Audacy News 1080 KRLD Dallas is adding a localized version of Radio America’s Chad Benson Show to air from 12-3pm Central.
Benson had most recently been pulling double-duty at Bonneville’s 92.3 KTAR-FM Phoenix co-hosting afternoons until January in addition to his syndicated show, which is fed daily from 9am-12pm eastern and again from 6-9pm. He has previously hosted shows at the UK’s “talkRadio”, KNWS Palm Springs, and KTSA San Antonio. He also was Executive Producer of the “Robert W. Morgan” show at Oldies KRTH Los Angeles in the 1990s and has voiced multiple cartoon characters.
KRLD Brand Manager/Audacy News/Talk Format Vice President Drew Anderssen commented, “We know our listeners trust KRLD for news updates, and now more than ever, where you get your information matters. We’re excited to bring Chad and his wildly popular show to KRLD and deliver trusted news and insights to our listeners. His conversational, informative and funny takes on issues will be a refreshing addition to our weekday programming.”
Benson followed, “I’m so excited to be a part of KRLD, a legendary station with a long history in DFW and North Texas. I look forward to connecting with listeners about the biggest issues we’re facing today.”
KRLD will continue to feature all-News programming from 6am to 12pm and from 3-10pm. The station carries the Dave Ramsey Show and Our American Stories overnight.
