Cumulus Media has promoted Roxanne Steele to morning co-host at “New Country 93.1” WDRQ Detroit.
Steele has been filling-in on mornings alongside Bill ‘Broadway’ Bertschinger since Kristina ‘Krissy T’ Williamson departed last November. Steele has worked part-time at WDRQ since exiting middays at Audacy’s crosstown Country 99.5 WYCD in 2018. Steele has also hosted middays at “98.7 Amp Radio” WDZH Detroit, spent twelve years at CHR “B96” WBBM-FM Chicago, and had stints at 96.3 WDVD Detroit, “Fresh 105.9” WCFS Chicago, and “Power 92” KKFR Phoenix in her career.
WDRQ has also swapped out midday voicetrackers as 96.3 KSCS Dallas’ Rachel Ryan takes over the shift from 95.5 WFMS Indianapolis’ Jenna Rae.
CUMULUS MEDIA announces that it has appointed Roxanne Steele as Co-Host of the Broadway In The Morning radio show on Detroit Country station WDRQ-FM/New Country 93.1. Steele joins Bill “Broadway” Bertschinger, Host of Broadway In The Morning, which airs Monday through Friday from 5:00am-10:00am. Steele has served as a part-time talent for New Country 93.1 since 2018. Prior to that, she was On-Air Host, Middays, on Audacy’s WYCD-FM in Detroit. She was also on-air for 12 years with CBS Radio Chicago, as Afternoon Host on WBBM-FM/B96 and later, as Afternoon Host on sister station WCFS-FM/Fresh 105.9.
