YEA Networks’ Tino Cochino Radio is moving in Tucson from iHeartMedia Hip Hop “Hot 98.3” KOHT to CHR “93.7 KRQ” KRQQ.
Cochino will continue to be heard in evenings in the market airing on KRQQ from 7-11pm replacing iHeart voicetracker Letty B in the daypart. KOHT will pickup United Stations’ Bootleg Kev Show to replace Cochino.
It’s upgrade season for the YEA Networks nationally syndicated Tino Cochino Radio show. Last week the TCR team found a new home in Dallas on iHeart Media KHKS-FM.
This week Tino and the crew are upgrading again, this time in Tucson. iHeart Media Senior Vice President Of Programming Nick Bruns said:
“Tino Cochino Radio has already proven that they can own nights since they’ve been on sister-station Hot 98.3 (KOHT FM), so it’s going to be a lot of fun to watch what they do on the legendary 93.7 KRQ (KRQQ-FM)”
TCR takes over nights 7-11p on the Top 40 starting Monday. As he was posting the “Morgan Wallen assisted announcement video“, Tino Cochino Radio host Tino added: “When we first launched our syndication in Phoenix it was a goal to also air in Tucson. The fact that we’ve now graduated to the biggest station in the 5-2-0 is fulfilling to say the least. Thank you to Tony Manero, the man responsible for giving me my radio name for his continued support, Nick Bruns, and everyone at iHeart for their belief in TCR.”
