7 Mountains Media has named Jeff Hunt the new Program Director for 93.5 WSBG in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, following the resignation of longtime programmer Danny Ocean.
Hunt, who also serves as Program Director for Bigfoot Country 96.7 and 97.3, announced the add on his social media account, saying he is “extremely grateful” to 7 Mountains Media for entrusting him with leadership of the heritage Top 40 station.
“While I’m very sad to see my good friend Danny Ocean resign his post as program director of 93.5 SBG, I’m very happy to announce that I’ll be taking the reins as SBG’s new program director,” Hunt wrote in a Facebook post. “I’m extremely lucky to have worked with Danny over the past two years and I’m extremely grateful to 7 Mountains Media for their belief in me to take the reins of such a great heritage station.”
Hunt has been with 7 Mountains Media for several years, helping to shape the programming and branding of the company’s country outlets in northeast Pennsylvania. In addition to his on-air and programming responsibilities, Hunt has played a key role in local community engagement initiatives across the region.
The change comes weeks following Ocean resigning from the job at 93.5 WSBG after joining the station in December of 2023. Known for his creative approach and connection with listeners, Ocean built a reputation as one of the most well-liked and collaborative programmers in the region.
“This has been one of the best radio experiences of my career,” Ocean said in a statement last week. “I give all the credit to the amazing staff in Stroudsburg. Many thanks to 7MM Owner Kristin Cantrell, Chief Programming Officer JC Burton, former COO Jim Loftus, and former Market Manager Pat Lincoln, who all played a big part in our success at SBG.”
Seven Mountains Media, which operates a range of formats across Pennsylvania and New York, has maintained a steady expansion of its brand portfolio in recent years.
