Cumulus Media Sports “104.5 The Zone” WGFX Gallatin/Nashville has announced the addition of Zach Lyons to its lineup to co-host “Blaine & Zach” from 1-3pm with former Tennessee Titan Blaine Bishop.
Lyons is the co-founder of Nashville sports blog BroadwaySportsMedia.com and hosts the podcast “Football and Other F Words”, which will join the station’s podcast network. He also runs the Titans e-mail list StackingTheInbox.com focusing on advanced analytics as well as opinion. He will also co-host the station’s Titans postgame show “Titans Talk Back” with Brent Dougherty, Lucas Panzica, and Kevin Dyson.
WGFX Operations Manager Paul Mason said, “The exciting on-air duo of Blaine Bishop and Zach Lyons will ignite afternoons on 104.5 The Zone, delivering destination sports talk at its best. Zach is very well-versed in analytics and will bring an interesting dynamic to the show alongside Blaine, a popular Titans alumnus. Zach is also a great addition to our Titans postgame show, and we are thrilled to have his podcast, “Football and Other F Words” join the 104.5 The Zone Podcast Network.”
Lyons added, “I am in shock that I will be living out a dream that I have had for decades. The fact that I get to talk shop with a legend like Blaine Bishop on 104.5 The Zone every day is just the cherry on top. Honored and grateful for all the support, especially from my wife Loren, and look forward to bringing listeners the best two hours of sports radio throughout the week.”
