Millikan Now Asst. Brand Mgr. @ Detroit’s Ticket
• Audacy announces the promotion of Tom Millikan to Assistant Brand Manager of WXYT (97.1 The Ticket)/Detroit. Millikan will retain his existing role as Executive Producer of The Morning Show with Stoney and Jansen.
“Tom has done an outstanding job as an executive producer and has played a vital role in the success of the station,” said Debbie Kenyon, SVP/Market Manager, Audacy Detroit. “He’s very deserving of this promotion and we look forward to even greater success with Tom in his new role.”
Millikan started his career in sports radio in 1998 as an intern at WDFN-AM. He joined 97.1 The Ticket in 2012 as Executive Producer and served as the station’s affiliate relations manager for the Detroit Tigers, Lions, Red Wings and Pistons throughout the state of Michigan. Millikan also helped to manage University of Michigan athletics on sister station WWJ News Radio 950.
“Throughout my 20+ years in radio, I’ve been blessed with countless memories of championships and pure joy,” said Millikan. “I’m living out a dream. I wanted to work in sports radio since the format exploded in the early ’90s and I’ve been blessed by the tutelage of all of my co-workers and peers. I was born and raised in Detroit, and Detroit sports are part of my DNA. Listeners might not agree with my opinions or show content all of the time, but I genuinely try to produce shows that Detroit sports fans want every single day.”
