SiriusXM Executive Producer of Sports, Bleacher Report Radio and NBA Radio Director of Programming Dan Zampillo is joining Red Zebra Broadcasting as Dir./Programming for ESPN 980 in Washington DC.
So happy to be joining @ESPNRadio980 I feel honored and humbled to program such a great station.
Zampillo fills the PD slot that was vacated by Chuck Sapienza who exited the radio station in the wake of the controversy surrounding the cancellation (and later reinstatement) of the station’s new “Man Cave” morning show.
Zampillo’s radio background includes stints as PD of 97.1 The Ticket in Detroit and APD at WGN in Chicago.
