There are a couple of new options for supporters of conservative talk radio in the St. Louis market, with the impending debut of “NewsTalkSTL” on the K270BW 101.9 “Real Talk 93.3” KRTK.
Jeff Allen, co-owner of Epic STL, the company that runs “NewsTalkSTL,” explains to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch the station includes well-known local voices and the Westwood One-syndicated “Dan Bongino Show.”
“When people tune in, they’ll hear voices that they know and trust talking about the issues that impact their city,” Allen said.
As for what the station’s lineup will look like, mornings see Mike Ferguson, who hosts afternoons on Zimmer Radio of Mid-Missouri talk KSSZ Columbia (93.9). Meanwhile, market veteran Vic Porcelli remembered for his time at KLOU and “101.5 The River,” will host late mornings (9-11 am).
Bongino will be heard on weekdays from 11 am-2 pm. The Key Networks-syndicated “The O’Reilly Update” will air from 3-3:30 pm. Tony Colombo will take over, the former co-host of “The Dave Glover Show,” will be heard from 2-3 pm.
Finally, former KTLK evening host and former Missouri Speaker of the House Tim Jones will host afternoons (3:30-6 pm).
