Gow Media Sports “ESPN 97.5/92.5” KFNC Mont Belvieu/92.5 K223CW Houston is making a midday show change.
KFNC will debut a new show hosted by Vanessa Richardson and Paul Gallant on Monday, February 14 from 10am to 12pm to replace longtime Houston market host Charlie Pallilo, who departed the station earlier this week.
Richardson most recently served as a sports anchor and reporter for KPRC-TV Houston until departing at the end of 2021. She has previously worked in television in Cincinnati and Indianapolis and as a contributor to the syndicated Bob & Tom show.
Gallant returns to Houston after most recently serving as morning co-host at Bonneville’s “710 ESPN” KIRO Seattle from 2019 until August 2021. He previously hosted in Houston at 610 KILT from 2011 to 2019 with stints in weekends, nights and mornings.
Pallilo has been a staple in the Houston market since 1989. He first hosted at News/Talk 740 KTRH for a decade before moving to “Sportsradio 610” KILT in 1999 and then joined “Sports Talk 790” KBME in 2005. After leaving KBME in 2016, Pallilo joined KFNC in 2017.
