Fox Sports Radio has reached agreement on a long-term deal with host Jay Mohr. The actor and comedian who joined FSR in January 2013, will continue to host Jay Mohr Sports for the network.
Mohr said, “I’m so happy to be on the air with Fox Sports Radio and iHeart Media for years to come. I have always been a huge sports fan, and obviously, I have a difficult time keeping my mouth shut. Now, for three hours a day, in upwards of 150 cities, it’s actually my job. This is a dream come true for me. The old cliché is true – Pick a job you like…I love this job and hope to have many more multi-year deals after this one!”
Premiere Networks SVP/Sports Operations Bruce Gilbert added, “Jay’s unique, lightning fast, high energy sports talk program is unique, interesting, funny and fun. We’re ecstatic that he has agreed to continue with us for several years to come.”
