After conducting a search for a new local morning show, SummitMedia has moved YEA! Networks’ Tino Cochino Radio to mornings on Rhythmic CHR’s “Hot 98.1” WHZT Williamston/Greenville SC and “Hot 104.5” WKHT Knoxville TN.
Tino Cochino Radio moves from afternoons at WKHT and nights on WHZT to fill the morning show opening created by Dex Mitchell and Barbie T Whitmire’s move to Cox CHR 95.1 WAPE Jacksonville at the end of January.
The YEA Networks nationally syndicated Tino Cochino Radio show is movin on up at two Summit Media stations.
Tino and the crew have been on the air in afternoons & nights at HOT 104-5 WKHT-FM Knoxville TN and HOT 98-1 WHZT-FM Greenville SC for the last year. The show has been a huge ratings success in both markets and as a result is getting a well deserved upgrade to mornings.
TCR host Tino commented “I’m thrilled with the trajectory of our show. We truly feel TCR has evolved and mornings are where we belong. I’m glad Randy Chase and Maurice Devoe share the same belief.”
