Erik & Jenny Back On Track

• Great news! Earlier this week we learned that the new Erik & Jenny morning show, featuring the newly assembled team of Erik “With A K” Smith and Jenny Lee, originally scheduled to launch on Monday, May 5 on Cox Media Group Country KCYY (Y100)/San Antonio, had been temporarily postponed after Erik’s son became seriously ill and had been taken to a Houston ER for treatment.

On Thursday, we received this positive update from Christi Brooks, Y100 Director of Branding & Programming, who tells RAMP, “Erik’s son is home, and he is back in the building.” Brooks said the show will now formally launch on Monday, May 12; however, Erik and Jenny will be on the air Friday in a limited capacity. “It’s not going to be a full-blown show,” Brooks said. “Just a chance for Erik to tell San Antonio thank you for all the love and support they showed a complete stranger.  We really had a ton of people reaching out checking on him and his son and asking how they could help. It was a pretty cool example of the power of radio and actually being local.”
