“Smokin’ Tony Richards joins the Rick & Sasha Show

Rick And Sasha… & Tony — Cumulus Media’s Westwood One announces the Rick and Sasha show is continuing its expansion with yet another key programming addition — legendary broadcaster, programmer and production guru “Smokin'” Tony Richards has joined the Urban AC morning show, which is now on 25-plus stations.

Richards (pictured) is an award-winning major market drive time personality and programmer with previous stints in New York, Houston, Philadelphia, DC and Chicago. “This show is going to the moon, and I want to be a part of it,” he said. “Rick and Sasha are two people who I feel are the future of radio. I am here unselfishly to help the team make it happen.” Rick and Sasha GM and co-creator Gary Bernstein says, “Tony wears so many hats extremely well. He is a brilliant broadcaster, programmer, producer, creative force, as well as an energetic and experienced voice in the room. His talents will immediately be felt on the show.”

Host Rick Party commented, “Tony was instrumental in giving me the name ‘Rick Party,’ and mentored me early in my career. Adding Tony gives us even more ammo so we can establish a whole new standard for great Urban AC radio.” Sasha added, “I’m very excited to have Tony on the team and look forward to being able to capitalize on his many years of experience to help grow our brand to even greater heights!” To find out more about the Rick and Sasha show, contact Todd Alan at 212-735-1107 or [email protected].
