Tyler Polumbus is joining Altitude Sports Radio for a new show with existing midday hosts Scott Hastings and Josh Dover for “P.H.D.“.
“We are so very excited to add Tyler to our new midday P.H.D. show” said KSE Radio’s SVP & GM Dave Fleck. “He’s more than just a former player, he’s a respected member of the community who’s excelled both on the field and in the broadcast booth. Having Tyler as part of Altitude Sports Radio, allows us to reconfigure our daily lineup, while adding a great voice to the station.”
P.H.D. will air weekdays from 12:00-3:00 PM, beginning Monday, October 24th.
During a recent interview with Barrett Sports Media, Polumbus said his love for the area would keep him in the Denver market.
“This has been a dream. I’m a hometown kid, I grew up here, played at The University of Colorado and for the Broncos, along with a few other teams. I’ve gotten to spend the last five or six years in this market. I don’t have any intentions of leaving. I plan on being a name that’s in this market for a long time. Just continuing to pursue whatever options might be there.”
Polumbus is well-known to the Denver audience. A Denver-area native, he played football collegiately for Colorado before embarking on an eight-year NFL career playing for the Denver Broncos, among others. He was a member of the Broncos during its victory in Super Bowl 50. He then served as the radio sideline reporter for Colorado football broadcasts. Polumbus exited from Denver’s 104.3 The Fan in September after a three-year run with the station.
The addition of Polumbus will slightly alter Altitude Sports Radio’s lineup. The station’s morning show — Moser, Lombardi, & Kane — will remain unchanged, airing from 7:00-10:00 AM. Chris Dempsey will now host Dempsey & Company from 10:00 AM-12:00 PM each day. He’ll be joined by Matt McChesney on Mondays and Fridays and Alex Rajaniemi on Tuesday through Thursday. The station’s afternoon show of Nate Kreckman and Andy Lindahl will see their show shortened from four hours to three, now airing from 3:00-6:00 PM.
