1210 WPHT morning host Nick Kayal has announced he has inked an extension to remain with the Audacy Philadelphia news/talk station.
Kayal joined the station in 2022, taking over morning drive when previous host Rich Zeoli moved to afternoons as part of a lineup revamp on the station. He joined after previously working in the spots talk format in markets like Nashville, Atlanta, and in Philadelphia, among others.
In a post on social media, Kayal shared that he had inked the extension to remain in the City of Brotherly Love.
“I am very excited to announce that I have signed a NEW, Multi-Year contract extension with (Audacy) to continue doing mornings in Philadelphia!” Kayal wrote.
Kayal added thanks and appreciation for station and company leaders like brand manager Greg Stocker and Audacy Philadelphia Vice President and Market Manager David Yadgaroff for their belief in him and for getting the contract extension finalized.
He concluded by thanking the audience for tuning in each morning.
“Last but not least, YOU, the audience! For trusting in me and tuning in every morning!” the 1210 WPHT morning host wrote. “We have set record ratings for 3 years, and it’s because of your devotion. Thanks so much! We’re just getting started!”
Kayal & Company — which includes Nick Kayal, Greg Stocker, and Dawn Stensland — airs from 6-10:15 AM on the station.
