Tino Cochino Scores Radio One Twofer
• Radio One today announced a sweet double clearance for Tino Cochino Radio, adding the YEA Networks-syndicated show in afternoon drive at Top 40 duo WNOU (RadioNow 100.9)/Indianapolis and KROI (RadioNow 92.1)/Houston. The addition of these two new stations brings Tino Cochino Radio to 50 affiliates, including eight of the Top 25 markets. The move follows a recent similar dual Indianapolis/Houston clearance for YEA Networks’ own Kidd Kraddick Morning Show.
In making the announcement, Deon Levingston, RVP/GM of Radio One Indianapolis said, “We think the vibe of this new show will really resonate in Indianapolis and Houston.” Pam McKay, VP/GM of Radio One Houston concurs, commenting, “The excitement and energy Tino Cochino brings to radio is just what you want to hear in the afternoon.”
Shawn Nunn, President of YEA Networks, remarked, “We’re excited about bringing another YEA Networks show to Radio One. Paired with The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show, listeners in Houston and Indy will have two drivetime shows with great personalities, content, promotions, celebrity news and chats. It’s a 1-2 punch for any Top 40 station today.”
Tino Cochino Radio stars (l-r): Producer Ronnie Ranson, Tino Cochino, DJ Nicasio and Raquel, and can be heard on WNOU weekdays from 3-7pm and on KROI from 2-6pm.
