The Spear Launches & Lands In Tallahassee
• After weekend of stunting with festive Christmas music, iHeartMedia Classic Hip Hop WTLY-1270 AM/Tallahassee has been reborn as Sports-Talk 96.5 The Spear.
Tallahassee is home to a variety of elite sports programs, both high school and college, and with already established partnerships with Florida State University (FSU) and Learfield, the name “The Spear” symbolizes iHeartMedia Tallahassee’s commitment to the fans, alumni, athletes, coaches, and faculty of one of America’s best universities.
“Tallahassee has been without a full-time sports radio station for over a year,” said Paul Rogers, Market President of iHeartMedia Tallahassee. “The fans deserve a radio station that highlights the numerous elite athletic programs here, and 96.5 The Spear is that station. We just staked our claim on the sport’s real estate here in Tallahassee, and now it’s time to build the stadium with the support of Tallahassee sports fans.”
The Spear’s weekday line-up looks like this — 6-9am: 2 Pros and a Cup of Joe; 9am-noon: The Dan Patrick Show; noon-3pm: The Herd with Colin Cowherd; 3-6pm: The Doug Gottlieb Show; 7-10pm: The Odd Couple with Chris Broussard & Rob Parker.
