Mundo Upped To PD Of KCMO/KC

• Cumulus Media has promoted Pete Mundo from APD to Program Director of Kansas City Talk KCMO (103.7FM/710AM). Along with his newly enlarged stripes, Mundo will continue to anchor The Pete Mundo Morning Show.

Donna Baker, RVP/Market Manager, Cumulus Kansas City, said, “One of the most fulfilling rewards as a leader is seeing the impact that someone as talented as Pete can make in just two years — growth of nearly 75% in audience since his arrival is the result of Pete’s daily focus, drive, passion, and hard work. This well-deserved promotion to Program Director is an opportunity to continue to expand the brand of KCMO Talk Radio for years to come.”

Mundo started his radio career at KWOX & KMZE in Woodward, OK, and was ultimately named News and Sports Director Omni Media Group in Woodward. In 2013 Mundo moved to New York City and worked for WCBS-AM, WFAN-AM/FM, CBS Sports Radio and FOX News Radio as a freelance anchor and host before joining KCMO in April 2018.

Mundo commented, “My time in Kansas City has not just met, but exceeded expectations both professionally and personally. I’m grateful to Donna Baker, Mike Wheeler, Bill Hessand Doug Hamandfor all of their support through these past two years. I’m proud that the morning show has become a destination for Kansas City-area politicos and I’m thrilled to be able to continue to bring a fresh and unique perspective to the rapidly-moving news cycles in Missouri, Kansas and Washington D.C.”
