his show to San Antonio, TX, building a buzz that took him to Bakersfield, CA, and finally, to Power 98.3/KKFR-FM in Phoenix, AZ, where he now hosts Tino Cochino Radio weekday mornings from 6:00am-10:00am. Tino also has produced television content for CW.
