SiriusXM has announced a new golf show, ‘Rolling the Rock with Alice Cooper and Rocco Mediate,’ which is set to debut on Tuesday, July 2 at 6 p.m. ET. The show will air on the SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio channel (92).
“Rocco asked me to do this show with him, talking about rock and golf, and it could not be a more perfect fit,” said Cooper in a release. “We‘ve known each other a long time. We’ve played in many tournaments together. He’s a frustrated rocker and I’m a frustrated golfer. It’s a match made on the fairway to heaven. It’s an anything goes show that is all improv – we have no idea what we’re going to talk about until we start talking. We’re quite literally just ‘rolling the rock.’”
“Alice and Rocco are larger-than-life personalities with a deep mutual love of golf and music, and on SiriusXM they have a platform to share their passion for both with our audience,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “When you bring together two people who are among the best at what they do and give them the freedom to create a show that truly showcases their personalities and perspectives, you get dynamic and compelling programming. If you are into golf, music or both, this is a show you don’t want to miss.”
Cooper, a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, says he has played six days a week for the last 30 years and is a four handicap. Mediate is currently a member of the PGA TOUR Champions who joined the PGA Tour in 1986 and has won ten times between the two tours in his career.
