Wichita’s ‘Sports Daily’ Adds TV To Radio
• Audacy Sports-Talk KFH Radio (KFH-AM/K248CY)/Wichita and local CBS affiliate KWCH-TV (12 News) this week kicked off a partnership that now features a video simulcast of KFH Radio’s long-running Sports Daily on 12 News’ streaming service, 12 News Connected. Sports Daily, hosted by Jacob Albracht and Tommy Castor, airs weekdays from 9-11am CT.
“We’re delighted to expand the reach of our wildly popular morning show, Sports Daily, and introduce the program to a broader audience in video form,” said Tony Duesing, Operations and Brand Manager, KFH Radio. “Jacob and Tommy have a unique chemistry that resonates with Wichita’s biggest sports fans, and now viewers can enjoy their insights and banter on 12 News Connected every weekday morning.”

Wichita native Castor (right) joined Sports Daily in August 2022. He’s very familiar to the market for his 15 years on Wichita radio, most notably a decade with iHeartMedia Top 40 KZCH (Channel 96.3). He currently serves as VP of Sales for Audacy Wichita.
“Sports Daily is a great addition to our local streaming portfolio,” said David Herrmann, VP/GM of KWCH. “As the leader in local news, weather and sports, 12 News is always looking to add exceptional local content to our platforms. Sports Daily has been a staple of sports radio since former 12 News sportscaster Bruce Haertl launched the show. We’re happy to work with Jacob and Tommy as they build upon the success of Wichita’s longest-running local sports program.”
