Longtime St. Louis sports talk radio host Bob Ramsey has left 590 The Fan KFNS and is headed to News/Talk station KTRS. Ramsey has been hosting in mid-mornings with Frank Cusumano and previously hosted in mid-afternoons with Nate Lucas.
Ramsey has been on the air in St. Louis since 1992 and was one of the original sports talkers in the market. He was there when 1380 AM launched in St. Louis as its first all sports station and he was also on board at the launch of Hubbard’s 101 ESPN, the dominant sports station in the market for the past decade.
Ramsey is also the voice of the Saint Louis University Billikens and has held that position for over 35 years. He previously called games for the St. Louis Cardinals.
“He fits our demographics, he’s married with three children,” KTRS GM Mark Dorsey told The St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “Bob can branch out of sports, he’ll fit right in a news-talk-entertainment format. This is a way for us to show Bob’s other talents, he knows about much more than sports. He’s a hidden gem.”
