iHeartMedia’s syndicated “The Woody Show” based at “Alt 98.7” KYSR Los Angeles has announced the addition of Gina Grad to the show.
Grad will join Woody, Greg Gory, Menace, and Sebas filling the spot previously held by Renae Ravey until her exit in June. She has been heard in Los Angeles since 2006 starting as a producer for the “Tim Conway Jr. Show” on Hot Talk “97.1 Free-FM” KLSX. She would then spend time co-hosting mornings at Classic Rock “100.3 The Sound” KSWD, as a news anchor and imaging voice for 640 KFI, and spent eight years as a co-host of Adam Carolla’s podcast. She also does voiceover including ‘Rose’ on Street Fighter games.
Woody said, “Gina came highly recommended by many, including a radio hall of famer who will (and should) remain nameless…. ok, it was Mark Thompson (of Mark and Brian). I was already a fan of her work with Adam Carolla, and after meeting her when I was a guest on Adam’s show, I knew that she would be my first call if the opportunity ever presented itself. She’s a total pro and a perfect fit for The Woody Show.”
Grad commented, “I absolutely cannot wait to join The Woody Show! The team’s shared sense of humor, raw unfiltered take on society, and unbelievable work ethic make me proud to be part of this group. Woody is an absolute genius at what he does. I’m really excited to connect with listeners through questionable jokes, unapologetic opinions, and some truly insane stories from a lifetime of acting before thinking… I’m all in!”
iHeartMedia SVP/Rock & Alternative and KYSR Program Director Lisa Worden added, “Gina brings an incredible wealth of talent and experience. Combine that with her really fun, no-holds-barred attitude, and poof — we’ve found our next star to join the already all-star cast of The Woody Show. We’re all beyond excited to have Gina on board, ready to entertain LA and OC once again!”
