Denver radio host Johnny Wilde is expanding beyond the airwaves. Wiilde has launched The Scrollstoppers Show, a new video interview series focused on digital creators.
What We Know: Wilde hosts early afternoons on 106.7 The Bull (KWBL) in Denver and is heard on iHeart country and classic rock stations nationwide. He is a three-time CMA Award winner with more than 30 years in radio. The Scrollstoppers Show explores the stories behind viral content. New episodes are available now on YouTube and across social media platforms.
What They Said: “Radio has always been about connecting with audiences through great stories,” Wilde said. “The Scrollstoppers Show is an opportunity to learn from the creators who are doing exactly that in today’s digital world. Whether they’re reaching hundreds of people or hundreds of millions, I want to understand what makes audiences stop, watch, and engage.”
What Remains Unclear: It is not yet known how frequently new episodes will drop. Additionally, whether The Scrollstoppers Show will expand into a podcast format or pursue distribution beyond YouTube has not been announced. The long-term guest pipeline also remains unconfirmed.
What It Means: The launch reflects a growing trend of traditional radio talent bridging broadcast and digital media. The debut episode features Sebastian Garrett-Davis — Executive Producer of the syndicated Woody Show and the creator behind CartNarcs, which has topped 100 million YouTube views. Wilde’s move signals that radio professionals are actively building platforms beyond the dial. The creator economy is no longer just for influencers.
