Florida Man Reaches Ft. Walton Beach
• JVC Media of Florida announces the expansion of its talk radio brand, the “Florida Man Radio Network” to the company’s new Fort Walton Beach, FL cluster recently acquired from Community Broadcasters. Florida Man Radio will debut on Classic Rock 103.1 WZLB, with a target launch date of March 1 — becoming the third affiliate of Florida Man Radio, in addition to flagship WDYZ (660AM/105.5FM)/Orlando and WYGC/Gainesville-Ocala.
Florida Man Radio debuted in September 2019 and features Bubba the Love Sponge® from 6-10am ET, followed by The Justin Clark Show from 10am-noon ET, The Ed Tyll Show from noon-3pm ET and The Shannon Burke Show from 3-7pm ET.
JVC CEO John Caracciolo says, “The vision for Florida Man Radio was of a talk station that isn’t afraid to confront the big issues of the day while not taking itself too seriously. We’ve invested in great personalities that truly bring the attitude of ‘Unfiltered and Unafraid’ — it’s fun to listen to and we know it will be incredibly popular along the Emerald Coast and throughout Northwest Florida!” JVC Executive Shane Reeve adds, “Our collection of successful radio personalities on Florida Man Radio proves that talk radio is alive and well. We have seen such an incredible response from both our listeners and clients — this is just the beginning for the Florida Man Radio Network. We are thrilled to bring exciting talk radio to the Emerald Coast.”
Stevie DeMann, JVC Florida Director of Programming, commented, “Our shows all approach today’s volatile climate head-on with creativity, humor, and compelling content. We don’t hold back. You’ll hear clearly that our shows on Florida Man Radio unapologetically love America and support the men and women of our military. That mindset fits like a glove throughout Northwest Florida, especially with Eglin AFB and Hurlburt Field right in our backyard!”
