• iHeartMedia Classic Rock 101.5 WIBA/Madison, WI proudly welcomes Wisconsin radio icon John “Sly” Sylvester back into the family, this time to do afternoon drive. “We’re thrilled to bring Sly back to the place his amazing career began,” said Van Edwards, PD of WIBA. “101.5 WIBA-FM is clearly the perfect place for Sly. It always has been, and always will be.”

Sylvester famously made a name for himself on WIBA from 1988 until 1997, when he made the transition to Talk radio and spent the next 15 years on Mid-West Family’s former WTDY-AM (now Sports-Talk WOZN). He most recently did mornings on Big Radio Mainstream Rock WWHG (105.9 The Hog) in neighboring Evansville, WI. Keith Bratel, Market President for iHeartMedia Madison commented, “101.5 WIBA-FM has amazing on-air personalities that are the best of the best in Madison radio. We’re extremely excited to add Afternoons with Sly to an unbeatable lineup that also includes The Bob & Tom Show, Van Edwards and Sixx Sense with Nikki Sixx for our listeners.” Sylvester said, “Even years after I left WIBA-FM, listeners come up to me and say ‘I miss you on 101.5.’ It is such an honor to be back home. 101.5 WIBA-FM is a station that not only has a rich heritage, but continues to thrive after 48 years of rockin’ Madison.”
