Longtime sports radio host Tony Bruno has announced he’s launching his own sports radio network.
Bruno will relaunch The Tony Bruno Show from 3-6 PM ET as part of the Tony Bruno Sports Network, in partnership with Big Mama Radio’s Jason Jones.
“I want to thank all of my fans who have followed and supported me through the years,” said Bruno. “I am grateful to everyone who has encouraged me to return and who still want to hear my daily fun approach to sports and current affairs, which has been my forte for over five decades in broadcasting. This time, I’m bringing friends! I hear over and over again that fans are tired of X’s & O’s sports radio. I plan to bring back exciting sports talk radio again with a Florida flair. What better place to launch a new nationwide sports network than in Florida, a true melting pot of fans from all over the nation.”
The network has announced Pete Sheppard as its morning show host. Sheppard joins after his recent departure from ESPN Southwest Florida.
The current programming lineup includes:
7-10 AM: The Pete Sheppard Show
10 AM-12 PM: Defo & Lubie
12-3 PM: TBA
3-6 PM: The Tony Bruno Show
6-8 PM: Martinez & Company
Programming will be available on Live365.com and also on a newly launched app for both Android and iPhone.
Bruno previously hosted on ESPN Radio, SiriusXM Dan Patrick Radio, FOX Sports Radio, Sporting News Radio, KNBR, and 94 WIP. Additionally, Bruno was the voice of EA Sports Radio in Madden NFL video game from 2005 through 2007.
The Tony Bruno Sports Network will debut on Monday, October 30th.
