Cumulus Media’s “103.3 Country” WKDF Nashville has announced it will add Silverfish Media’s “Big D & Bubba” for mornings starting Monday, October 18.
Big D & Bubba’s show originates from Nashville and will air on WKDF from 4-10am weekdays. The Show features Derek ‘Big D’ Haskins, Sean ‘Bubba’ Powell, Silverfish Media President/ producer Patrick Thomas and Silverfish’s Director of Programming Jessica ‘Carsen’ Humphreville. The show previously aired in Nashville on iHeartMedia’s 97.9 WSIX from 2003 to 2011 in afternoons.
Big D & Bubba replaces “Morning Koffy” on WKDF. Paul Koffy and Jasmine Sadry took over the WKDF based syndicated slot in May 2020 until their exit at the end of September. While “Big D & Bubba” will air on WKDF, WKHX Atlanta’s “Kincaid and Dallas” replaced “Morning Koffy” on all of the affiliates this past Monday.
CUMULUS MEDIA announces that its Nashville Country music station 103.3 Country/WKDF-FM has added the Big D & Bubba radio show to its weekday morning lineup. Big D & Bubba will debut on 103.3 Country on Monday, October 18th, and will be heard live Monday through Friday from 4:00am-10:00am. This marks an on-air homecoming for co-hosts Big D and Bubba, who have both called Nashville home for the past 18 years.
Charlie Cook, Programming Operations Manager, Cumulus Nashville, said: “We are lucky that talent this good is right here in our backyard. We’ve heard Big D and Bubba for years and understand how hard they’ll work for WKDF. They are funny, relevant and artists love them.”
Allison Warren, Vice President/Market Manager, Cumulus Nashville, said: “We are thrilled to be working with the Big D & Bubba team.

We are confident our clients and listeners will be surprised and delighted when they tune into the Big D & Bubba show.”
“Airing live in mornings on 103.3 Country is the culmination of a ton of hard work,” said Bubba, Co-Host, Big D & Bubba. “Preparation and luck have met, and it’s time to cook this chicken!”
“This is our home,” said Big D, Co-Host of Big D & Bubba. “We live here. We have each raised our families in this town. Bubba’s a volunteer firefighter. We are the listener, and we’re living the lifestyle. Country is what we are.”“We believe in great content, and we want to bring our unique style to the city we call home,” said Patrick Thomas, President of Silverfish Media, the production company based in Nashville that produces Big D & Bubba. “We are so proud to be part of the team at 103.3 Country.”
