Your Warm Wake-Up Call
• Cumulus AC WRRM (Warm 98.5)/Cincinnati debuts a brand new morning show today — The Warm Morning Show with Jim and Amanda, featuring the newly minted wake-up duo of Jim Day and Amanda Orlando. They succeed the married morning team of Bob Goen and Marianne Curan, who exit after six years. Fortunately, both Day and Orlando were already in the building and ready to go — Day (left) was the Executive Producer of Bob & Marianne’s morning show, and Ms. Orlando (right) was APD/midday personality across the hall on Country cousin WNNF (NASH FM 94.1). Day previously did mornings at WHKO/Dayton, OH, KWEN/Tulsa, OK and WSM-FM/Nashville prior to joining WRRM last July. Before she joined WNNF, Orlando did mornings on WUBE/Cincinnati and WFMS/Indianapolis.
Dave Crowl, RVP/Market Manager of Cumulus Media Cincinnati, said, “We are thrilled to debut Warm 98.5’s new morning show with Jim Day and Amanda Orlando, two dynamic personalities WARM listeners are going to love waking up to. We want to thank Bob Goen and Marianne Curan for their contributions to mornings on Warm, and wish them all the best.” WRRM PD Brian Demaycommented, “Sometimes you just know! Jim and Amanda have obvious chemistry, they have both been a part of very successful morning shows — it’s time to put them together on Warm 98.5. Being able to move Amanda over from a few doors down the hall is an amazing coup!”
• Amanda Orlando’s big morning move across the hall now creates an immediate opportunity for [your name here] at NASH FM 94.1. As WNNF PD Chris Clare tells RAMP, “Amanda has been a tremendous asset to NASH here in Cincinnati. The opportunity for her to move down the hall to WRRM and team with Jim Day returns her to the daypart where Cincinnati knows her best. They will do great things together. This now creates a great opportunity at ‘NNF for someone to step in and be our local producer for Ty, Kelly and Chuckand our midday personality.”
