Sports talk fans in Nashville will be pleased to know that there are no changes in store for the afternoon drive show on 104.5 The Zone for the foreseeable future.
Cumulus Media announced on Wednesday that it has agreed to a multi-year contract extension with hosts Brent Dougherty, Dawn Davenport and Ron Slay, ensuring 3HL will continue on moving forward.
“Being able to push the 3HL path long term and do it with my teammates and friends in the best city with the best listeners in the country is such a blessing,” Dougherty said. “I’m pumped! Let’s roll!”
“It’s not very often you find the chemistry and culture that we are lucky enough to have right now at the Zone and on 3HL,” Davenport added.
Cumulus Nashville vice president and market manager Allison Warren and program director Paul Mason said in a joint statement that Wednesday’s announcement was cause for celebration.
“They have proven time and again to be a driving force behind 104.5 The Zone’s success, dominating the ratings and capturing the hearts of our listeners,” the statement said. “They have an undeniable chemistry—a lightning-in-a-bottle connection that brings our audience together.”
3HL airs Monday through Friday from 3-7 p.m. central. 104.5 The Zone is also the flagship station for the Tennessee Titans and Nashville S.C. of MLS. The station is also the Nashville home of the University of Tennessee athletics.
