Entravision’s syndicated “Shoboy Show” has added its first non-morning show affiliation as it will air in nights on Audacy Spanish CHR “Mega 101” KLOL Houston.
KLOL becomes the tenth station to carry the Edgar ‘Shoboy’ Sotelo led program that targets Spanish and Bilingual Rhythmic stations. It was also added at Grupo Audiorama’s Bilingual Hip-Hop “Más Flo 107.7” XHRST Tijuana/San Diego in April.
Entravision launched “The Shoboy Show” in August 2020 on its three “Fuego” branded Bilingual Rhythmic stations. Sotelo previously hosted mornings at CHRs “92.3 Amp Radio” WBMP New York and “97.1 Amp Radio” KAMP Los Angeles and Spanish CHR “Mega 107.5” KMVK Dallas.
Entravision Communications Corporation (NYSE: EVC), a leading global media and marketing technology company, announced today that the Shoboy Show hosted by Edgar “Shoboy” Sotelo is now also being syndicated in San Diego, CA on XRST-FM and in Houston, TX on KLOL-FM.
“Edgar ‘Shoboy’ Sotelo’s content continues to attract a wide variety of listeners, and we are excited to be rolling out this well-loved show into two new markets.”
The Shoboy Show is a feel-good entertainment experience that’s real, relatable and fun. The morning show is featured on Entravision’s Latin Urban Fuego Hot Hits stations and targets the new generation of bilingual Latinos who live the “Spanglish” lifestyle.
The Shoboy Show has been actively expanding its market base. In 2020, the show launched in McAllen, TX (KKPS 99.5 FM), Sacramento, CA (KHHM 103.5 FM) and Stockton-Modesto, CA (KCVR 98.9 FM) in August; in Albuquerque, New Mexico (KJFA 102.9 AM-FM) in October; and in Salt Lake City, UT (KBMG 106.3 FM) in November.
In 2021, the Shoboy Show debuted in Santa Barbara-Santa Maria, CA (KRTO 97.1 FM) in January, followed by Las Vegas, NV (KRRN 92.7 FM) and Palm Springs, CA (KPST 103.5 FM) in March. With the San Diego and Houston markets, ten stations now syndicate the program. Entravision has an exclusive sales agreement to represent the Shoboy Show nationally on a network basis.

“We are beyond thrilled to join ‘Más Flo’ in San Diego/Tijuana and the Mega 101 familia in Houston,” said Edgar “Shoboy” Sotelo. “Our show’s content attracts an extensive bilingual audience that reaches beyond the US borders and is perfectly representative of the demographics of each region in which it airs. We continue to have discussions with additional stations around the country and look forward to adding more markets to our show’s lineup in the future.”
