Westwood One has announced a new timeslot for America at Night with Rich Valdes, with 25 new affiliates airing the show in some major markets.
The program will now air live from 9 PM to Midnight ET, moving up one hour from its previous live window.
Additionally, the station has added 25 new affiliates like WMAL in Washington D.C., KSEV in Houston, and KKAT in Salt Lake City. The new affiliates now mean America at Night with Rich Valdes airs in each of the top 10 U.S. markets.
“Thank you, Jesus! I’m super excited to be on all of these new stations in great cities, and welcome all of our new listeners to join our live late-night national town hall conversation and encourage them to call in on Open Phone across America,” said Valdes.
The addition of the new affiliates comes after a deal between Westwood One and digital outlet The Daily Wire came to an end at the conclusion of 2024. The company’s shows hosted by Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, and Matt Walsh departed national syndication, leaving dozens of stations looking for programming to fill the one-hour blocks The Daily Wire programs occupied.
